Verdict: OUT MY DEAR is hard to look beyond. She could capitalise if the leaders go too fast. Miss Springsteen and Panamaniac could also have a say.

Panamaniac

Jockey: Luis Gonzalez Trainer: Valerie Shanyfelt Age/Wt: 11/8-11 F: 4-5323

Comment: 16-time course winner and successful 22 times from 70 career runs; out of the frame (beaten 6l in third) upped to 1m four weeks ago in a claimer; drops to a $7.5k tag from $16k; hard to ignore.

Out My Dear

Jockey: Alexander Chavez Trainer: Justin Radosevich Age/Wt: 7/8-11 F: 434-45

Comment: Winner of five races at this venue; fair effort when beaten 7l, finishing fifth of six in a claimer three weeks ago; in for a $7.5k tag so down in class ($16k last time); she's a serious player as her peak speed figure over the past year puts her clear and has been on the scene in the recent past.

Comment: Subpar since successful in a claimer at Thistledown in September and no longer appears to be improving; behind Chloes Angel when beaten 15l (fifth of six) last month in a claimer; concern she might not be fully tuned up so has some questions to answer.

Jockey: Fernando Becerra Salazar Trainer: Nestor Rivera Age/Wt: 9/8-11 F: 424534

Affair To Remember

Jockey: Noel Vigil Trainer: Richard Genovese Age/Wt: 4/8-11 F: 2-U233

Comment: Long-term maiden (0-10) but appears to be on the upgrade judged on two most recent runs; split Runaway Power (runner-up) and Balki Bartokomous (fourth) in a maiden special weight (bumped at the start) when third of six two weeks ago; needs considering.

Praise N Glory

Jockey: Chelsey Keiser Trainer: Ivan Vazquez Age/Wt: 3/8-3 F: 135153

Comment: Proven that she knows how to get her head in front (seeking a fifth win); beaten 3l 14 days ago when sent off 11-1 in an allowance race; others more persuasive.

Comment: Four wins from six runs over C&D, including last time when beating 11 rivals (evens); aiming to complete a hat-trick; needs to be taken seriously now dropping in class.

Lofty Cowtown

Jockey: Anthony Nunez Trainer: Megan Fadlovich Age/Wt: 5/8-7 F: 6-7612

Comment: Has won five times here and proven that she knows how to get her head in front (seeking a seventh win); behind Authoritarian Girl five weeks ago when beaten 8l into runner-up at 18-1 in a stakes; might find this company a little easier but makes little appeal.

Kettle Kiss

Jockey: Erik Barbaran Trainer: Jeffrey Radosevich Age/Wt: 5/8-7 F: 8-2635

Comment: Was fifth of seven, beaten 12l, in a claimer 13 days ago upped to 1m; form has been a bit mixed lately and hasn't won for a while; meeting some horses in good form and only limited appeal.

Ryka

Jockey: Chelsey Keiser Trainer: David Wolochuk Age/Wt: 2/8-6

Comment: The sire's progeny are not always overly precocious; shares a dam with Into Gold, a 6f winner; easy to see her making an impression as some good aspects to her profile.

Calling Tillie

Jockey: Jose Bracho Trainer: Justin Radosevich Age/Wt: 2/8-6

Comment: Running for the first time; bred to get better with time; must be high on list with signs of encouragement in profile.

Bokeh

Jockey: Rocco Bowen Trainer: S Kintz Age/Wt: 2/8-6

Comment: May need the run being from this trainer; makes first racecourse appearance; worth a look in the market but passed over otherwise.

Nava's Gold

Jockey: Luis Rivera Trainer: James Jackson Age/Wt: 2/8-6 F: 2

Comment: Didn't run too badly on her debut over C&D (5-2) four weeks ago (bumped); related to Stakes winner Timeless Bounty; if building on promise shown first time out is a very interesting runner.

Seyval Blanc

Comment: Sibling of Cinsault (6f winner); trainer not synonymous with debutant winners; difficult to fancy strongly without some encouraging signs from the betting.

Gray Perfection

Jockey: Yan Aviles Trainer: Michael Rone Age/Wt: 2/8-6

Comment: Trainer not synonymous with debutant winners; making her racecourse bow; market confidence needed to make her of interest.

Jockey: Edgar Paucar Trainer: Susan Yoder Age/Wt: 5/8-7 F: 652233

Comment: Low strike-rate of 1-32 but running consistently; a close third splitting Wild Mariah and Cowgirls Humor last month in a claimer; if she is able to build on her most recent effort then likely to be involved.

Bold Ruby

Jockey: Mauro Cedillo Trainer: Andrew Tumblin Age/Wt: 4/8-7 F: 15-468

Comment: Not always shown an awful lot since winning a maiden special weight at Mahoning Valley in November; behind Queen Kitty and Pride And Attitude (third and fifth) here when beaten 15l (eighth of nine) last month in an allowance race; first attempt in claiming company; unlikely to achieve more than just a supporting role.
