RUNRATE (3) turned in a sound effort last time but found one better at Sam Houston Park (Turf) over 1m, beaten 0.3 lengths. Should be at her peak now. No excuses from this draw leading player. ANDREA DIANE (4) tested on a turf track for the first time. After a short layoff. Kicked off the last campaign with a sixth at Oaklawn Park (Dirt) over 6f. One of the genuine hopes in the race. SUGARCOAT (7) was responsible for a solid effort last time out when third at Sam Houston Park (Turf) over 1m, beaten half a length. Hasn't been far away this time in work with four minor placings from five starts. One of the main contenders. COFFEE KISSES (5) was out of the money when resuming but has since been on the money on two consecutive occasions, the latest when third over 6f at Sam Houston Park (Dirt). Should camp just off the leaders. Deserves respect on best figures.
