CORONA BATTLE (4) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 1. 5 lengths when fourth in a 1f contest at this track three weeks ago. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. BUGS GONE ROGUE (7) is a genuine type with four minor placings from four starts this prep. Continued the trend last time out when runner-up over 1f at this track (Dirt) after he was handy all the way. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. MDA MS BEAUTY QUEEN (3) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1f at this track, beaten 1. 5 lengths into fifth. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. SHEZ PHAT (2) finished 2. 75 lengths away in sixth at her last appearance over 1½f at this track (Dirt) on January 19 after she gave away a big start. Among the chances in what looks a nice race for her.
