ANTE UP TONY (5) has raced twice. Was second on debut then clocked-in 22 lengths from the winner in sixth last time out over 1m at this track. Better than the last effort and deserves another chance. CAN'TDEALWITHIT (1) gave a bold display over this course and distance when resuming last start, racing on the speed and boxing on well to finish second and beaten 4 lengths. In the right race and is sure to prove hard to beat. QUEEN WILHELMINA (10) is yet to break through in 15 runs. Finished fourth at her last appearance over 5½f at Remington Park (Dirt) on December 4. Cannot be ruled out in this suitable assignment. EMMALLENE (2) was safely held when resuming last start over 6f at this track (Dirt), finishing fifth and beaten 9 lengths. Settles back early but winds up late. A big run is expected.
