Group 2 placegetter SHIMMERING ALLURE (4) settled towards the back of the field last start and made little impact in the straight when sixth, beaten 7 lengths, over this journey in the G1 Ashland Stakes at Keeneland (Dirt). Ideally placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. MISS HARRIETT (2) had been in sparkling form winning two on end before missing the frame last start over 6f at Listed level at Aqueduct (Dirt). Returns to the course where she won in a. Has a very good record here with three wins from four starts. Right in this. DETERMINED DRIVER (5) is putting together some solid results. Finished second in stakes class at this track (Dirt) two starts back then landed the prize by 12 lengths as favourite last time out over 1m in Listed grade at this track (Dirt). Forest Boyce scored on her last time and retains the ride. Going up a level this time but she is up to the challenge. JEANNE MARIE (3) pushed forward and was a determined winner by 2.5 lengths over 1m1/4f at Listed level at Parx (Dirt) last time out. Do not underestimate.
