Verdict: FANNY M has to be the first name on the shortlist. She is a one-time winner at this track and is taken to confirm the placings after she had Red Mood behind latest.

Fanny M

Jockey: Sofia Vives Trainer: Robert Tiller Age/Wt: 3/8-10 F: 25-214

Comment: Could not manage better than fourth finished just ahead of Red Mood three weeks ago in a claimer; seems to be improving based on last two runs; arguably the one to beat if excused most recent run as achieved maiden claimer success two runs back and shown she can get her head in front.

Happy Quad

Jockey: Jalon Samuel Trainer: Darren Glennon Age/Wt: 5/8-12 F: 553-24

Comment: A big disappointment for supporters after finishing fourth with Come On Big Lou just behind three weeks ago in a maiden optional claimer; has arguably shown improved form the last twice and has proven competitive in a race of this nature; has shown some ability on occasion and likely to be a threat.

Bennys Jets

Jockey: Dalila Rivera Trainer: John Mattine Age/Wt: 3/8-1 F: 4-8675

Ashwood

Jockey: Jeffrey Alderson Trainer: Frank Huarte Age/Wt: 3/8-8

Comment: This son of Seattle Serenade is making his debut; this doesn't look easy against experienced rivals so probably best watched.

Jo Jagr

Jockey: Skye Chernetz Trainer: Devon Gittens Age/Wt: 3/8-8 F: 0

Comment: Never posed a significant threat on his debut with blinkers tried (at Woodbine over 6f) at 18-1 two weeks ago; nicely bred (by Jagr); definite chance as he should benefit from that experience and has a pedigree which suggests there is more to come.

Tricky Magician

Jockey: Desean Bynoe Trainer: W Armata Age/Wt: 9/8-9 F: 670-48

Comment: Not far behind two of these rivals two weeks ago when beaten 12l (eighth of nine) in an optional claimer; may not have any more improvement left and hasn't really fired since his success in an optional claimer at Woodbine in August; a once useful performer but not at that level anymore and not an obvious one.

Jockey: Slade Callaghan Trainer: Kelly Callaghan Age/Wt: 8/8-9 F: 007F-

Comment: Fell when unfancied in an optional claimer back down to this trip in October; largely disappointing since successful in a claimer at Woodbine last July but has won three times here; returns from a layoff.

Jockey: Rico Walcott Trainer: Norman McKnight Age/Wt: 9/8-9 F: 0834

Comment: Career record shows his ability to win (wins-runs record of 15-51); fair effort at Oaklawn Park over 5½f (claimer) in April; plenty of appeal if replicating most recent run and his most recent trackwork was pleasing.

Jockey: Da Sean Gaskin Trainer: Tedston Holder Age/Wt: 7/8-11 F: 810-84

Comment: Not beaten that far in fourth (just over 3l) over 7f here (claimer) with Dream On Baby just behind 14 days ago; has been in the winners' enclosure four times in his career; probably unlikely to trouble the principals.

Jockey: Jodeien Anderson Trainer: Daniel Harvey Age/Wt: 6/8-9 F: 248

Comment: Finished last of eight in a claimer two weeks ago; may not have any more improvement left and not won for some time now; he can be taken on as no longer in his pomp.

Comment: Does not win very often; creditable fourth, beaten 2l, of seven two weeks ago in a claimer; up in distance by an extra 1½f here.
