NANDA DEA (5) scored a dominant win at Keeneland (Turf) over 1m1/2f at her latest appearance on 17/10/2024, the only time she faced the starter in that campaign. Comes here with definite claims. SCHOOL DANCE (1) is putting together some solid results. Finished second at Churchill Downs (Turf) two starts back then landed the prize by a nose as public elect last time out over 1m at Turfway Park (Synthetic). Must raise the bar but a big run is on the cards. LOVELY PRINCESS (4) returns from a lay-off of ten months. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when sixth over 1m4f in the G3 Bewitch Stakes at Keeneland (Turf). Brian Joseph Hernandez Jr who has three wins when partnering stays on. Has claims on her best figures. STIR CRAZY (14) is lining up for a winning hat-trick after scoring on turf over 1m1/2f at this track in a then following up with a win on dirt over 1m1/2f at this track more recently. Good record at this journey with three wins and three minor placings from seven starts and must be respected.
