MENTY B (2) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 13 lengths when fifth in a 6f contest at this track a week-and-a-half ago after being in contention on the turn. Perfectly placed and is sure to play a major role. SLIM CAUSEWAY (4) was an impressive maiden winner last time out, scoring by 5 lengths over 6½f at Delta Downs (Dirt). Shaping up nicely and she should be in the finish again. MADAME MARKIEVICZ (1) did a great job to score by 4. 5 lengths over this course and distance last start in a much improved run. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot repeat the dose. LITTLE BIT O STORM (3) finished seventh two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 6½f at Delta Downs, beaten 2. 5 lengths. Likely improver so plenty to like about her chances.
