6pm – CALENTITA @ 9/4
Calentita definitely has a race of this nature within her grasp and makes appeal debuting for a new barn. Others to note include Princesa Crystal and Laska.
6.34pm – WATER WIZARD @ 10/3
Water Wizard will be winning a maiden claimer like this sooner rather than later judged on recent form, and gets the nod ahead of Trinni Sunshine and Cabrina
7.07pm – DOTDOTDASH @ 4/1
Dot Dot Dash is seemingly improving between runs and this could be the time to catch her, though Awesome Light is an interesting newcomer and Princess Avril should also be taken seriously.
7.39pm – PAYNTER FEST @ 13/8
Paynter Fest has been found a good opening against these rivals and can get back to winning ways at the chief expense of Stormy Boss and Samoa.
8.11pm – VALDOLOBO @ 15/8
Valdolobo has been selectively campaigned and makes plenty of appeal on the back of his course success in January and because top rider Luis Saez takes over in the plate. Willing To Speed and Tricky Magician are others to note.

8.43pm – NO GETTING OVER ME @ 11/8
Untitled is a smart colt who looks sure to go well here, but it could be worth taking a chance on No Getting Over Me, who was last seen contesting a Grade 3 at Tampa. Roman Empire is another to watch out for.
9.15pm – PHAT MAN @ EVS
Phat Man finished a very creditable second on his latest outing in the Grade 2 Gulfstream Park Mile Stakes here in February and is the one they all have to beat on that form. Quenane and Gemonteer should also go well.
9.46pm – TOPO GRIGIO @ 7/2
Topo Grigio won second time up here last month and should have a lot more to come for this potent trainer/jockey combination. Bird Map is another open to further improvement and Money Never Sleeps also boasts sound claims.
10.17pm – TEMPLE @ 2/1
Temple has been knocking hard on the door of late and had a few of these behind when running a massive race in second here last month. He is very much the one they all have to beat, with Opry and Bird’s Eye View the ones expected to put up most resistance.
10.47pm – TRILBY @ 5/2
Trilby has good enough form in the book to win a claimer of this nature and makes plenty of appeal sporting first-time blinkers. Retro Street won’t be far away and Valley Date should also be thereabouts.
