TOUPIE (4) resumed over 6½f in stakes class at Santa Anita (Turf) last time out and showed good speed to lead throughout, scoring by 1.5 lengths. Nice class drop this time. Sure to run well. GOLDEN HOSTESS (6) turned in a strong run last time at the first run of the prep when she settled well back before running on hard to be beaten only 0.4 lengths into third over 5½f at Keeneland (Turf). Will drift back but is expected to be in the finish again. LOON CRY (5) ran well below her best last time over 6f at Listed level at this track (Turf), beaten 2.25 lengths into fifth at 7/2. Has good early toe so she should be handy in the run. Capable of testing this field. LOVE APPEALS (10) is ready to win after she just missed last time, beaten a nose into second over 6f in Listed grade at this track (Turf). Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake.
