Verdict: LAURELIN looks best placed to take advantage if the front-runners go too fast and is yet to taste defeat. Virgin Colada and Opulent Restraint also warrant respect.

Jockey: Jose Lezcano Trainer: Melanie Giddings Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 1-7

Comment: Beaten 7l in seventh over 5f at Gulfstream Park (allowance optional claimer) two weeks ago; makes limited appeal as has more on her plate in this.

Icona Mama

Jockey: Ruben Silvera Trainer: Flint Stites Age/Wt: 3/8-8 F: 351-34

Comment: Among the places in a stakes two months ago and produced a string of consistent efforts; respectable effort (beaten 3l) in a stakes at Colonial Downs 43 days ago upped to 1m½f; she can be taken on as this could be a hot race.

Laurelin

Jockey: Kendrick Carmouche Trainer: H Motion Age/Wt: 3/8-10 F: 11-

Comment: Gained narrow success in a stakes in November; out to complete a hat-trick and related to Listed winner Maud Gonne Spirit; returns from a layoff here; has strong claims.

Opulent Restraint

Jockey: Irad Ortiz Jr Trainer: Chad Brown Age/Wt: 3/8-10 F: 411-4

Comment: Beaten fourth of 11 at Tampa Bay Downs over 1m½f (Grade 3) last month; a winner of a stakes in October and winner of two of her four runs to date; she shouldn't be far away now down in grade.

Candy Quest

Jockey: Dylan Davis Trainer: Mark Casse Age/Wt: 3/8-8 F: 1-412

Comment: Related to Grade 3 winner Frosted Over and has won two of her four career runs; ran well when beaten half a length in a stakes finished just ahead of Love Cervere (bumped at the start) at Gulfstream Park four weeks ago; should not be ruled out.

Virgin Colada

Jockey: Flavien Prat Trainer: Chad Brown Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 1220-

Comment: Finished towards the rear in the Grade 1 Breeders' Cup Juv Fillies Turf (Del Mar) in October; hit the bar in a Grade 2 in October and looks the part on breeding (by More Than Ready); returns from a break today; capable of making an impact with drop in class a positive.
