3/1

Comment: Scored by just over 1l at Woodbine upped to 1m2f in November in a Grade 3; better than this level in her pomp and admirable career strike-rate (four from 14 to date); returns from an absence here; competitive shout as she has won after a similar break before and drop into claiming grade should help.

Union Thunder

Jockey: Daniel Centeno Trainer: Antonio Machado Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 3-

12/1

Comment: Held on his debut at Laurel Park at 7-2 last August; sire gets turf winners; back from an absence here; first-time blinkers now tried; can give it a good shot now making a first appearance in a maiden claimer.

25/1

Comment: Respectable debut effort (beaten just over 2l) at Laurel Park at 9-1 14 days ago; the trainer has enjoyed plenty of winners of late; should figure if confirming promise shown first time up.

33/1

Comment: Largely not been running well; could not manage better than sixth in a maiden claimer (Gulfstream Park) last month; claiming value now drops to $16k; hard to make a case.

Comment: No impression when sixth of eight in a maiden claimer at Churchill Downs 46 days ago upped to this trip; higher claiming tag here so class rise to contend with; easy enough to take on.

Jockey: Francisco Martinez Trainer: Marco Salazar Age/Wt: 3/7-13 F: 966678

50/1

Comment: Problems at the start (bumped) over 1m at Laurel Park (maiden claimer) when beaten 8l 13 days ago; needs to improve on balance of recent form; deeper waters here (in for $16k here, $12.5k tag last time); hard to make a case for him with this looking like a hot contest.

Ruiz Junior

Jockey: Jose Lopez Trainer: Angel Rodriguez Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 243629

Comment: Beaten a long way in a maiden claimer at Gulfstream Park two months ago; best form so far in last two starts but yet to get off the mark and losing run stands at 17; claiming value now drops from $17.5k; others appeal more.

Jockey: Luan Machado Trainer: Eduardo Caramori Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 330-5

Grand Liam

Jockey: Ismerio Villalobos Trainer: Gerard Ochoa Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 23-335

Comment: Beaten 6l (fifth) over 1m at Tampa Bay Downs (maiden claimer) in April; proving a little expensive to follow but has shown some recent improvement; in for a $16k tag so down in class ($32k last time).
