A fairly weak contest in which a chance can be taken with the class-dropping SHOCKWAVE. The Khozan One and Lookinassah look the pick of the remainder.

BADBADBOBBY kept on well for third in a hotter claimer at this track earlier this month and commands respect with that in mind. Rod Two Rod and Agarramesipuedes are feared most.

A fairly tricky puzzle to solve in which preference lies with NYSSA, who recorded a decent third over 6f at this track earlier this month. Grace Candy and Wildcat Star are others to note.

HOWE STREET showed promise on his debut at Aqueduct last April and, given that he is likely to have strengthened up since then, he looks worth chancing in this wide-open maiden. Happy Runner shapes as if it's only a matter for time before he gains a breakthrough success, while Chucka Moon is also considered.

OLGA has an edge over the once-raced Tribute in terms of experience and looks a safer option on this occasion. Miss Ucrania is suggested as the best of the rest.

OLYMPIC RUNNER can take advantage of a drop in grade having struggled to land a blow on a couple of occasions last summer. Border Town and Malibu Uproar also need to be taken seriously.

STRONG QUALITY has been performing admirably in defeat of late and holds leading claims if running to a similar level on his first appearance at this track. Petulante isn't taken lightly and looks the chief threat ahead of last-time-out maiden winner Iconic Adventure.

DEMOGORGON comes with risks attached after proving underwhelming since being switched to dirt, but she brings some strong turf form to the table and would prove tough to beat if recapturing that level. French Franc was collared late on over C&D last month and is another to consider, with Boston Princess rating next best.

UNCORK THE BOTTLE and Sea Trident are closely matched at the revised weights after finishing first and second here last month, but the former has proved more convincing over 6f and gets the vote. Malibu Secret may chase the aforementioned duo home.
