WEDELIA (5) has raced twice. Was fourth on debut then clocked-in 4 lengths from the winner in second last time out over 1710m at Churchill Downs. Has the pace to be prominent from the outset. Further improvement to come and this looks her chance. EMPRESS NEW GROOVE (7) returns after three-and-a-half months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a eighth over 1609m at Keeneland Turf (Turf). Good chance to break through. MARIA LOUISE (3) is a three-year-old filly on debut from the stable of Todd Pletcher. By Gun Runner from Stopchargingmaria. Respect any positive move in betting. NOBLE GLOW (1) stepped out for her debut over 1408m at Churchill Downs (Dirt) back on November 29 and finished sixth, beaten 6 lengths. The addition of Lasix first up is a noteworthy move.
