RYE SMILE (3) ran a better race last start to finish a close third over 5½f at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. DORIS' SLAYING IT (10) broke through for her maiden win over 4f at Timonium (Dirt) last time, scoring comfortably. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Jumps from a wide draw but she cannot be underestimated. ASKNOTWHATYOUCANDO (8) finished third last start at the first run back from a lay-off over 5½f at Colonial Downs (Turf), beaten 2.25 lengths. In the right race and is one of the big hopes. HOT DANCE (9) improved sharply last time out to score by 2.75 lengths over 6f at this track (Dirt) two months ago. Likely to be there at the finish again.
