Race 1 Comments: SEBOOMOOK BEAUTY was used twice in fast pace, held well for show in 1:57.2 mile. Moves inside and seems to have the most upside of any in here. ARYIANA STAR finished in front of top one last time off perfect pocket trip. Gives up position edge but appears better than the rest.

Race 2 Comments: MCARD ATTACK had tough uncovered trip last time, pushed a :29.1 third quarter and didn’t fade badly. Two back lacked a rally after chasing hot pace from the pocket through sizzling 1:55.3 mile. Draws tough spot but appears sharp enough to surprise these at a decent price.
