BANTERRA (5) has returned in good shape this campaign. Opened with a second at Remington Park (Dirt) two starts back then landed the prize by 0.8 lengths as favourite last time out over 6f at this track (Dirt). Erik Asmussen scored on her last time and retains the mount. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. LOVELYREDSTILETTOS (4) displayed plenty of early toe over 5f at this track (Dirt) last time and dug deep to score by 4.5 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. ACCELERATE JUDY (3) started at 15/2 last time and ran below expectations, finishing eighth and beaten 14 lengths at this track (Dirt) over 6f. Likely improver with strong prospects. OUR PASTOR (1) showed good early dash and raced on the speed at the first run back from a break last start before fading to finish 6 lengths back in fourth over 6f at this track (Dirt). Solid top-three prospects.
