DERRY GIRL (4) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second over 1m1/2f at Churchill Downs. Perfectly placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. BEE A QUEEN (6) will find this easier than the last appearance when she returned from a break in stakes company and finished fifth over 1m1/2f at Listed level at this track (Dirt). Should camp just off the leaders. Expected to be in the finish. INDEED (1) resumed from a lay-off last start with a sound third over 1m at this track (Dirt) after being prominent at the bend. Suitably placed to crack the maiden win. SMOKIN HOT WIFE (7) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1m1/2f at Churchill Downs, beaten 7 lengths into seventh. This is a nice drop in grade so she is a major player.
