CATCHN SOUTHERN RAYS (3) was last at the races when she won over 1f180yards at Will Rogers Downs (Dirt) on November 12. Expect her to play a major role. JESS A SPITTIN CANDY (2) lifted strongly to score by 0.3 lengths two runs back at Turf Paradise (Dirt) then finished fifth over 1f130yards in Group 2 class at this track (Dirt) last time in tougher grade. Well-placed to return to winning form. NINE ONE WON (9) finished 1.2 lengths back in fifth in stakes company last time over 1f130yards at Group 3 level at this track (Dirt). Did win in a by 0.1 lengths at this track (Dirt). Winning rider Mario Delgado stays aboard. Capable of running a bold race. L GALLITO (6) turned in a fair effort at Canterbury Park (Dirt) over 1f31yards at his last run eight months ago, finishing fourth and beaten 2.75 lengths. Looks a strong top-three prospect.
