HELENE'S POWER (5) raced on the pace last start and lifted strongly to hold second, beaten 8 lengths, over today's journey at this track (Dirt). Steps up a level but she is capable of running another bold race. YES JULIA (7) was last at the races when she finished fourth over 1207m at Oaklawn Park (Dirt) on April 9. One of the genuine hopes in the race. MINNIE'S PEARLS (6) finished third first-up at this track then couldn't repeat the dose last time when fourth at this track (Dirt) over 1207m when beaten 9 lengths. Senior rider aboard this time. Well placed here and among the winning hopes. WHISPERING CHARM (4) is a three-year-old filly who is having her first run for the Oscar Flores yard. Finished off last campaign with a sixth at Churchill Downs (Dirt) four-and-a-half months ago. Not seen at the trials but looks nicely placed. Not to be underestimated.
