Comment: Specialist here with four wins; tenth of 12 when back to 1m1f at Fair Grounds in March in a Grade 2; facing a testing assignment and there are better alternatives here.

Verdict: CAITLINHERGRTNESS is hard to look beyond. She has winning form in the book and the make-up of this race should suit a horse who likes to stalk the early speed.

Comment: On target twice in her last five outings; won a stakes in August here; a disappointing result (went off favourite) when beaten just over 2l with Fashionably Fab just behind in November in a Grade 3; impressed on most recent trackwork and is a major player.

Comment: Was well on top at the line in March at Turfway Park in a stakes; wins achieved at a lower level but record shows she knows where the winning post is (wins-runs record of 12-45); needs considering; absence is no concern as has previously gone well off a break and this step up in class unlikely to hinder her.
