I C GOLD (3) is back from a spell after closing last campaign with a couple of wins, the latest over 1106m at this track on September 20. Among the leading chances. BL FORTY (4) finished out of the money two starts back then she settled well back and was beaten 19 lengths when seventh over 1710m at Oaklawn Park a month ago. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. PRIVATE SPEAKER (2) is back from a spell of three-and-a-half months. Closed last prep as a winner, taking out a 1207m contest at Oaklawn Park by 2.25 lengths. Deserves serious consideration. ANNALINE (6) has not appeared since she scored over 1207m at this track on August 31. This sets up nicely.
