WAR LIKE GODDESS (4) found one better last start in the G1 Joe Hirsch Turf Classic at Aqueduct (Turf) over 1m4f after she was prominent at the corner. Is yet to miss the frame from seven starts at this distance, including four wins. Junior Alvarado who has scored on her two times retains the mount. Expecting a bold showing. FULL COUNT FELICIA (2) was an effortless winner last time over 1m2f in the G1 E. P. Taylor Stakes at Woodbine, scoring by 3.5 lengths. Has been in great form with two victories from three outings this campaign. Should be hard to stop. CINDERELLA'S DREAM (3) is back from a lay-off of three months and brings solid fresh form to the table. Strung together two wins before the break, the latest over 1m1 1/2f at Saratoga. William Buick has been the pilot at her last two wins. Has claims on her best figures. DIDIA (5) ran well below her best last time over 1m1f in the G2 John C. Mabee Stakes at this track (Turf), beaten 2 lengths into fourth at 8/11. Strong record with Jose Ortiz aboard, including two wins. Not to be discounted.
