Verdict: BEACH OF DREAMS gets the vote. She represents a trainer that does well with beginners. Practically Famous and Cinnamon Sugar can't be ruled out either.

Practically Famous

Jockey: Nik Juarez Trainer: Brian Lynch Age/Wt: 2/8-7 F: 6

Comment: Not beaten far on her debut at Churchill Downs over 4½f at 13-2 36 days ago; the stable has enjoyed plenty of winners of late; no surprise to see her go well as she drops into a maiden claimer for the first time and her first effort was very pleasing.

Heaven's Hope

Jockey: Edgar Morales Trainer: J Ennis Age/Wt: 2/8-7

Comment: Trainer gets plenty of debutant winners; making her racecourse bow; market confidence needed to make her of interest.

Fizzy Girl

Jockey: Adam Beschizza Trainer: Jena Antonucci Age/Wt: 2/8-7

Comment: May need the run being from this trainer; related to multiple race winner Grand Wiser (5½f-1m½f); sire has a good record with runners over this distance; this one is best watched, unless market signals suggest otherwise.

Springline

Jockey: Reylu Gutierrez Trainer: John Ortiz Age/Wt: 2/8-7

Comment: Related to 1m winner Beckett's Map; has a nice pedigree (by War Of Will); from a stable with a solid record with newcomers; interesting to see how she figures in the betting.

Cinnamon Sugar

Jockey: Cristian Torres Trainer: John Hancock Age/Wt: 2/8-7 F: 5522

Comment: Found one too strong when beaten half a length (Churchill Downs) 24 days ago in a maiden claimer; not ruled out.

Rewire

Jockey: Jaime Torres Trainer: Aaron Shorter Age/Wt: 6/8-10 F: 323

Comment: Solid third in an allowance optional claimer at Fanduel Sportsbook And Horse Racing three weeks ago; produced a string of consistent efforts but has a record of 1-23; claiming value now drops from $20k; tends to find at least one too good; others more likely.

Andy's Candy

Jockey: Rafael Bejarano Trainer: Chris Hartman Age/Wt: 4/8-10 F: 36-56

Comment: Been a while since he managed only win; last of six in a claimer at Churchill Downs six weeks ago; definitely of interest as lower claiming tag suggests he may have less on his plate here and has shown some ability on occasion.

Comment: Has taken a step forward the last twice; problems at the start (stumbled) last month (Churchill Downs) when beaten 19l in a claimer; drops to a $16k tag from $20k; is passed over.

Comment: Not disgraced when fourth (Churchill Downs) last month in a claimer; now down in class (in for $16k from $40k); shown he can get his head in front so should give it a shot.

Midnight Boss

Jockey: Adam Beschizza Trainer: Jena Antonucci Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 85814

Comment: Seems to have stepped up on previous form the last twice; couldn't land a blow when fourth of six (Gulfstream Park) last month in an allowance optional claimer; eased in class with tag standing at $16k here; passed over as this claiming level has been beyond him recently.

Comment: Beaten 6l when fourth of nine (Turfway Park) four months ago in a claimer; he meets the required standard ability wise; claiming value now drops from $30k; returns from a layoff here; likely to be involved as has more than one win to his name.

Comment: Doesn't win often; seventh of eight beaten 15l over 6f at Oaklawn Park (claimer) in April on debut for this trainer; deserves respect as latest speed figure offers hope he can mix it with these despite the rise in tag price and jockey does well from inner gates here.

Fear And Loathing

Jockey: Corey Lanerie Trainer: Tracey Wisner Age/Wt: 4/8-11 F: 7786

Comment: Will need to improve upon some moderate recent runs and not really built on success in a claimer in December at Turfway Park; fair effort when beaten just under 5l, finishing sixth of seven over 5f at Horseshoe Indianapolis (optional claimer) 18 days ago; up in class (in for $16k); others appeal more.

Longshadow

Jockey: Gabriel Saez Trainer: Dana Hancock Age/Wt: 6/8-11 F: 26633

Comment: Not won for some time now and perhaps looks to have to reached his ceiling; fair form when just under 5l third at Horseshoe Indianapolis five weeks ago in a claimer; claiming tag rises from $12.5k last time.

Commanded

Jockey: Brian Jr Hernandez Trainer: W Calhoun Age/Wt: 3/8-8 F: 1-431

Comment: On target twice in her last four outings; narrow scorer in a claimer at Churchill Downs last month; the trainer is going well; lower claiming tag worth taking at face value so has a great chance.

My Bossy Lady

Jockey: Edgar Morales Trainer: Genaro Garcia Age/Wt: 3/8-8 F: 15411

Comment: Bids for hat-trick; narrow scorer in a claimer at Churchill Downs (dropped to this trip) last month; must be high on list as boasts the best speed figure posted by this field in the last 12 months and class rise seems surmountable given the form she's in.

My Secret Dreams

Jockey: Sophie Doyle Trainer: J Ennis Age/Wt: 2/8-7

Comment: Summer Front gets winners on the turf; trainer has a good record with newcomers; the sire's progeny are not always overly precocious; this one is best watched, unless market signals suggest otherwise.

Love A Little Mo

Jockey: Mario Gutierrez Trainer: Brian Lynch Age/Wt: 2/8-7

Comment: Her stable gets plenty of debutant winners; breeding suggests she may get better with age; sire can inject some quality.

Carolyncaroline

Jockey: J R Leparoux Trainer: Lindsay Schultz Age/Wt: 2/8-7

Comment: Recent workouts point to readiness; stable has had a newcomer go in recently; must enter calculations.

Cup Of Coffee

Jockey: Declan Cannon Trainer: Jimmy Corrigan Age/Wt: 2/8-7

Comment: Gormley gets winners on the turf; having her first start in public; a watching brief the best policy.

Mescool

Jockey: Jane Elliott Trainer: Marcelino Torres Age/Wt: 2/8-7 F: 96694

Comment: Was fourth of six, beaten 10l, last month at Belterra Park in a maiden special weight; unlikely to pose a threat.

Spin A Tune

Jockey: Rafael Bejarano Trainer: Eoin Harty Age/Wt: 2/8-7

Comment: Has a nice pedigree (by Hard Spun); sire gets turf winners; newcomers from this yard regularly hit the target; has shown pace in trackwork and one to be interested in.

Last Curtain Call

Jockey: Walter Rodriguez Trainer: Victoria Oliver Age/Wt: 2/8-7

Comment: Sire does get winners on the turf; related to multiple race winner Lord Of Battle (6f-1m½f); this daughter of Oscar Performance looks the part on breeding; may need the run being from this stable; this one is best watched, unless market signals suggest otherwise.

Givemethebeat

Jockey: Edgar Morales Trainer: John Hancock Age/Wt: 2/8-7 F: 553

Comment: Creditable third over 5f at Churchill Downs (maiden claimer) three weeks ago; Edgar Morales booked; this represents a step up in class but must be considered.

Comment: Trainer well capable of preparing youngsters to win races on limited experience; Munnings gets winners on the turf.

Queen Juno

Jockey: Cristian Torres Trainer: Mark Casse Age/Wt: 2/8-7

Comment: Nicely bred (by Yaupon); from powerful trainer; from the same family as Whichwaze, a winner over 6f; should be on the premises as looks to be doing the right things in her workouts and yard is in good order.

Comment: Finished sixth, beaten a fair way over 1m½f at Churchill Downs (claimer) 44 days ago; slumped a bit since winning a maiden at Kempton last August; steps up in grade so not easy to fancy.

Comment: Yet to finish better than fourth in her six races; not disgraced in sixth in a maiden claimer (sloppy track) at Churchill Downs 43 days ago; calmer waters here (in for $16k, $30k tag last time); takes a step into the unknown as she moves up in distance.

Tiz Salty

Jockey: Cristian Torres Trainer: Michael Thompson Age/Wt: 4/8-12 F: 7-52225

Comment: Has found improvement of late but yet to open her account after 12 starts; didn't run too badly when out of the frame at Churchill Downs (beaten 6l) in a maiden claimer four weeks ago; claiming value now rises to $16k; this line-up contains some strong opposition so looks an unlikely winner.

Bullet Baby

Berryville

Jockey: Brian Jr Hernandez Trainer: John Ortiz Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 6

Comment: Beaten 21l when sixth on her debut in Churchill Downs maiden claimer over 6f at 17-2 last month; has a nice pedigree (by Mucho Macho Man) and related to Stakes winner The Mary Rose; could go well as sights are lowered a bit reflected by lower claiming tag and has a pedigree which suggests there is more to come.

Jockey: Walter Rodriguez Trainer: Troy Newton Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 2576

Comment: Comfortably beaten finishing sixth dropped down to 6f at Churchill Downs in May in a maiden claimer; four-race maiden but has managed to finish second; claiming tag now upped to $16k; concern she might not be fully tuned up so others more persuasive.
