MONEY WELL SPENT (5) returns from a lay-off of four months. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when fifth over 1m at Louisiana Downs (Turf). Generally goes well here. Will be hard to stop. DREWSILLA (2) resumed over 1m1/4f at this track (Dirt) last start and was too good for her rivals, scoring by 1.3 lengths. Open to plenty of improvement and can go on with it. SHE TOLD YOU SO (1) put together back-to-back wins before going for a lay-off at Louisiana Downs. Has a strong association with Alexander Castillo who has been in the saddle for her last two wins. Certainly one to consider. STRAWBERRY SUNDAE (9) was in contention on the turn and finished second last time over 1m1/4f at this track (Dirt) when resuming from a lay-off, beaten 0.8 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating another strong effort.
