Verdict: ON THE PAYROLL is top of the list. She could be the main beneficiary if the front runners go too fast and can add a fourth course success to her tally.

The Furmanator

Jockey: Franklin Jr Gonzalez Trainer: Richard Vega Age/Wt: 6/8-9 F: 32-

Comment: Admirably consistent; creditable effort to finish runner-up in a claimer (Meadowlands) behind Above The Limit in October; returns from a layoff.

Peggysue I Love U

Jockey: Isaac Castillo Trainer: Tony Wilson Age/Wt: 4/8-9 F: 12213

Comment: Left punters frustrated after going off favourite when third over 6f here (claimer, sloppy track, bobbled at the start) where just ahead of No Fake last month; mostly consistent recently and record shows she knows where the winning post is (wins-runs record of 3-13); higher claiming tag here so class rise to contend with; is of interest.

On The Payroll

Jockey: Paco Lopez Trainer: Anthony Margotta Age/Wt: 5/8-10 F: -571

Comment: Had several of these behind when an easy winner last month in a claimer; a course specialist who has won three times here; should have every chance as jockey's C&D record from low draws is useful.

Queen Wiggy

Jockey: Jeiron Barbosa Trainer: Panagiotis Synnefias Age/Wt: 5/8-9 F: 1365

Comment: Going for a third win this year and has achieved seven wins from 27 career runs; safely held here last month behind On The Payroll when beaten 8l in a claimer; a lot on her plate here and others more likely.

Pageant Princess

Jockey: Fernando Jara Trainer: Kathleen DeMasi Age/Wt: 6/8-9 F: 14-

Comment: Beaten 6l in fourth dropped down to 6f at Presque Isle Downs in September in an allowance race; admirable career strike-rate (four from 14 to date); returns from a break here; should not be far away as would have leading chance if back in the same form she showed when winning two starts ago.

No Fake

Jockey: Axel Concepcion Trainer: Claudio Gonzalez Age/Wt: 4/8-9 F: 314442

Comment: Went close when second in a claimer upped to 1m last week; normally pretty consistent and is a two-time winner this year; up in class (in for $12.5k here, $8k tag last time); return to this trip should be in her favour; could go close.

Miss M M

Jockey: Luis Ocasio Trainer: Susan Crowell Age/Wt: 5/8-9 F: 437447

Comment: Could be at the extent of her ability and largely disappointing since successful in a claimer at Parx four months ago; no impression when seventh of eight back down to this distance, finishing well behind reopposing On The Payroll last month in a claimer; this looks a fair heat so hard enough to fancy.

Above The Limit

Jockey: Axel Concepcion Trainer: Cathal Lynch Age/Wt: 7/8-9 F: 1-67

Comment: Missed the frame (beaten 6l into seventh) in an optional claimer (Gulfstream Park) in January; better than this level in her prime; a C&D winner; returns from an absence here.

Brooklyn Guy

Jockey: Fernando Jara Trainer: Diane Morici Age/Wt: 5/8-10 F: 731

Comment: Has achieved five wins from 22 career runs; got the run of the race here over 1m½f (allowance optional claimer) when springing a surprise to win at 16-1 40 days ago; others appeal more despite that win last time.

Auto Glide

Comment: Beaten three-quarters of a length over 1m½f at Delaware Park (allowance optional claimer) five weeks ago; admirable career strike-rate (six from 21 to date); plenty of appeal as jockey does well from inside draws here.

Wampanoag Chief

Jockey: Paco Lopez Trainer: Philip Aristone Age/Wt: 3/8-7 F: 5877

Comment: Attempting to open his account at the fifth time of asking but related to Stakes winner Flor de Sombra; got across to lead from a wide draw at Gulfstream Park last month when seventh of ten in a maiden claimer; first-time blinkers now tried; claiming tag now upped to $16k; can be in the mix as his jockey has an impressive record from low draws over this C&D.

Comment: Has kicked on in his last couple of races and producing consistent form; fair effort when beaten just under 4l at Parx upped to 7f last month in a maiden claimer; higher claiming tag here so up in class; might have a say as recent display was promising and this looks a good opportunity for him to get off the mark.

Leigh's Last Hero

Comment: Yet to manage better than fourth in his seven races; finished last of ten at Parx (bumped at the start) two months ago in a maiden claimer; $16k claiming tag this time (up from $12.5k); makes limited appeal as has not been seen doing much trackwork recently.

Verdict: It is hard to get away from NOON TIME TIDE. She is a well-bred newcomer that can prove up to the task. Slick Merlin, Clever Charlie and J J Pacheco could also have a say.

Slick Merlin

Jockey: Paco Lopez Trainer: Chuck Spina Age/Wt: 2/8-2

Comment: Recent workouts point to readiness; capable of making an impact as some good aspects to her profile and jockey does well from inner gates here.

Clever Charlie

Jockey: Isaac Castillo Trainer: Dan Ward Age/Wt: 2/8-5

Comment: Plenty of trackwork in the book; shares a dam with See The Truth, a 6f winner; one to take seriously.

Golden Spirit

Jockey: Samy Camacho Trainer: Chuck Spina Age/Wt: 2/8-2 F: 7

Comment: Beaten on her debut here at 14-1 last month; entitled to have come on for that run.

Count My Blessings

Jockey: Madison Olver Trainer: Holly Harris Age/Wt: 2/8-2

Comment: Sire's progeny have a good record in sprints; related to multiple race winner Evil Monkey (6f-1m½f); trainer not renowned for debutant winners and this one is best watched.

J J Pacheco

Jockey: Axel Concepcion Trainer: Jose Sanchez Age/Wt: 2/8-5

Comment: First start for this son of Engage; recent workouts point to readiness; looks a contender.

Noon Time Tide

Jockey: Jorge Vargas Jr Trainer: Eddie Owens Age/Wt: 2/8-2

Comment: Trainer has enjoyed debutant winners at this course; this daughter of Sea Wizard looks the part on breeding; has busy trackwork profile; related to Sea Streak (winner from 6f up to 1m½f); every chance with signs of encouragement in profile and her sire suggests the distance might suit.

La Resolana

Jockey: Sonny Leon Trainer: Jose Sanchez Age/Wt: 2/8-2

Comment: First start for this daughter of Engage; been active in workouts; has to be respected.

Superfractor

Jockey: Melissa Iorio Trainer: Benjamin Perkins Age/Wt: 2/8-5

Comment: Shares a dam with Bella Fast, a 5½f winner; having his first start in public; market may be informative on his prospects.

Tiz Awesome

Jockey: Jeiron Barbosa Trainer: Rory Huston Age/Wt: 2/8-2

Comment: Pedigree suggests she may improve with time; making her racecourse bow; might be one for another day; market may guide.

Gold Stamp

Jockey: Samy Camacho Trainer: Michael Dini Age/Wt: 3/8-7 F: 202227

Comment: Unable to land a blow in seventh (muddy track) two weeks ago at Parx in a maiden special weight; seems to have stepped up on previous form the last twice; in with a shout as jockey's C&D record from low draws is useful and a good second two starts back.

Princess Irene

Jockey: Fernando Jara Trainer: Jorge Delgado Age/Wt: 3/8-7 F: 74-9

Comment: Yet to get off the mark in three attempts (fourth her best finish) but nicely bred (by Omaha Beach); finished out the back in January at Turfway Park in a maiden special weight; has had some time off; has to be taken seriously as she now drops into a maiden claimer for the first time and jockey does well from inner gates here.

Smooth Flyin Mike

Comment: Beaten narrowly over 1m at Parx (allowance optional claimer) on debut for new trainer five weeks ago; proven that he knows how to get his head in front (seeking a fifth win); the yard continues to be among winners recently; clear chance as it's a positive he's dropping back to 6f and lower claiming tag should make this easier.

Race Predictor

EW Places: 1/5 ODDS - 3 PLACES

Verdict: AMITY ROAD is the pick of these. He looks best placed to take advantage if the front-runners go too fast. Wise Up and Talklessworkmore must be on the shortlist.

Amity Road

Jockey: Paco Lopez Trainer: Jamie Ness Age/Wt: 6/8-9 F: 12112

Comment: Wasn't disgraced when runner-up of five over 1m at Delaware Park (allowance race) last month; a course winner; has chalked up three wins from his last five; the trainer has enjoyed plenty of winners of late; in with a big shout.

Virginia City

Jockey: Fernando Jara Trainer: Diane Morici Age/Wt: 4/8-9 F: 35566

Comment: Generally modest form since maiden special weight success at Laurel Park in December; respectable effort six weeks ago (bobbled at the start) in an allowance optional claimer; others have more pressing claims as this is competitive.

Talklessworkmore

Jockey: Axel Concepcion Trainer: Jose Delgado Age/Wt: 7/8-9 F: 6-3931

Comment: One-time useful operator; scored by 2l here over 1m (claimer, sloppy track) three weeks ago; warrants respect despite having more on his plate.

Persisten

Jockey: Christian Maragh Trainer: Juan Avila Age/Wt: 3/7-12 F: 53416

Comment: Held in sixth in an allowance optional claimer when dropped down to 6f last month; improved form the last twice; a C&D winner; makes limited appeal as this could be a hot race.

Wise Up

Jockey: Samy Camacho Trainer: Chad Brown Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 81

Comment: Scored by a slim margin in a maiden special weight when getting off the mark at the second time of asking two months ago; from a respected trainer and related to Stakes winner Nimitz Class; runs in claiming company for the first time; should go close.

Gran Yaco

Jockey: Jorge Vargas Jr Trainer: Juan Avila Age/Wt: 4/8-12 F: 53241

Comment: Came out on top by just over 5l (muddy track) last month at Parx in an optional claimer; possesses winning form at this track; managed two wins in his last six outings; he can make a bold bid.

Styner

Jockey: Isaac Castillo Trainer: Jeffrey Englehart Age/Wt: 7/8-12 F: 122141

Comment: Gained a 5l success at Finger Lakes last month in an allowance optional claimer; managed three wins in his last seven outings; winning form over C&D; is passed over as no longer in his pomp.

The Boondocker

Jockey: Frankie Pennington Trainer: Chad Brown Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 7-1

Comment: Gained narrow success in a maiden special weight when getting off the mark at the second time of asking last month; nicely bred (by Unified) and from powerful stable; first run in claiming company; he can make a bold bid.
