Verdict: NEXT AGENDA gets the vote. She is pretty solid on the strength of her latest effort and could benefit if the front runners set off too quick.

Next Agenda

Jockey: Brandon Whitacre Trainer: Kevin Joy Age/Wt: 3/8-4 F: 55334

Comment: Finished just behind Unalakleet when fourth 16 days ago dropped back in distance in a maiden special weight; Kevin Joy's runners are going great guns at the moment; a major contender as jockey does well from inside draws here and her latest effort was promising.

Jockey: Kevin Gonzalez Trainer: Kevin Monday Age/Wt: 5/8-11 F: 0-52

Comment: Finishing second was a good effort in a maiden claimer at Belterra Park two weeks ago; shown recent signs of improvement but still winless and defeats stacking up (22 on the bounce); unlikely to achieve more than just a supporting role given likely tougher test.

Buxtehude

Jockey: Alejandro Gomez Trainer: Jennifer Johnson Age/Wt: 3/8-4 F: 5-864

Comment: Not far behind Christina Of Milan when fourth in a maiden claimer three weeks ago; this represents a step up in class so others have more pressing claims.

Unalakleet

Jockey: Bailey Weatherly Trainer: Claudie Godsey Age/Wt: 3/8-4 F: 2383

Comment: Four-race maiden though does have a second place to her name; not beaten far two weeks ago in a maiden special weight; looks likely to go well.

Christina Of Milan

Jockey: Maikol Vilchez Trainer: Melinda Sanders Age/Wt: 3/8-4 F: 856672

Comment: Has kicked on in her last couple of races; sound effort when 14-1 runner-up dropped back in distance with Buxtehude just behind last month in a maiden claimer; unlikely to achieve more than just a supporting role as facing a tougher assignment this time.

Inferno

Jockey: Luis Batista Trainer: Michael Jones Age/Wt: 3/8-4 F: 6-7877

Comment: Finished last of seven in a maiden claimer at Charles Town (bumped at the start) in March; generally been out of sorts of late and still winless and defeats stacking up (nine on the bounce); meeting some horses in good form and hard to recommend.

Jockey: Kyle Gilbert Trainer: Julia Gilbert Age/Wt: 3/8-4 F: 899-7

Kingdom's Spirit

Jockey: Luis Batista Trainer: Josh Bishop Age/Wt: 7/8-11 F: 32-24

Comment: Has displayed improved form on last two starts and has proven competitive in a race of this nature; didn't run too badly when out of the frame here (beaten 9l) in a maiden special weight two weeks ago; easy to see her making an impression as jockey does well from inside draws here.

Shoppingatbloomies

Jockey: Luis Tapara Trainer: Juan Aguirre Age/Wt: 5/8-11 F: 0-4564

Comment: Still without a win after 20 starts; not disgraced when fourth in a maiden special weight (sloppy track) finished just ahead of Raven's Honor nine days ago upped to 1m; can't be ruled out as has been on the scene in the recent past.

In The Breeze

Jockey: Erik Barbaran Trainer: Jay Bernardini Age/Wt: 3/8-4 F: 7744

Comment: Lightly raced (running for just the fifth time); far from disgraced (beaten just under 3l) six weeks ago (muddy track) on her first start for this trainer in a maiden claimer; one to note despite having more on her plate.

A Little Canela

Jockey: Marshall Mendez Trainer: Kevin Joy Age/Wt: 4/8-11 F: 13131

Comment: Proven that she knows how to get her head in front (seeking a fourth win); comfortably landed six-runner claimer (sloppy track) at Charles Town last month; strong claims as from low numbers over this C&D her jockey has an impressive record.

Oopsie Doopsie

Jockey: Bailey Weatherly Trainer: Danny Bird Age/Wt: 5/8-8 F: 141334

Comment: Has been fairly consistent this year and wins-runs record of 7-28; just over 3l fourth to the reopposing Redwhiteandtacos last week in a claimer; a lot on her plate here and passed over.

True Indy

Jockey: Charle Oliveros Trainer: Wade Sanderson Age/Wt: 5/8-8 F: 433123

Comment: Can boast winning form over this C&D; mostly consistent recently; creditable effort behind Take Wings (Charles Town) four weeks ago when third beaten 5l in a claimer; warrants consideration.

Comment: Claimed a second C&D win a week ago when successful by three-quarters of a length; seeking a hat-trick today; has proven capable of posting bigger numbers than these rivals so should give it a bold bid.

Comment: A winner four times from 33 runs (5f-7f); gave it a good shot when a close third in a claimer (dropped to 5½f) on her first start for this trainer 16 days ago; steps up in grade so others appeal more.

Comment: Narrow success in a claimer four weeks ago; season-ticket holder here with six wins; she can make a bold bid as peak figure in the past year is the best in the field and win last time out points to her being able to handle class rise.

Comment: Achieved three wins at this venue; held when sixth beaten 13l behind Rapid Ruby, last month in a claimer; calmer waters here (in for $5k, $6.5k tag last time); unlikely to achieve more than just a supporting role.

Angelus Warrior

Man On The Moon

Jockey: Brandon Tapara Trainer: Robert Inman Age/Wt: 7/8-8 F: 5971

Founder

Jockey: Alejandro Gomez Trainer: Moises Valdez Age/Wt: 7/8-8 F: 77-7

Comment: Last of seven when dropped in distance (Presque Isle Downs) 13 days ago in a claimer; four-time winner in his career (from 6f-1m½f) but recent form hardly the most inspiring; his claims aren't overly compelling as running in what looks to be a hot race.

Cool Quartet

Jockey: Kevin Gonzalez Trainer: Christi Flores Age/Wt: 9/8-8 F: 8-14824

Comment: Out of the frame when fourth at Louisiana Downs 23 days ago in a claimer; 13-time winner in his career (from 6f-1m½f); has hit the frame in several recent runs; unlikely to achieve more than just a supporting role as meeting a number of horses who are in good form.

Cold Plunge

Jockey: Joe Stokes Trainer: John Brown Age/Wt: 4/8-8 F: 1443-8

Comment: Possesses winning form at this track; close up behind Luvtheoneurwith when eighth over 5½f here (claimer) 15 days ago on debut for this trainer; easy to oppose.

Luther Pass

Jockey: Kyle Gilbert Trainer: Jose Silva Age/Wt: 6/8-8 F: 1-2344

Comment: This is his level and normally pretty consistent; not disgraced when fourth in a claimer nine days ago finished just ahead of Hakkimi (sloppy track) upped to 1m; can be on the premises if in the same mood as when achieving most recent success.

Remys Gunsmoke

Jockey: Ricardo Barrios Trainer: Marion Cuttino Age/Wt: 6/8-8 F: 4-3456

Comment: Has proven competitive in a race of this nature; far from disgraced (beaten 4l) in a claimer when separating a number of reopposing rivals last month upped to 5f; knows how to win so looks interesting.

City Humor

Jockey: Brandon Whitacre Trainer: Wilson Langley Age/Wt: 5/8-8 F: 089866

Lieutenant Brown

Jockey: Marshall Mendez Trainer: Anthony Farrior Age/Wt: 7/8-8 F: 82470

Comment: Beaten a long way (sloppy track) last month at Charles Town in an optional claimer; drops to a $4k tag from $10k; stable going well a plus; in with a big shout as shown some ability on occasion.

Twice Shy

Jockey: Kevin Gonzalez Trainer: Shane Spiess Age/Wt: 5/8-8 F: 231513

Wild Time

Jockey: Yan Aviles Trainer: Eddie Clouston Age/Wt: 5/8-8 F: 2-6627

Comment: Consistent performer and useful at this level; behind three of these rivals in a claimer posting a respectable effort three weeks ago; some claims if replicating the best of his form and the longer distance is likely to help.

Hakkimi

Jockey: Luis Tapara Trainer: Alexis Lopez Age/Wt: 5/8-8 F: 77879

Comment: Tailed off here over 1m (claimer) nine days ago (sloppy track, behind Luther Pass) on debut for this trainer; recent form is unremarkable and doesn't win often; unlikely to achieve more than just a supporting role.

Luvtheoneurwith

Jockey: Renzo Diaz Trainer: Timothy Gilbert Age/Wt: 6/8-8 F: 2964-4
