LOVE APPEALS (5) finished sixth two runs back at Churchill Downs (Dirt) then improved last time out to score by 1.5 lengths after being in contention on the bend over 5f at this track (Turf). This looks a sterner test than last time but on her best form she is one of the key runners. LADY MIA (3) Placed in a Group 3. Is a handy galloper who was 1.5 lengths from the winner in second when resuming last start over 5f at this track. Fitter and protecting an unbeaten second up record. BOSSERATI (7) has been in the placings at her last two appearances, finishing third over 6f in stakes class at Laurel (Turf) most recently. Sure to be competitive. PACIFIC ROSE (9) won when resuming then found stakes class a lot tougher last time out when fourth over 6f at Listed level at this track (Dirt). Can do much better this time.
