QUEEN OF THE MUD (4) has recently been thereabouts since scoring at Keeneland on October 22 the latest effort a second over 6f at Listed level at Laurel (Turf). Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Expecting a bold showing. MOMENT'S PLEASURE (6) was well fancied last start over 1m at this track (Turf) when third, beaten 2.75 lengths. Sound record at this distance with two wins and four minor placings from seven runs and should be in the finish. ROYAL CHARTER (1) finished fifth last start, beaten 2.75 lengths, over 1m1f at Del Mar. Has a strong record at this trip, scoring two times from three starts. Significant class drop this time. Capable of taking this out. MISS LIZZY (8) resumes. Didn't make an impact at her only run last prep on July 21 finishing seventh and beaten 9 lengths over 1m in Listed grade at Del Mar (Turf). Form this track is hard to knock with four wins from 11 starts. Too good to ignore.
