MISS WATERMELON (5) resumed from a spell last start when unplaced over 1408m at Saratoga on dirt. Tackles synthetic for the first time today. Worth noting she was in the money when second-up last prep. Big chance to take this out. EXPLOSIVE RUN (2) produced a nice effort on debut in better company last start over 1207m at this track (Synthetic) when second, beaten 1.75 lengths. Sure to take a lot from that hitout so she should be in the finish again. QUEEN'S QUILL (3) produced a nice effort on debut in better company last start over 1207m at this track (Synthetic) when third, beaten 3 lengths. Promising type with improvement to come so she is among the leading chances. CHALANT (6) has been racing consistently including a last start second over 1207m at this track, beaten 3 lengths. Likely to be about the mark again.
