INDEPENDENCEAVENUE (7) turned in a moderate midfield finish when resuming from a lay-off eight weeks ago over 6f in the G3 Soaring Softly Stakes at Aqueduct (Turf). Will find this much easier. Leading contender. Group 2 placegetter QUEEN OLLY (4) has a moderate winning strike-rate but did a good job when returning from a break last time at this track (Turf), finishing second and only 0.3 lengths from the winner at the end of 5½f after being in contention on the bend. Finds a suitable race and can build on that solid recent effort. PEAK EARNINGS (6) scored in a at Tampa Bay Downs (Turf) but was below her best last time when tenth over 1m1/2f at this track (Turf). Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. ANAITA (12) scored last start at Penn National (Turf) to make it two wins from three starts this campaign. Will be handy despite the tricky draw. Must be respected.
