SOUTHERN CHEX (5) did a great job to score by 0.8 lengths over this course and distance last start to maintain her good form of late. Going up a level this time but she is good enough to play a major role. ROSE POOL (7) performed above expectations when resuming last time over 1f80yards at this track (Dirt), finishing 0.8 lengths from the winner in second after starting at huge odds. Expected to run well again. MINE THAT BIRD (4) was out of the money when resuming two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1f31yards at this track, beaten one length into fourth. Meeting a deeper field this time but he deserves another chance. PERRY LOU CARTEL (1) is back from a lay-off of seven months. Scored a determined win at her only run last campaign at Fairgrounds (Dirt) over 1f130yards. Under the care of new trainer Martin Rubalcava this prep. Has found a suitable race and is worth including.
