Verdict: DEVILS GOTTA GO appeals based on the strength of his latest effort and is a three-time course winner. Hemp Heaven and I Am The Game should also be in the mix.

Prince Shim

Jockey: Albin Jimenez Trainer: Scott Mullins Age/Wt: 8/8-7 F: 718-6

Comment: Finished last of six when close behind Forever Lasting last month (dropped to 5½f) in a claimer; a winner over this C&D; others more appealing.

Hemp Heaven

Jockey: Marcelino Jr Pedroza Trainer: Karyn Wittek Age/Wt: 7/8-10 F: -47

Comment: Seventh beaten 10l in a claimer at Turfway Park 53 days ago; he can be competitive at this level and one-time useful performer; may find this lower level more suitable (in for $5k); likely to be involved as shown he can get his head in front and has previously gone well fresh off a break.

Graceful Kitten

Jockey: Evin Roman Trainer: Tianna Richardville Age/Wt: 8/8-10 F: 68-636

Comment: Beaten 18l in a claimer at Turfway Park in February; could be at the extent of his ability and not won for some time now; running on dirt for the first time; a once useful performer but not at that level anymore and hard to fancy.

Devils Gotta Go

Jockey: Emmanuel Esquivel Trainer: Jonathan Nance Age/Wt: 6/8-7 F: 7-72835

Comment: Yet to win over 1m but multiple course winner; fair effort (beaten just over 3l) back down to 6f two weeks ago in a claimer; now a lower claiming tag ($5k from $12.5k) so down in class; strong claims as recent performance was encouraging.

I Am The Game

Jockey: Gabriel Saez Trainer: Manuel Chavez Age/Wt: 5/8-10 F: 034148

Comment: Finished eighth, beaten a fair way (Churchill Downs) last month in a claimer; useful in this grade; claiming value now drops from $12.5k; should figure as has proven capable of posting bigger numbers than these rivals and he was successful three starts back.

Mansfield Tiger

Jockey: Mitchell Murrill Trainer: Tim Eggleston Age/Wt: 6/8-7 F: -334

Comment: Behind Devils Gotta Go (Turfway Park) when beaten 8l three months ago in a claimer; better than this level in his prime and has a C&D record of three wins from six starts; the stable continues to be among winners recently; must be high on list as he has defied a similar absence in the past.

Comment: A previous winner here; finished last of seven over 6½f at Keeneland (allowance optional claimer) last month; eased in class with tag standing at $50k here; easy enough to take on.

Linguistic

Jockey: Carlos Barbosa Trainer: Daniel Leitch Age/Wt: 6/8-10 F: 48-75

Comment: A long time since her last win but useful at this level; beaten just over 5l when fifth of ten two months ago at Turfway Park, finishing well behind reopposing Caumsett in an allowance optional claimer; now racing on dirt for the first time.

The Kid Pataky

Jockey: Joseph Ramos Trainer: Randy Klopp Age/Wt: 4/8-7 F: 11-3

Comment: Career record shows her ability to win (wins-runs record of 8-19) and knows this place inside out (six course wins); favourite when third over 5½f here (handicap) three weeks ago on debut for this trainer; needs to be taken seriously.

Comment: Proved competitive when hitting the board in a stakes in September and likes it here (four wins); went down by 1l in October ahead of Evil Intentions when second in an allowance race; returns from a layoff; big chance given she has won after a layoff previously and her recent effort was encouraging.

Low Country Magic

Evalina

Comment: Good effort when 1½l third over 1m½f at Turfway Park (maiden claimer) six weeks ago; has taken a step forward the last twice but still winless and defeats stacking up (nine on the bounce); faces a tougher assignment this time so others more appealing.

Comment: Finished seventh, beaten 7l by Liltonytwophones four weeks ago at Keeneland in a claimer; this is his level; down in class now, dropping from a $20k tag; cannot be ignored as jockey's C&D record from low draws is useful and shown he can win fairly recently.

Verdict: XANDER is the pick of these. He is a distance winner and he knows how to win. Smooth N Silky, Hadley's Max and Meadow Value should also be taken seriously.

Hadley's Max

Jockey: Joseph Ramos Trainer: Randy Klopp Age/Wt: 4/8-7 F: 3111-5

Comment: Bumped at the start last month splitting El Peligro, Smooth N Silky and Itzcoatl in a claimer; managed three wins in his last four outings; has proven competitive in a race of this nature; has to be respected.

Xander

Jockey: Marcelino Jr Pedroza Trainer: Christophe Davis Age/Wt: 5/8-10 F: 318-66

Comment: Favourite but unable to make the frame when sixth in a claimer at Turfway Park two months ago; far from exposed and can be a player at this level; now a lower claiming tag ($5k from $7.5k) so down in class; shown he can get his head in front so has to be taken seriously.

Meadow Value

Jockey: Joseph Romero Trainer: Michelle Elliott Age/Wt: 5/8-3 F: 2-3339

Comment: Has winning form at this track; this is his grade; not disgraced when ninth of ten two weeks ago in a claimer; claiming tag drops from $12.5k; can be in the thick of things.

Dude And Jumper

Jockey: Rodney Prescott Trainer: Shawna Martin Age/Wt: 6/8-10 F: 5-5577

Comment: Generally struggled with a record of 1-13; not disgraced when seventh last month splitting El Peligro, Smooth N Silky and Itzcoatl in a claimer; not a betting proposition as this looks a fair heat.

Itzcoatl

Jockey: Alberto Burgos Trainer: Shelly Radosevich Age/Wt: 4/8-10 F: 2-3394

Comment: Split a number of these rivals in a claimer posting a respectable display to finish fourth three weeks ago on debut for this trainer; just the one victory on his CV; unlikely winner with this looking like a hot contest.

Sky Key

Jockey: Thiago Canuto Trainer: Terry Vaughn Age/Wt: 4/8-10 F: 58-009

Comment: Finished behind several of these rivals last month when beaten 13l in a claimer; generally modest form since maiden claimer success at Belterra Park in July; this looks a fair heat so hard to see him taking this.

El Peligro

Jockey: Christopher Emigh Trainer: James Watkins Age/Wt: 4/8-10 F: 64-2

Comment: Had a bunch of these rivals behind him over 5½f here (claimer) on first run for this trainer when close second last month; the stable has enjoyed plenty of winners of late; he can make a bold bid.

Smooth N Silky

Jockey: Felix Astudillo Trainer: Genaro Garcia Age/Wt: 3/7-13 F: 24-673

Comment: A course winner; was on the premises (third, beaten 2l) 20 days ago when separating a number of reopposing rivals on first run for his current trainer (bobbled at the start) in a claimer; must go on the shortlist.

Verdict: PERFECT SNOW could capitalise if the leaders go too fast. Cameo Rose, Cairnhill and Mischief Lily should also be in the hunt.

Perfect Snow

Jockey: Evin Roman Trainer: Paulo Lobo Age/Wt: 3/8-8 F: 79

Comment: Ninth of 12 in a maiden special weight at Turfway Park 44 days ago upped to 1m; sire does get winners on the turf; much respected as she drops into a maiden claimer for the first time and jockey does well from inside draws here.

Yammy Yammy Bella

Jockey: Andres Calleja Trainer: Marcelino Salas Age/Wt: 4/8-12 F: 65-70

Comment: Without a win after 16 runs; last of 11 in February upped to 1m at Turfway Park in a maiden special weight; has been on the scene in the recent past and easy to see her making an impression.

Jockey: Joseph Ramos Trainer: Susan Anderson Age/Wt: 3/8-8 F: 2

Comment: Well held on her debut finishing second at Turfway Park at 12-1 47 days ago; Connect gets turf winners; now moved up in the grades (in for $32k); could improve from her debut but will need to as could be a bit flattered by latest effort.

Comment: Has taken a step forward the last twice; didn't run too badly when out of the frame at Hawthorne (beaten 8l) in a maiden special weight last month; in first-time blinkers now; she has a shout.

Comment: Stepped up on her last two starts but still winless and defeats stacking up (12 on the bounce); beaten a long way in February (Turfway Park) in a maiden claimer; $32k claiming tag this time (up from $30k); others have more pressing claims as this looks a decent race.

Cameo Rose

Jockey: Vincent Cheminaud Trainer: Ignacio Correas Age/Wt: 4/8-12 F: 0-0

Comment: Came home tenth, beaten 15l, in February on debut outing for new trainer at Gulfstream Park in a maiden special weight; now drops into a maiden claimer for the first time so she's an attractive contender.

Comment: Never landed a blow on her debut when fourth of 11 over 6½f at Turfway Park at 11-1 38 days ago; sire does get winners on the turf; has a nice pedigree (by The Factor); drops to a $32k tag from $50k; pedigree offers room to progress and has a decent shout.

Comment: Has shown some recent improvement; second when 9-4 at Turfway Park over 1m (maiden claimer) in February; ought to be competitive if building on last performance and latest speed figure suggests she can mix it with these despite the higher tag.
