THREE TIMES (5) started at 9/2 last time and ran below expectations, finishing ninth and beaten 6 lengths at Laurel (Turf) over 1m. The engagement of Samy Camacho is a positive move. Will enjoy a drop in class so she is likely to play a big role. HOT DANCE (3) closed last prep with a sixth over 6f at Delaware Park on September 6. Worth noting that she opened the last campaign with a minor placing at Laurel over 6f. Good record at this journey with four wins and six minor placings from 15 starts and shapes as a key contender. RACETOTHEFINISH (1) is back from a lay-off after closing last campaign with a couple of wins, the latest over 6f at Fairmount Park on October 7. Right at home over this distance, with 10 wins and nine minor placings from 24 runs and is one of the prime contenders. WHEELINGNDEALING (2) is back from a lay-off of 11 weeks. Scored a determined win at her final run last campaign at Belterra Park (Dirt) over 6½f. Comes here with definite top-three claims.
