Golden Hornet

Jockey: Jareth Loveberry Trainer: Larry Rivelli Age/Wt: 6/8-10 F: /91-4

Comment: Last of four three weeks ago in an allowance optional claimer; represents a powerful yard and better than this level in his prime; he's a serious player.

Twirling Roses

Jockey: Mitchell Murrill Trainer: Eduardo Rodriguez Age/Wt: 7/8-10 F: 8-24123

Comment: Good course-and-distance record (five wins); producing fairly consistent form; fair effort when beaten 7l, finishing third of six in a starter allowance (Keeneland, muddy track) two weeks ago; easy to oppose as no longer in his pomp.

Comment: Finished last of eight in a claiming starter allowance 21 days ago (Oaklawn Park) on debut for this trainer; smart performer at one stage and has managed 11 wins from 36 career runs; can be on the premises with drop in class a positive.

Gavel

Jockey: Alexis Centeno Trainer: Larry Rivelli Age/Wt: 4/8-12 F: -361

Comment: Won by 3½l in a claimer three weeks ago; a proven winner with a wins-runs record of 3-12 and represents a powerful yard; Alexis Centeno a noteworthy booking; has proven capable of posting bigger numbers than these rivals so poses a threat.

Hatchet Creek

Jockey: Constantino Roman Trainer: Dino Dizeo Age/Wt: 7/8-10 F: 61-44

Comment: Boasts a creditable three from 17 record at this track and comes here off the back of a hat-trick; scored by 3½l over 6f at Fanduel Sportsbook And Horse Racing (claimer) in October; returns from an absence here; is a player.

Comment: Out of the frame (beaten 7l in fifth) over 5f here (claimer) three weeks ago; successful six times from 5½f to 1m but may have reached limits of his ability; his best looks to be behind him and unlikely to trouble the principals.

Jockey: Uriel Lopez Trainer: Earl Hughes Age/Wt: 7/8-10 F: 68-955

Comment: Beaten 12l (fifth) over 6f here (claimer) last week; a while since he's been in the winners' enclosure (last win in 2023) and perhaps looks to have to reached his ceiling; in for a $5k tag here, up from $4k last time; uphill struggle.

Comment: Lightly raced (this just his third race); finished out the back in a maiden claimer at Keeneland (sloppy track) three weeks ago; now a lower claiming tag ($6.3k from $30k) so down in class; headgear now needed to spark a revival, hard enough to fancy.

Remember The Maine

Jockey: Alexander Bendezu Trainer: Isidro Castro Age/Wt: 10/8-10 F: 66577-

Comment: Recent form hardly the most inspiring and possible that there's no more in the locker; last of seven (muddy track) in September dropped down to 6f in a claimer; returns from a layoff; couldn't be confident about him as no longer in his pomp.

Gita's Lad

Jockey: Luis Colon Trainer: R Young Age/Wt: 10/8-10 F: 115-64

Comment: A poor result at a short price when fourth 14 days ago in a claimer; operating at a lower level than at his peak and eight-time C&D winner; up in class (in for $7.5k); encouraging jockey booking; leading claims as was a bit unlucky last time.

Mister Charming

Jockey: Santiago Gonzalez Trainer: Ida Spagnola Age/Wt: 9/8-10 F: 754-83

Comment: Respectable effort finishing third (beaten just over 2l) in a claimer upped to this distance 21 days ago; could be at the extent of his ability and an infrequent winner; claiming value rises from $5k last time; now looks to be past his prime and hard to recommend.

U S Honour Nap

Jockey: Israel Hernandez Trainer: Dino Dizeo Age/Wt: 6/8-10 F: 213-53

Comment: Not beaten too far when third here in a claimer when ahead of Gita's Lad and Where'd The Day Go two weeks ago; ought to give it a shot as best speed figure over the past year reads well comparatively and lower claiming tag should make this easier.

Comment: Comfortably beaten into seventh at Fair Grounds two months ago in a claimer; better than this level in his pomp and hails from a good stable; higher claiming tag here so class rise to contend with; needs to be respected granted a bit more luck as didn't get the rub of the green last time and shown he can get his head in front.
