MYSTIC PLEASURE (7) was prominent on straightening and stuck on well to finish second last start over 6f in stakes class at Churchill Downs (Dirt), beaten 1.3 lengths. Finds a more suitable contest and can feature in the finish again. ELLEN JAY (6) is a talented type who recently returned from a break and made it three straight wins, scoring by 1.5 lengths over 6f at this track. Same scenario as the last success and will take beating again. CARA'S TIME (1) has progressed nicely in her last couple of runs. Finished second at this track (Dirt) two starts back then landed the prize by a nose last time out over 6½f at Listed level at this track (Dirt). Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. ST BENEDICTS PREP (3) finished fourth when resuming two runs back then did a good job last start but found one better over 1m at this track, beaten only 0.3 lengths. This looks a good race for her and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways.
