VIRASANA (8) was out of the money when resuming two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 6½f at this track, beaten 5.5 lengths into fourth. This is a nice drop in grade so she is a major player. CRUSHED ICE (2) scored an overdue maiden win last time out, getting home by 1.3 lengths over 6½f at this track (Dirt). Has a low draw and she looks sure to be in the mix. LITE IT UP LOUIE (11) kicked off this prep with a win two-and-a-half weeks ago, scoring over 6½f at this track. Capable of playing a big role. SHERBET FOUNTAIN (9) was in contention on the bend and finished second last time over 7f at this track (Dirt) when resuming from a lay-off, beaten a nose. It doesn't get any easier but on her best form she is right in contention.
