RIOBELLA (4) turned in a sound effort last time but found one better at this track (Dirt) over 1m, beaten half a length. That run should have her rock-hard fit now. Good record at this journey with two wins and three minor placings from six starts and should prove tough to beat. SHIELDMEWITHPRAYER (5) scored by 0. 1 lengths last start at this track (Dirt) over this distance after she was prominent at the bend. Has found the frame in all three starts at this journey, including three wins. Should camp just off the leaders. Will give a great sight. REIGN CHAMPAGNE (6) last appeared three-and-a-half weeks ago over 1m1/2f at Oaklawn Park when she finished second. This is her first run for the Kim Puhl stable. Can measure up for the new barn. MY CAJUN LADY (7) turned things around last start and scored by 3 lengths over 1m at this track (Dirt). Likely to be there at the finish again.
