Multiple Group 2 placegetter DAZZLING BLUE (3) finished second behind Clearly Unhinged in the G3 Winning Colors Stakes at this track (Dirt) over this distance at her latest outing. Has a terrific record here with two wins and two placings from four starts. Well placed and should be in the finish. YOUR SO SILLEA (7) finished fourth when resuming two runs back then did a good job last start but found one better over 5½f at this track, beaten only half a length after being prominent at the turn. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. AMERICAN BAND (4) had been in great form winning three on end before missing the frame last time when tenth over 7f in the G1 Derby City Distaff Stakes at this track (Dirt). Yet to miss the frame from eight starts at this journey, including six wins and shapes as a key runner. EFFORTLESSLYELGANT (2) was well fancied when resuming last start and proved too strong, scoring by 2.25 lengths over 6f at Oaklawn Park (Dirt). Will be better for that latest run and must be included.
