MYSTIC LAKE (8) showed good pace over 6f in stakes class at Lone Star Park (Dirt) last time and defied all challengers to score by 2 lengths. Going up a level this time but she is up to the challenge. ST BENEDICTS PREP (1) wasn't far away in her two starts prior to sub-par seventh last time out over 7f in the G2 Bed O' Roses Invitational Stakes at Saratoga (Dirt). Definitely worth another chance. ALANI (2) had been in sparkling form winning two races on end but missed the frame most recently when fourth over 6f in stakes class at Delaware Park (Dirt). F Pennington who has scored on her four times retains the mount. Has claims on her best figures. ADMIRAL HOPPER (3) has been kept fresh for this since a disappointing tenth last start over 5f in stakes class at Pimlico (Turf) six weeks ago. Should be poised just off the lead. Sure to be thereabouts.
