HOT DANCE (2) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second over 6f at this track after being in the firing line on the bend. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. HATEFUL (1) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 6f at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths into fourth. The engagement of Denis Vicente Araujo is a positive move. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. SPOILS OF WAR (7) was in the money on turf at this track two runs ago then backed it up with a win, also on turf, at this track over 5½f four weeks ago. Continues to impress and is a major player again. YUMYUM EAT EM UP (9) raced on the speed from the outset and went to score by a nose last time over 6f at this track (Dirt). G Whitacre has been the pilot at her last two wins. Don't underestimate.
