MONTEGO BAY (3) is yet to break through after seven starts. Last time out was fourth, beaten 6 lengths, over 6f at this track (Synthetic). Blinkers added in a positive sign from the stable. CHARDAN (7) returns after five months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a fourth over 5½f at Saratoga (Turf). Good chance to break through. ELHUBOOB (2) was last at the races when she finished seventh over 5f at Horseshoe Indianapolis (Turf) on October 28. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race. VICKI ROSE (6) lines up for the first time since April 18. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 6f at Churchill Downs. Yet to win when resuming but generally runs well with two minor placings from three tries. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race.
