Verdict: VOGELSANG gets the vote. She could capitalise if the leaders go too fast and has wins in her formline. Dee Dee B and Redwhiteandtacos should also be taken seriously.

Kozem

Jockey: Maikol Vilchez Trainer: Melinda Sanders Age/Wt: 4/8-3 F: 22618-

Comment: Finished last of eight in an allowance optional claimer five months ago; has scored over C&D; useful in this grade; returns from a layoff.

Redwhiteandtacos

Jockey: Erik Barbaran Trainer: Jay Bernardini Age/Wt: 6/8-8 F: 144

Comment: A multiple C&D winner; solid run when fourth over 6f at Mahoning Valley (starter allowance, muddy track) 16 days ago; the stable has enjoyed plenty of winners of late; ought to give it a shot as her peak speed figure over the past year puts her clear.

Vogelsang

Jockey: Bailey Weatherly Trainer: Eric Reed Age/Wt: 5/8-8 F: 4-39

Comment: Beaten 10l in ninth at Tampa Bay Downs over 1m½f (claimer) in February; she meets the required standard ability wise; brings winning form to the table and big run on the cards.

Dee Dee B

Jockey: Brandon Tapara Trainer: Eric Reed Age/Wt: 5/8-8 F: 8321-1

Comment: Winning form over C&D; going for a hat-trick; got the job done by 4½l in a claimer at Mahoning Valley last month.

Devra Warrior

Jockey: Luis Negron Trainer: Javier Suarez Age/Wt: 5/8-8 F: 53522

Comment: Hard to crab her most recent performance (second of five) when dropped to 6f at Mahoning Valley (muddy track) 20 days ago in a claimer; has won four races (5f-7f) but possible that there's no more in the locker; easy enough to take on as not in the habit of winning recently.

Memento Mi

Jockey: Jadiel Zambrana Trainer: Juan Vazquez Age/Wt: 6/8-8 F: 28P-66

Comment: Comfortably beaten into sixth in a claimer at Parx two months ago; has not been firing consistently and may have reached limits of her ability; claiming tag now upped to $12.5k; probably unlikely to trouble the principals.
