Comment: Has maintained her consistent level of form and successful nine times from 44 career runs; not beaten far when third over 1m½f at Oaklawn Park (claimer, muddy track) six weeks ago; claiming tag drops from $10k; the stable has enjoyed plenty of winners of late; holds leading claims.

Justice Department

Comment: Poor strike-rate; fair effort in an allowance race (sloppy track) when ahead of Sound Of Victory 47 days ago; encouragement to be gleaned from latest effort so he's an attractive contender.

Comment: Didn't live up to market expectations at 7-4 when fifth four weeks ago on her first start for this trainer in an optional claimer; one-time useful performer and represents a powerful trainer; looks likely to be involved if finding her best form and jockey does well from inner gates here.

Comment: Record shows she knows where the winning post is (wins-runs record of 3-14) but not really built on success in a claimer in August at Remington Park; fair effort when beaten 3½l, finishing sixth of ten in a claimer last month; claiming tag rises to $15k here; this line-up contains some strong opposition so looks an unlikely winner.

Comment: Displayed a fair level of form when 6l third in a claimer last month; possesses winning form at this track; recent efforts have generally been solid; others appeal more as found this claiming level has been beyond her recently.

Comment: Finished last of eight over 1m at Sam Houston (claimer, dwelt at the start) two months ago; struggled a bit since winning a claimer at Delta Downs six months ago; others more likely as slow starts are becoming a habit.

Comment: Last of eight 28 days ago in a claimer; deeper waters here (in for $7.5k here, $6.3k tag last time); this is competitive and can't be considered.

11/4

Comment: Went down by 7l when third at the first time of asking at Turf Paradise at 4-1 two months ago; nicely bred (by Not This Time) and related to Stakes winner Francatelli; strong claims on best trackwork and this step up in class unlikely to hinder him.

Comment: He can be competitive at this level and best form so far in last two starts; didn't run too badly when out of the frame at Oaklawn Park (beaten 6l) six weeks ago (muddy track) in a maiden claimer; ought to give it a shot as jockey's C&D record from low draws is useful.
