ALYESKA (7) is a progressive four-year-old filly who resumes from a break of ten months, her last appearance being a win over 1408m at Aqueduct (Dirt). Has never missed the frame when fresh from a spell in two starts. Has good early toe so she should be handy in the run. Among the leading chances. STRONG STATE (4) finished fourth, beaten 3 lengths, when first up from a spell last time out over 1207m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Has a strong record this course, scoring at two of three starts. Leading contender. SHE'S A GAMER (1) scored at her most recent appearance, getting home by 7 lengths over 1207m at Monmouth Park (Dirt) as favourite. That continued the solid form this campaign, with three wins and three minor placings from six runs. Solid top-three chance. LIMES DON'T LIE (3) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid second at this track (Dirt) over 1408m. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time.
