KONTIKI (10) is in top form with three wins on end, the most recent an effortless 12 lengths victory over 6f in stakes class at Thistledown (Dirt) five weeks ago. Should be prominent despite the awkward gate. Leading contender. IN HER GLORY (1) was a determined maiden winner last time out, scoring by a nose over 5½f at Saratoga (Turf). Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Inside draw will assist and she looks sure to be in the mix. PEACH TIE (4) wasted no time getting off the mark as favourite on debut over 6f at Colonial Downs (Dirt) five-and-a-half weeks ago. Will come on following that run and looks a definite threat. SMOOCH UP (2) built on a nice third two starts back in stakes class at Colonial Downs (Dirt) with a win as favourite over 5½f at this track (Synthetic) three-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by 9 lengths. Likely to be in the finish again.
