11/10

Comment: Last of eight at Parx in November in an allowance optional claimer; brings winning C&D form to the table; useful in this grade; claiming value now drops to $5k; the trainer has enjoyed plenty of winners of late; more than capable if on song so looks a likely player.

Comment: Has taken a step forward the last twice; solid effort in a maiden claimer (Laurel Park) 34 days ago; deserves respect despite this step up in class and lots of promise in her latest performance.

Comment: Specialist here with three wins from six visits and on a hat-trick; scored by a slim margin in a claimer last month; clear chance as best speed figure over the past year reads well comparatively and lower claiming tag worth taking at face value.

25/1

Comment: Finished last of eight at Parx over 7f (optional claimer) last month; grade looks suitable but not seen the winners' enclosure for a while now (last win in 2022); extra distance today could help.

Sasse's Class

Jockey: Julio Hernandez Trainer: Milan Milosevic Age/Wt: 4/8-4 F: 5114-5

Comment: Held in fifth in May at Presque Isle Downs in a claimer; on target twice in his last four outings; has proven competitive in a race of this nature; eased in class with tag standing at $10k here; can't be ruled out.

Imagine It All

Jockey: Yomar Ortiz Trainer: Samuel Davis Age/Wt: 6/8-8 F: 282/45

Comment: Not the most consistent of horses lately; split a number of these rivals in an optional claimer when fifth of eight last month; may have to settle for supporting role in what appears to be a competitive contest.

Coronova

Jockey: Angel Cruz Trainer: Richard Sillaman Age/Wt: 5/8-8 F: 221-65

Comment: Useful in this grade; finished sixth but wasn't beaten too far (5l) at Tampa Bay Downs over 1m (claimer) in February; returns from a layoff; deserves respect as sights are lowered a bit reflected by lower claiming tag and shown he can win fairly recently.

Jockey: Jaime Rodriguez Trainer: Mark Beecher Age/Wt: 5/8-8 F: 16-835

8/13

Comment: Boasts winning form over C&D; unbeaten at this course after two runs; went down by 2l when second in April at Aqueduct in an optional claimer; calmer waters here (in for $16k, $50k tag last time); the trainer continues to be among winners recently; should be involved.

Comment: Surprise winner (22-1) by just over 3l in a maiden claimer when opening her account at the fourth time of asking last month; eased in class with tag standing at $20k here; despite that Delaware Park success, others more appealing.
