Poetica (5) was in a different class last time with a dominant 2.25 lengths win over 6½f at santa anita (dirt), making it two wins in a row.Can continue the winning run. grade 3 placegetter late frost (1) is going well with three minor placings from three starts this prep.Continued the trend last time out when runner-up over 6f at delaware park (dirt) after she was in the firing line all the way.It doesn't get any easier but on her best form she is one of the chief contenders. grade 2 placegetter jersey pearl (4) is a promising type who finished in the placings over 6f in the g2 prioress stakes at saratoga (dirt) at her last appearance on september 2.Goes well when fresh including a win and one minor placings.Has a great record at this journey with three wins from six starts and has to be included. grade 3 placegetter condensation (6) kicked off this campaign with a win then couldn't follow that up last time out when fifth over 5½f at keeneland, beaten 5 lengths.Nicely placed to play a leading role.
