ROSARY (1) made her debut last start and was just fair in finishing sixth at Churchill Downs (Dirt) over 5½f, beaten 6 lengths. Plenty of scope for improvement and worth following up. PEPPER GIRL (8) sat just off the speed and fought on well to finish second when resuming last start at this course and distance. Will drift back but wind up late. Best form puts her right in this. BELLE OF THE SOUTH (11) wasn't far off maiden success before a break of four months, finishing the campaign with a minor placing over 5f at Delaware Park (Turf). Rates highly and is a chance to break through. M'LADY SANSA (9) did a fair job on debut last time out, finishing 2 lengths from the winner in third over 6f at this track (Synthetic). Has upside and must be respected.
