INSTIGATION (1) had a bit on her rivals last time with an impressive 3 lengths win over 6f at this track (Dirt). Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Among the leading chances. REASONS WE DRINK (4) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago at this track. Safely held last time out when second over 6f at this track, beaten 3 lengths after being in contention on the corner. Has raced four times here and has never missed the frame. Erik Barbaran gets the best out of this four-year-old filly. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot make amends. MIESHA (5) went forward when resuming last start over 6f at this track (Dirt) and held on well for third, beaten 5 lengths. In a suitable race and can play a major role. WHISKEY DIAMOND (2) finished seventh over 5½f at Turfway Park (Synthetic) at her most recent appearance on December 17. Hasn't scored when fresh from a break but generally races well with three minor placings. Has switched to the Jay P Bernardini yard. Has found the right race and is worth including.
