Verdict: SKITTLIEDAT is a strong pick. She is expected to confirm placings after she got the better of Jam's Paper Moon and Brand New Dance when last seen and a good pace up front will help her.

Lady Lemoncello

Jockey: Sergio Turrieta Trainer: Lacey Gaudet Age/Wt: 4/9-13 F: -576

Comment: Beaten 9l into sixth last month in a maiden claimer; tag drops from $25k to $16k here; one to take seriously as this doesn't look the strongest of heats and has shown she can be competitive fairly recently.

Princess Clemmie

Jockey: Sophie Brien O Trainer: Suzanne Stettinius Age/Wt: 3/9-4 F: 9-68

Comment: Out of the frame when eighth in blinkers 14 days ago in a maiden claimer; now eased in the grades (in for $12.5k); should give it a bold bid.

Skittliedat

Jockey: Caitlin Keil Trainer: Jr Robert Leaf, Age/Wt: 4/9-13 F: 673

Comment: Finished ahead of two of these rivals when third of six 21 days ago in a maiden claimer; higher claiming tag here so up in class; this doesn't look the strongest of heats so has a great chance.

Irish B Goode

Jockey: Nessa Burns Trainer: Diana McClure Age/Wt: 4/9-13 F: 7-5566

Comment: Bobbled at the start two weeks ago when beaten 15l (sixth of seven, behind Feel The Bolt) in a maiden claimer; up in class (in for $16k here, $12.5k tag last time); stamina to prove at this trip so only limited appeal.

Jam's Paper Moon

Jockey: Jasmine McGuin Trainer: Bruno Tessore Age/Wt: 4/9-9 F: 9-895

Comment: Held when fifth of six in a maiden claimer (stumbled at the start) 21 days ago; finished ahead of Brand New Dance but was behind Skittliedat; may still have more to offer with few miles on the clock; class dropper as runs for a $12.5k tag here; booking of Jasmine Mcguin takes the eye; entitled to respect if replicating best previous efforts.

Napolitan

Jockey: Juan Martinez Trainer: Mary Pattershall Age/Wt: 4/9-13 F: 236-64

Comment: Yet to open her account after ten starts and patchy form recently; unable to land a blow in fourth 26 days ago at Parx in a maiden claimer; in for a $16k tag here, up from $12.5k last time; tried over an additional 1f now.

Feel The Bolt

Jockey: Jasmine McGuin Trainer: David Mohan Age/Wt: 3/9-8 F: 6-37246

Comment: Problems at the start (bumped) over 5½f here (maiden claimer) when beaten 10l a week ago; winless with run of consecutive defeats standing at 11 and form has an up and down look to it; in for the same tag ($16k); up in distance by an extra 2½f here.

Comment: Wasn't beaten that far when fourth (beaten 5l) over 6f here (optional claimer) three weeks ago; multiple course winner but not always shown an awful lot since winning an optional claimer at Laurel Park in January; makes limited appeal as this looks a decent race.

Monster Mason

Jockey: Yan Rodriguez Trainer: Brandon McFarlane Age/Wt: 8/8-0 F: 7-7758

Comment: Behind Cactus when eighth six weeks ago at Pimlico in an optional claimer; a while since he's been in the winners' enclosure (last win in 2022) and form could be levelling off; a once useful performer but not at that level anymore and hard to make a case for him.

Southern Horse

Jockey: Matilda Burnham Trainer: Jose Corrales Age/Wt: 9/8-0 F: 2-4554

Comment: A proven winner with a wins-runs record of 7-33 but generally modest form since claimer success at Louisiana Downs in August; not beaten too far (5l) when dropped in distance last Sunday in a claimer; claiming tag rises from $5k last time; others have more pressing claims as a few rivals look in good form.

Comment: Finished last of four (Presque Isle Downs) three weeks ago in an optional claimer; performed at a higher level than this in his peak and resume shows that he is a proven winner (seeking a 12th career win); may be sharper for most recent run and likely to be thereabouts.

Cactus

Jockey: Ismerio Villalobos Trainer: Kieron Magee Age/Wt: 5/9-0 F: 84511

Comment: Has winning C&D form to his name; on a hat-trick after last win; he accounted for five of his rivals when in front by just over 1l at Pimlico last month in an optional claimer; has strong claims.

Freestanding

Jockey: Daniel Centeno Trainer: Richard Sillaman Age/Wt: 5/8-11 F: 53-5

Comment: Producing consistent form and this is his grade; far from disgraced (beaten 1½l) last month in a claimer; recent display was promising so he should go close.

Smitten Enough

Jockey: Jean Briceno Trainer: Hassan Elamri Age/Wt: 7/8-7 F: 379-7

Comment: C&D winner although not added to that in previous seven tries and a while since his last success; out of the frame (beaten 4½l in seventh) last month when behind Cactus at Pimlico in an optional claimer; a lot on his plate here and others more persuasive.

Comment: Bumped at the start when beaten 2l into third at 28-1 in March at Gulfstream Park in a claimer; moves down to an easier grade (in for $12.5k); recent effort was creditable so he should go close.

Competitive Saint

Jockey: Carlos Lopez Trainer: Bruno Tessore Age/Wt: 8/8-7 F: 08054

Comment: Not beaten too far when fourth here (stumbled at the start) 21 days ago in an optional claimer; he can be competitive at this level and classy performer in his prime; claiming value now drops to $10k; warrants respect as boasts the best speed figure posted by this field in the last 12 months.

Comment: Held in sixth in an optional claimer two weeks ago; one-time useful performer and his three wins have all been over this trip; hard to dismiss as finished second at Delaware Park three runs ago and he should benefit from return to this trip.

Whiskey And You

Jockey: J G Torrealba Trainer: Jr Roy Peacock, Age/Wt: 8/8-11 F: 325247

Comment: Finished last of seven over 7f here (optional claimer) 16 days ago; possible that there's no more in the locker and not won for some time now; down in class now, dropping from a $30k tag; not a great record second time out after a break and easy enough to take on.

Jockey: Jevian Toledo Trainer: Joanne Shankle Age/Wt: 7/8-11 F: 2182

Comment: Has won nine times here and record shows he knows where the winning post is (wins-runs record of 11-33); favourite and just beaten last month behind Pit Stop Man in an optional claimer; the stable is going well; arguably the one to beat.

Queen Of The Dance

Jockey: Yan Rodriguez Trainer: Charles Frock Age/Wt: 5/8-3 F: 3317

Comment: A winner over C&D; has proven competitive in a race of this nature; not beaten too far when seventh of eight in an optional claimer last week on debut for this trainer; claiming value now drops to $12.5k; a likely player now stepping up in trip and shown she can win fairly recently.
