INEEDYOUBABE (8) is a progressive type still in first campaign but off to a great start to career. Has racked up wins at her last three runs, the latest scoring over 1m1/2f at Laurel (Dirt). Won only start at the distance and looks a key chance again. LUBU (4) was fresh from a break of four months last start when beaten 2. 75 lengths into third over 6f at Mahoning Valley (Dirt) after she gave away a big start. Boasts five wins at this distance. Expected to run well. CURLS NITE OUT (7) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 10 lengths when fourth over 1m at Mahoning Valley three-and-a-half weeks ago. Has the class to take care of this field. WORLDLY BEAUTY (1) finished third at Mahoning Valley two runs back but was less effective last time over 1m at Mahoning Valley (Dirt), finishing 29 lengths back in seventh. Nicely placed to bounce back.
