REFUGIADA (8) was well fancied when resuming last start over 1m at Mountaineer Park (Dirt) when second, beaten 2.25 lengths. Will strip fitter and can atone. WHISPERING SEA (7) turned in an eye-catching run over 1m at this track (Synthetic) last time, ridden back before coming home with a powerful run to finish third. Will be a major player again. ONE SPECIAL ACT (2) finished sixth last time out over 6½f on dirt at Gulfstream Park, beaten 9 lengths. First try on synthetic. Likely to progress from that last run. In the mix. XERCES (6) showed good early speed then led into the straight when fresh from a lay-off last start before fighting on to finish third, beaten 2.25 lengths, over 1m at this track (Synthetic). Sure to run boldly again.
