SMOOVE OVER (5) led throughout last start to score an effortless 9 lengths win over 6f at Mountaineer Park (Dirt). Commendable record at this trip with a win and four minor placings and is among the leading chances. OUR LADY PEACE (1) produced a good run two starts back to finish second but was below par last time when out of the placings at this track (Dirt) over the same trip after she had settled well back. Ideally placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. LIL Set Weights EEZEY (2) ran below expectations last time at Charles Town (Dirt), finishing sixth and beaten 9 lengths starting at 7/2. Finds a nice race and can bounce back. STELLA E VELOCE (4) has not won for a long while. Last raced on December 10 when beaten 12 lengths into seventh at this track (Dirt) over 6f. Has the talent to return to the winners' list.
