BASEBALL LADY (2) started at 8/1 last time on the back of a win at Aqueduct (Dirt) two starts ago but was below her best, finishing fifth over 6½f at this track (Dirt). Beautifully placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. L'ECLAIR (6) was well in commission last time but ran below expectations when fourth and beaten 3 lengths over 7f at Aqueduct (Dirt). Ready to bounce back. HOT GOSSIP (7) missed the placings two runs back then did well last start but found a couple better over 1m at this track, beaten only 1. 3 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. CELESTIAL BODY (8) was prominent at the bend and finished second last start at the first run back from a lay-off over 1m at this track (Dirt), beaten half a length. Will benefit from that outing. Capable of another strong performance.
