MO LANTERN (6) is back after a break of four-and-a-half months. Went close to a maiden win before the layoff, finishing second at her latest appearance over 1m1f at Turfway Park (Synthetic). Can make a winning return. RILEY JEAN (7) ran another good race last time when second over 5½f at Fairgrounds (Dirt), beaten 3 lengths. Among the better chances. VICKI ROSE (8) is yet to break through after seven starts but not far off a win. Placed in a then missed the frame but was thereabouts last time over 6f at Oaklawn Park (Dirt). Will drift back but wind up late. Solid top-three chance. BOUGIE NOT BASIC (1) is a first-starter by Oscar Performance from Wild Silk who has in turn produced the winner of a black type. Jumps from a favourable gate and should be in the finish.
