Comment: A winner eight times from 45 runs (5½f-1m½f); posted respectable effort when beaten 5l last month in a claimer; now down in class (in for $16k from $20k); not been able to get her head in front lately so looks risky.

11/8

Comment: Creditable effort to finish runner-up in a maiden claimer when dropped back to this distance five weeks ago on debut for this trainer; has been fairly consistent this year and has kicked on in her last couple of races; likely to be involved as this looks a good opportunity for her to get off the mark and her latest run was promising.

Comment: Has found improvement of late; not beaten too far when fourth of six at Oaklawn Park 49 days ago in a maiden special weight; should not be far away.

Tupelo

Jockey: Jaime Torres Trainer: Michael McCarthy Age/Wt: 3/8-6

20/1

Comment: Looks the part on breeding (by Bernardini); her stable gets plenty of debutant winners; sire does get winners on the turf; related to Socialbutterflytam, winning form over 5f-6½f; has to be taken seriously with signs of encouragement in profile.

Typecase

Jockey: Mario Gutierrez Trainer: Brian Lynch Age/Wt: 3/8-6

Comment: Collected gets winners on the turf; trainer capable of preparing a newcomer to win.

Pointsetmatch

Jockey: J R Leparoux Trainer: Thomas Amoss Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: -446

Comment: Best she's managed so far is fourth from three career starts; finished sixth, beaten 10l, at Oaklawn Park over 1m½f (maiden special weight) when leading early from a wide draw 43 days ago; others are preferred.

Comment: Market signals often informative with debutants from this yard; sire gets turf winners; attractively bred daughter of Street Boss; should be in the mix as some good aspects to her profile and the current trainer form is another tick.

Candy Mine

Jockey: Edgar Morales Trainer: George Arnold Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 2-2

Comment: This daughter of Twirling Candy looks the part on breeding; just denied 52 days ago at Keeneland in a maiden special weight; pedigree offers room to progress and should make a bold bid.

Verdict: HAUNTED FLAME knows how to get his head in front and is going for his third course success. First Of His Name and Redemption Time also merit consideration.

Laugh A Lot

Jockey: Luan Machado Trainer: Jr Thomas Drury, Age/Wt: 6/8-12 F: 2-2

Comment: Has not had much racing and has been fairly consistent this year; gave good account to finish second in a claimer at Turfway Park in March; yard is ticking along nicely; running on dirt for the first time.

Comment: Has chalked up two wins from his last five; generally consistent; went down by 1l over 1m1f at Keeneland (starter allowance) 51 days ago on debut for this trainer; he can make a bold bid.

Finkle

Jockey: Irving Moncada Trainer: George Arnold Age/Wt: 3/8-1 F: 2

Comment: Problems at the start (bumped) at Horseshoe Indianapolis at 4-1 last month; this son of Volatile looks the part on breeding; could go close as from low numbers over this C&D his jockey has an impressive record and the penny could well drop today.

Lunar Module

Jockey: J R Leparoux Trainer: Jordan Blair Age/Wt: 5/8-10 F: 2-213

Comment: Respectable effort finishing third (beaten 2l) in a starter allowance last month; all his wins have been at a lower level.

Arrest Me Red

Jockey: Corey Lanerie Trainer: Wesley Ward Age/Wt: 7/8-10 F: 211-14

Comment: On target four times in his last seven outings; a winner of a stakes in March; far from disgraced (beaten 3l) last month in a Grade 2; class drop is a plus; is a big player.

Run Carson

Jockey: Adam Beschizza Trainer: Kelsey Danner Age/Wt: 4/8-10 F: 112-67

Comment: Can be a player at this level and proved competitive when hitting the board in a stakes in December; not beaten too far when seventh here when close behind Arrest Me Red 35 days ago in a Grade 2; likely to be in contention in this lower-class event and he's no stranger to the winners' enclosure.

Jockey: Brian Jr Hernandez Trainer: J Ennis Age/Wt: 4/8-10 F: 2-1142

Comment: A proven winner with a wins-runs record of 4-13; beaten 1l at Pimlico last month in a Grade 3; looks likely to be involved with drop in class a positive.

Balsa

Jockey: James Graham Trainer: Aaron Shorter Age/Wt: 5/8-10 F: 116-55

Comment: Record shows he knows where the winning post is (wins-runs record of 5-21) but all his wins have been at a lower level; not disgraced when fifth (Sam Houston, sloppy track) in March in an allowance optional claimer; others more persuasive as this is a tougher test.

All Jokes Aside

Jockey: Sophie Doyle Trainer: Anna Meah Age/Wt: 5/8-10 F: 1317

Comment: Admirable career strike-rate (seven from 28 to date) but all his victories have been gained at a lower level; beaten 7l in seventh over 5½f at Keeneland (allowance race) two months ago; easy to oppose as facing tougher company.

Charcoal

Jockey: Rafael Bejarano Trainer: Tracey Wisner Age/Wt: 9/8-10 F: 1520-

Comment: Almost victorious in a Grade 2 in October; safely held here in November behind Run Carson when last of 11 in an allowance race; has had some time off; faces a tougher assignment this time so there are better alternatives here.

Verdict: GLOBAL QUOTE can prove superior to his rivals. He holds claims with a modest latest run excused and could benefit if the front runners set off too quick, while Mo Moe Mow, Where y'At and Daiquiri Sommelier should also be in the mix.

Caesarea

Jockey: Walter Rodriguez Trainer: Eric Reed Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 433

Comment: Was thereabouts (third of eight, 18-1) 45 days ago at Horseshoe Indianapolis in a maiden special weight; now making a first appearance in a maiden claimer and ought to be of interest.

Bravitas

Jockey: Daniel Sheehy Trainer: Andrew Mckeever Age/Wt: 3/8-6

Comment: From the same family as Vantarsi, a winner over 6½f; requires market confidence to make him of interest as he has been asked a stiff question.

Colonel Caliente

Jockey: Irving Moncada Trainer: Gregory Foley Age/Wt: 3/8-1 F: 98-52

Comment: Had two of these rivals behind him over 1m here (maiden claimer) when on the premises, finishing second 22 days ago; in for a $50k tag here, up from $40k last time; likely to be in contention.
