MARY KATHERINE (4) was in the money two starts back at Mountaineer Park but couldn't back it up last time when sixth, beaten 19 lengths, at this track (Dirt) over 1m1/4f. Tackling a more suitable race this time so she will be hard to beat. JACK'S YACHT QUEEN (5) doesn't win out of turn but ran a strong race last time when beaten 0.8 lengths into second over 1m at this track (Dirt). Should park just off the speed. Best figures should see her run well. MAIDEN ROCK (6) settled well back last start and never threatened when 17 lengths from the winner in sixth over 1m at this track (Dirt). Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. NELL'S BELLS (7) made progress last time out, finishing 2.75 lengths from the winner in third over 1m at Mountaineer Park. Placed to advantage so anticipating another big run.
