Verdict: BEACH DANCER looks set to capitalise if the leaders go too fast and has won twice over this C&D. Hot Middles and Don't Miss Out could also have a say.

First Elkton

Jockey: Joshua Morales Trainer: Chaz Rechy Age/Wt: 5/8-10 F: 2716-

Comment: Held in sixth over 6f here (allowance race) in August; returns from a layoff here; probably unlikely to trouble the principals as has not been seen doing much trackwork recently.

Comment: Has won three times here and showing consistent form; had two of these rivals behind her when runner-up at 12-1 (beaten just over 2l) last month in an allowance race; flying form of trainer an obvious plus and has a competitive shout.

Chelsea's Strength

Jockey: Santo Sanjur Trainer: Jose Cazares Age/Wt: 6/8-10 F: 15854/

Comment: Not beaten that far in fourth (6l) in 2023 in a claimer; a winner on three occasions from 5f to 1m; has a long absence to overcome; record when fresh isn't great so others have more pressing claims.

Jockey: Emmanuel Esquivel Trainer: Genaro Garcia Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 31-3

Miss Makenna

Jockey: Carlos Barbosa Trainer: Peter Miller Age/Wt: 3/8-8 F: 35-645

Comment: Not disgraced when fifth of 11 (muddy track) at Oaklawn Park last month in a maiden claimer; class dropper as runs for a $5k tag here; strong contender as her rider is capable of making the most of a favourable draw and she has shown bits and pieces of promise.

Free Passage

Jockey: Marcelino Jr Pedroza Trainer: Climaco Torres Age/Wt: 3/8-8 F: 8-3642

Comment: Has taken a step forward the last twice; good effort when close up 11 days ago in a maiden claimer; in for a $5k tag so down in class ($12.5k last time); should not be far away as latest run was an encouraging one.

Comment: Still searching for first win after four tries; last of nine in a maiden claimer on her debut for new trainer at Turfway Park two months ago; significantly reduced claiming tag a concern so one to tread carefully with.

Verdict: MISCHIEF LILY gets the vote. She might find the race opens up for her with the likelihood of plenty of competition for the lead and is hard to ignore if forgiven a modest most recent effort, while Crowned With Grace and Red Rose Rockin should also be in the hunt.

My Tulip Gal

Jockey: James Graham Trainer: Andrew Mckeever Age/Wt: 3/8-8 F: 5

Comment: Seemed to find life tough on her debut three weeks ago at Keeneland; in for a $12.5k tag so down in class ($40k last time); will need to step up from her racecourse introduction.

Comment: Tailed off at Turfway Park over 6½f (maiden claimer) in March, behind Cedrato; sire does get winners on the turf; drops to a $12.5k tag; others appeal more.

Comment: Comfortably beaten into seventh on her debut over 1m½f at Turfway Park at 20-1 two months ago; Goldencents gets turf winners; drops to a $12.5k tag from $15k; must now step up as has not shown much during her workouts.

Comment: Beaten 16l on her debut into second at Turfway Park two months ago; closely matched with Joy Girl on that result; Connect gets turf winners; rates a likely contender as lower claiming tag should make this easier.

Comment: Finished last of four in a maiden claimer two weeks ago upped to 1m½f; The Factor gets winners on the turf; calmer waters here (in for $12.5k, $32k tag last time); can be on the premises as seemingly there is more to come from this nicely bred daughter of The Factor.

Comment: Unable to land a blow when fourth of eight at Turfway Park in January in a maiden claimer; has arguably shown improved form the last twice; likely to go well as shown she can be competitive fairly recently and sights are lowered reflected by lower claiming tag.

Runaway Storm

Jockey: Alex Achard Trainer: Ethan West Age/Wt: 5/8-10 F: 1/2-

Comment: Close up second over 1m½f here (stakes, yielding) in July; has made a pleasing start to his career with three wins from six starts and a winner of a Grade 3 in 2023; returns from an absence here; dropped in grade to claiming level so should have every chance.

Comment: Not won for some time now and form has an up and down look to it; beaten 6l (eighth) over 1m1f at Churchill Downs (allowance optional claimer) a week ago; a few rivals look in good form so may be vulnerable.

Comment: Successful three times from 13 career runs and admirably consistent; not beaten far when third in an allowance optional claimer at Turfway Park two months ago; should go close if confirming promise shown last time.

Bold Discovery

Jockey: James Graham Trainer: Andrew Mckeever Age/Wt: 5/8-10 F: 0600-

Comment: Last of ten in an allowance race at Keeneland in October on debut for this trainer; has earned plenty of prize money in Britain and Ireland, on target three from 13 starts; claiming debut; returns from a layoff here; this looks a fair heat so not one to rely on.

Jockey: Ben Curtis Trainer: Brendan Walsh Age/Wt: 6/8-10 F: 3-715

Comment: Failed to land a blow when fifth of 11 over 1m4f at Keeneland (allowance race, had King Curlin and Agent Creed behind) four weeks ago; has achieved three wins from 14 career runs; chance if excused most recent run as achieved claimer success two runs back and he should benefit from return to this trip.

Jockey: Vincent Cheminaud Trainer: Jonathan Thomas Age/Wt: 7/8-10 F: 311/7-

Comment: Career record shows his ability to win (wins-runs record of 10-26) and won a stakes in 2023; ran below market expectations (favourite) when seventh over 1m1f at Turfway Park (Grade 3) last March; this is a step down in class; returns from a lengthy absence.

Verdict: ANN'S GIRL is top of the list. She looks a game sort and produced an encouraging debut effort. Emoji, Adalene and Tarshea should also be on the premises.

Mizz Candy

Jockey: Adam Beschizza Trainer: Genaro Garcia Age/Wt: 3/8-8

Comment: Related to 6f winner Sight To Behold; stable can ready one first time out; sire gets turf winners; remains to be seen whether she'll be clued up enough to get off the mark - a look at the betting is advised.

Adalene

Jockey: Marcelino Jr Pedroza Trainer: Marcelino Salas Age/Wt: 4/8-12 F: 90-567

Comment: Been out of sorts of late and still searching for her first win after 16 attempts; beaten 14l when seventh of 11 in a maiden special weight (Turfway Park) in March; looks likely to be involved as a number of her rivals have questions to answer.
