Verdict: SILENT PASSION is a firm choice. She has been running consistently well of late. Disgruntledpelican can give the selection most to think about.

Fromthewonderland

Jockey: Leo Salles Trainer: Patrick Dixon Age/Wt: 3/8-8 F: 9

Comment: Tailed off on debut at Woodbine at 20-1 two weeks ago; related to Grade 3 winner God Of Love and looks the part on breeding (by Ami's Holiday); should go close as has a pedigree which suggests there is more to come.

Comment: Attempts to score at the tenth time of asking but appears to be on the upgrade judged on two most recent runs; good effort when close up 15 days ago in a maiden special weight; should be in the mix if reproducing most recent effort.

Comment: Stepped up on her last two starts and has been consistent of late; not disgraced when fourth in a maiden special weight three weeks ago on debut for this trainer; first attempt on dirt; encouragement to be gleaned from latest effort so could take plenty of beating.

Doodle Dandy

Jockey: Amanda Vandermeersch Trainer: Lindsay Hoad Age/Wt: 8/8-10 F: 485P-6

Comment: Finished last of six over 6f here (claimer) 20 days ago; quite a while since she tasted success; jockey booking is a positive and Amanda Vandermeersch here for just this ride; has always come up a bit short at this level in the past so hard to fancy.

Frac Amour

Jockey: Kirk Johnson Trainer: Julie Mathes Age/Wt: 4/8-10 F: 333237

Comment: Not far behind Clarayouthebest when seventh here over 5½f (stakes) two weeks ago; she shouldn't be far away with drop in class a positive and didn't have the best of luck last time.

Gambler's Pose

Jockey: Leo Salles Trainer: Ken Albu Age/Wt: 5/8-10 F: 1851-5

Comment: Managed two wins in her last five outings; useful at this level; finished just behind Princess Bu Cherro when fifth in an optional claimer 27 days ago; is respected despite this step up in class.

Fort Erie

23:50

Runners: 7 Distance: 0m 5f 110y

Race Predictor

Form
EW Places: 1/5 ODDS - 3 PLACES

Verdict: It is hard to get away from ERNIE'S MARTINI. He could be the main beneficiary if the front runners go too fast, while Truly Mischief should also be taken seriously.

Truly Mischief

Jockey: Edgar Zenteno Trainer: Jeff Voyce Age/Wt: 6/8-12 F: 5251-1

Comment: Smart performer at one stage and bids to pull off a hat-trick; narrow winner of a claimer (stumbled at the start) 27 days ago; jockey does well from inside draws here so poses a threat.

Ernie's Martini

Jockey: Christopher Husbands Trainer: Kevin Buttigieg Age/Wt: 5/8-12 F: 3-F752

Comment: A course winner; not beaten far five weeks ago in a claimer; arguably the one to beat.

Where Is Essa

Jockey: Terry Husbands Trainer: Julie Mathes Age/Wt: 6/8-12 F: 16-43

Comment: Has winning form at this track; third two weeks ago, only beaten a neck, (had Paperback Hero and Mr. Marshall behind) in an optional claimer; could go well if replicating the best of his form and peak figure in the past year is the best in the field.

He's Fully Loaded

Jockey: Alexis Sanchez Trainer: Steven Cathcart Age/Wt: 6/8-7 F: 4370-1

Comment: Back to winning ways over 5f here (claimer) on first outing for new trainer when getting the job done by just under 2l 34 days ago; tries dirt for the first time; despite that Fort Erie success, only limited appeal.

Paperback Hero

Jockey: Brian Cheyne Trainer: Roy Agostino Age/Wt: 7/8-12 F: 261-34

Comment: Solid effort splitting Where Is Essa and Mr. Marshall two weeks ago in an optional claimer; has maintained his consistent level of form and knows this place inside out (eight course wins); a once useful performer but not at that level anymore and passed over.

Sehr Schoen

Jockey: Pierre Mailhot Trainer: Robert Warner Age/Wt: 5/8-12 F: 15815

Comment: Finished last of five three weeks ago in a claimer; on target twice in his last five outings; a few rivals look in good form so not easy to fancy.

Mr. Marshall

Jockey: Kirk Johnson Trainer: Eric Raghunath Age/Wt: 5/8-12 F: 267256

Comment: Beaten 5l just behind Where Is Essa and Paperback Hero in third and fourth here over 6½f (optional claimer) on his debut for new trainer two weeks ago; warrants respect with return to this trip a plus and his last run was encouraging.
