Verdict: PEOPLE ARE PEOPLE has been holding his form well and ran with credit last time. Indy One and Come On Big Lou can't be ruled out either.

Bob And Jules

Jockey: Brooke Bays Trainer: Carrie Russiani Age/Wt: 4/8-7 F: 3-

Comment: Good debut effort last May when third by three-quarters of a length over 6½f here; might be better for the experience although not hard to turn elsewhere.

Jockey: Amanda Vandermeersch Trainer: Robert Tiller Age/Wt: 4/8-12 F: 77332-

Comment: Admirably consistent and has raised his game the last twice; not beaten far when runner-up over 6f here (maiden optional claimer) four months ago; a leading player if replicating most recent run and his most recent trackwork was pleasing.

Whiskey N Ice

Jockey: Leo Salles Trainer: Danny Yu Age/Wt: 4/8-12 F: 83498-

Comment: Got across to lead from a wide draw in November when favourite and finishing last of eight in a maiden claimer; she has a shout as this doesn't look like the strongest maiden claimer and has been on the scene in the recent past.

Sloans Sky

Jockey: Eswan Flores Trainer: Barrington Siddo Age/Wt: 5/8-11 F: 26244-

Comment: Attempts to score at the 16th time of asking; fair effort when beaten just over 3l, finishing fourth of nine over 7f here (maiden claimer) in December; should go close as this doesn't look like the strongest maiden claimer and she has shown signs of promise recently.

Featherweight

Jockey: Austin Adams Trainer: Santino Dipaola Age/Wt: 4/8-6 F: 2857-

Comment: Winless after 14 races; ridden positively to get across to lead from stall seven when a disappointing seventh in November in a maiden claimer; capable of making an impact as jockey does well from inside draws here and has shown some ability on occasion.

Dark Danger

Jockey: Rafael Hernandez Trainer: Sid Attard Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 00-0

Comment: First-time blinkers had no impact in a maiden special weight (dropped back to 6½f) at Turfway Park when last of 11 in February; related to Stakes winner Ancient Spirit but still searching for first win after three tries; first attempt at a claimer; this is a step down in class but one to tread carefully with.

Comment: Not beaten that far in sixth (just under 5l) in November in a maiden optional claimer; can have a big say as has bits and pieces of decent form and he could be more streetwise here.

Nata Trouble

Comment: Fifth five months ago, only beaten half a length, upped to 1m½f in a stakes; proved competitive when hitting the board in a stakes in August and produced a string of consistent efforts; likely to go well as is no stranger to the winners' enclosure and down in class to claiming company.
