Comment: Appears to be on the upgrade judged on two most recent runs; fair effort when beaten 3½l in January at Aqueduct in a maiden claimer; in for a $12.5k tag so down in class ($20k last time); could go close if confirming promise shown last time.

Comment: Wesley Ward team does well at Churchill Downs with debutants; stable making hay with their two-year-olds; should not be far away with trainer in good form and there is speed in the pedigree.

Turin

Jockey: Irad Ortiz Jr Trainer: Steven Asmussen Age/Wt: 2/8-7

Comment: Trackwork in the book allays fitness concerns; sire produces plenty of two-year-old winners; trainer is operating at a respectable strike-rate; fascinating to see how this one goes in the market on this first appearance.

Comment: Could not manage better than seventh at Fair Grounds three months ago in an allowance optional claimer; she meets the required standard ability wise; the trainer has enjoyed plenty of winners of late; should be thereabouts if excused most recent run as achieved allowance race success two runs back and has proved she knows how to win.

Comment: Creditable effort to finish second (muddy track) at Oaklawn Park 12 months ago in a stakes; has chalked up two wins from his last six; consistent lately; returns from a layoff; dropped in grade to claiming level so can make a bold bid.

1/1

Comment: Minor honours when 7-5 over 1m at Tampa Bay Downs (maiden special weight) on debut for this handler in December; came up short in three starts in Ireland; has had some time off; plenty of appeal.

Comment: From respected trainer; favourite but came up short at Fair Grounds 39 days ago in a maiden special weight; should figure.

Comment: Could not manage better than fifth at Keeneland when behind two of these three weeks ago in a maiden special weight; third two starts back and looks interesting.

Royal Suite

12/1

Comment: Promoted from fifth to fourth on debut over 1m at Gulfstream Park at 50-1 in February; related to Stakes winner Lovely Princess and has a nice pedigree (by Tiz The Law); likely to be thereabouts as has a pedigree which suggests there is more to come.

Comment: Nicely bred (by Justify) and not yet off the mark in four attempts although has finished third; unable to land a blow in seventh over 1m at Oaklawn Park (maiden special weight) 53 days ago; now over an extra 1f; booking of Frankie Dettori takes the eye.

Kentucky Flame

Jockey: Jaime Torres Trainer: Riley Mott Age/Wt: 3/8-6

Comment: Sire gets turf winners; shares a dam with Hasta la Byebye, a 6f winner; others look more obvious on paper; this one is best watched.

Pacific Front

Jockey: Luis Saez Trainer: James Toner Age/Wt: 4/8-13 F: 536-22

Comment: Was on the premises (runner-up, beaten just under 3l) at Gulfstream Park upped to 1m3f 53 days ago in a maiden special weight; has shown some recent improvement and consistent lately; likely to go well if building on most recent effort and her jockey excels from low numbers over this C&D.

Moringa

Jockey: Rafael Bejarano Trainer: Manuel Chavez Age/Wt: 4/8-13 F: 5-8659

Comment: Was held in ninth in blinkers last month when dropped back to 5½f at Keeneland in a maiden special weight; winless with run of consecutive defeats standing at ten; others more appealing as this is competitive.

Jockey: James Graham Trainer: Albert Stall Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 22-

Comment: Bumped at the start over 1m½f at Fair Grounds (maiden special weight) in front of Massarat putting in a solid effort to finish second over Christmas; this daughter of Justify looks the part on breeding; sire gets turf winners; returns from a break today.
