TIFFANY GOLD (4) is a talented galloper who is unbeaten from two runs, the latest success coming over 5f at Gulfstream Park (Turf). Comfortable winner last time and can measure up again. LACONIA (9) built on a nice third two starts back at this track (Dirt) with a win over 6f at Aqueduct (Turf) three-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by 0.3 lengths. Taking on a better line-up this time but she is good enough to play a major role. PACIFIC ROSE (1) resumed over 6f at this track (Dirt) last start and was too good for her rivals, scoring by 1.3 lengths. Open to plenty of improvement and another big run will not surprise. SHUANGXI (8) lifted strongly to score by 0.3 lengths two runs back at this track (Turf) then ran seventh over 5½f in stakes class at Laurel (Turf) last time in tougher grade. Will be handy despite the tricky draw. Not to be discounted.
