PINOTSLILGIRL (7) improved sharply on her eighth two starts back in stakes class at Turfway Park (Synthetic) with success as public elect over 5½f at this track (Turf) five-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by 1.3 lengths after being in contention on the turn. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. GIFT OF GAB (8) did well when resuming over 5f at Pimlico (Turf) last start, finishing second and beaten 2.25 lengths. Among the winning hopes. BULLOCK (9) continues to race well without winning. Good effort last time when a close second on dirt over 5½f at this track, beaten 0.1 lengths. This is her first run on turf. Recent form solid sure to be thereabouts. PRINCESSOFTHENORTH (1) returned from a lay-off four weeks ago when she was prominent at the bend before being beaten 7 lengths into fourth over 1m1/2f at Pimlico. Fitter so can figure in the finish.
