Big Facts

Jockey: Erik Barbaran Trainer: Marco Ibarra Age/Wt: 4/8-12 F: 41-451

11/10

Comment: Has chalked up two wins from her last four; aiming for a third C&D win after her success here last month; she's a serious player as has proven capable of posting bigger numbers than these rivals and win last time out points to her being able to handle class rise.

National Diamond

Jockey: Angel Diaz Trainer: Nestor Rivera Age/Wt: 4/8-12 F: 4-8161

6/4

Comment: Record shows she knows where the winning post is (wins-runs record of 5-18); wide-margin winner of claimer upped to 1m last Sunday; class riser as runs for a $8k tag here; despite that Mahoning Valley success, has some questions to answer.

Rocky Channel

13/2

Comment: Narrow winner of a claimer (sloppy track) upped to 1m in December; now down in class (in for $8k from $10k); record when fresh isn't great so very difficult to fancy.

Bossy Lady

7/1

Comment: Claimed a second C&D win three weeks ago when successful by a head; class riser as runs for a $8k tag here; others more persuasive with problems getting away from the gates becoming more evident.

Mizzen The Point

Jockey: Victor Fernandez Trainer: Paul Overholt Age/Wt: 6/8-12 F: 6-2134

Comment: She can be competitive at this level; not beaten that far in fourth (9l) two weeks ago in an allowance race; likely to be involved as shown she can win fairly recently.
