PRINCESS IS OLIVIA (8) showed good early muster and fought on to finish second last start over 6½f at Turfway Park (Synthetic). Well placed and there is no reason she cannot salute. UP ON THE EDGE (10) last appeared when she finished seventh over 1m at Turfway Park (Synthetic) on December 9. Strong chance to kick the campaign off on the right note. CLASSY'N CONNECTED (6) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 0.3 lengths away in second over 6f at Turfway Park (Synthetic) when she was always up in the leading division. Steps up a level but she is good enough to take this out. AARALYN (9) is back from a break of 12 weeks. Raced below par at her only appearance last prep when 11th over 7½f at Gulfstream Park (Turf). Comes here with definite top-three claims.
