Disguised Devil

Jockey: Valentin Esquivel Trainer: Michael Reavis Age/Wt: 3/8-1 F: 22

Comment: Had two of these rivals behind her last month when 6l runner-up in a maiden special weight; if the penny drops, should get involved.

Buttons And Lace

Jockey: Alexis Centeno Trainer: Michele Boyce Age/Wt: 3/8-6

Comment: This daughter of Goldencents is running for the first time; a major contender as promising workout history.

Trinity's Prize

Jockey: Israel Hernandez Trainer: Chris Block Age/Wt: 4/8-12 F: 3

Comment: Held on her debut over 5½f at 14-5 21 days ago; should be in the mix if giving a more streetwise showing.

Comment: Finished fourth, beaten a fair way on first run for her current trainer last month in a maiden special weight; others more persuasive.

Savvy Smila

Jockey: Victor Santiago Trainer: Hugh Robertson Age/Wt: 3/8-6

Comment: Related to 6f winner Bunny Shine; stable has a good record with newcomers here; bred on sire side to appreciate sprint distances; hard to fancy unless market points the other way against rivals with form already in the book.

Verdict: Firm preference is for ARRIVEDERCCI. She didn't have much luck in running last time, encountering traffic problems. Racing The Light is another for the shortlist.

Waggle Pass

Jockey: Carlos Ulloa Trainer: Earl Hughes Age/Wt: 4/8-12 F: 0/2-

Comment: Second in Turfway Park maiden claimer, 7l off winner last January; long absence to overcome; could be a bit flattered by latest effort so tricky to make a case.

Arrivedercci

Jockey: Walter Rodriguez Trainer: Larry Rivelli Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 3-45

Comment: Finished last of five last month in a maiden special weight; represents top trainer and nicely bred (by Good Bye Greg); big player as she now drops into a maiden claimer for the first time and has been on the scene in the recent past.

Wild Dreams

Jockey: Alexis Centeno Trainer: Larry Rivelli Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 6

Comment: Ran below expectations first time out evens over C&D (wore blinkers); has a bit to find with Polska Sue (fourth) on that running; from respected yard; in for a $15k tag so down in class ($25k last time); can be on the premises now that she knows her job.

Sioux Revenge

Jockey: Israel Hernandez Trainer: Hugh Robertson Age/Wt: 3/8-6

Comment: Related to 6f winner Wild Time; sire a speed influence; others look more obvious on paper; probably best watched.

Racing The Light

Jockey: Julio Felix Trainer: Joel Campbell Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 32-

Comment: Runner-up, beaten 6l, at Horseshoe Indianapolis in October in a maiden claimer; returns from a layoff; drops to a $15k tag from $20k; should be wiser for experience so shouldn't be far away.

Red Regret

Jockey: Santiago Gonzalez Trainer: Joel Berndt Age/Wt: 3/8-6

Comment: Related to multiple race winner Chem Major (6½f-1m); sire does get winners on the turf; stable more than capable of getting one ready first time out.

Polska Sue

Jockey: Olaf Hernandez Trainer: Daniel Simonovich Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 0-0004

Comment: Found life tough when 12l back in fourth with Wild Dreams just behind a week ago in a maiden claimer; tag has been dropped to $15k; others more persuasive.

Comment: An infrequent winner and no longer appears to be improving; didn't run too badly when out of the frame here (beaten 8l) in a claimer (bobbled at the start) last month; he can be taken on.

Eliza Vance

Jockey: Walter Rodriguez Trainer: Larry Rivelli Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 32-5

Comment: Finished in front of two of these when a disappointing fifth two weeks ago in a maiden special weight; from top trainer and related to Stakes winner Alpine Princess; Larry Rivelli's runners are going great guns at the moment; leading claims as it was interesting that she was well backed last time and a good second two starts back.

Christmas Present

Jockey: Santiago Gonzalez Trainer: David Reid Age/Wt: 10/8-10 F: 34848-

Comment: 12-time winner in his career (from 5½f-1m1f); was eighth of 11, beaten 16l, in a claimer upped to 1m (Turfway Park) five months ago; returns from an absence here; now looks to be past his prime and he can be taken on.

Jockey: Carlos Ulloa Trainer: Carlos Ramirez Age/Wt: 9/8-10 F: 2261-6

Comment: Likes it here (three wins) and better than this level in his pomp; last of six in a claimer two weeks ago, behind Jet Flight.

Jolie Ruler

Comment: Three wins from four runs over C&D, including last time when beating seven rivals (11-2); claiming value now drops to $4k; ought to be competitive.

Go Stormin Girl

Jockey: Alexis Centeno Trainer: Earl Hughes Age/Wt: 8/8-10 F: 29-524

Comment: Has a good C&D record (three wins from ten runs); respectable effort in defeat (beaten 4½l) when close behind Lost Sunset 11 days ago in a claimer; now a lower claiming tag ($4k from $7.5k) so down in class; a once useful performer but not at that level anymore and looks risky.

Awesome Sunday

Jockey: Santiago Gonzalez Trainer: Joel Zawitz Age/Wt: 5/8-10 F: 35-036

Comment: Career record shows her ability to win (wins-runs record of 7-26) and multiple course winner; fair effort (beaten just over 2l) when behind the reopposing Jolie Ruler four weeks ago in a claimer; considered if backing up last run and in off a lower claiming tag.

Ellie Deli

Jockey: Emmanuel Giles Trainer: James Watkins Age/Wt: 5/8-12 F: 6/917-1

Comment: Career record shows her ability to win (wins-runs record of 5-20); gained a 2l success in a claimer last month (sloppy track, Fanduel Sportsbook And Horse Racing) on debut for this trainer; easy to see her making an impression.

Lady Atlantic

Jockey: Carlos Ulloa Trainer: Chris Ryan Age/Wt: 9/8-10 F: 7-75

Comment: Fifth, not beaten that far (40-1) here over 6f (claimer) 11 days ago; knows how to win here but has struggled to factor since winning a claimer at Hawthorne last June; calmer waters here (in for $4k, $5k tag last time).

Kitten Rocks

Jockey: Valentin Esquivel Trainer: Earl Hughes Age/Wt: 7/8-0 F: 524-

Comment: Winner of four starts (range of trips from 6f to 1m) but possible she has reached the ceiling of her ability; beaten 17l in fourth in August upped to 1m½f in a claimer; returns from an absence here; moves down to an easier grade (in for $4k); opposable.

Comment: Solid effort when behind the reopposing Ellie Deli at Fanduel Sportsbook And Horse Racing in a claimer (sloppy track) two weeks ago; perhaps looks to have to reached her ceiling; others appeal more as not in the habit of winning recently.

Comment: Has won here before; one-time useful operator; behind Temper Tantrum over 1m here (claimer) when on the premises, finishing runner-up at 7-2 a week ago; must be high on list as lower claiming tag should make this easier and there was plenty to like about his latest performance.
