    Race Analysis

    WORD PLAY (7) was an impressive winner last time over 1m at this track (Turf), scoring by 2.75 lengths to make it two in a row. Top strike rate at the journey with two wins and six placings from eight starts and is right in this. THEBESTISYETTOBE (12) lifted strongly only to just miss when fresh from a lay-off last start over 1m3f at this track (Turf). Sure to derive great benefit from that run. Placed to advantage so expect another forward showing. YELLOW SUN DRESS (2) returned from a lay-off six weeks ago when she was beaten 4 lengths into seventh over 5f at this track. Has a perfect second up record from two starts including last prep when successful over 6f at Santa Anita. Strips fitter and can feature. GRECIAN GODDESS (3) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a fourth over 1m1/2f at this track (Turf). Hard to beat in this suitable race.
