FLYING JOY 1 (7) is a progressive three-year-old filly who hasn't raced since finishing second over 2f at The Albuquerque Downs Racetrack & Casino (Dirt) on August 4 which was the only run of that prep. Has never missed the frame when fresh from a lay-off in two starts. Has an impressive strike rate at this distance with three wins from six runs and should be hard to stop. EMERALD BAY (2) comes here off a break of five-and-a-half months. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last time in work over 1½f at this track. Capable of playing a major role. ITS A GOOD VALENTINE (6) is back from a lay-off of three-and-a-half months. Raced once last campaign and finished third over 1f180yards at Los Alamitos Qh (Dirt). Lining up. For the first time for trainer Jose U Lopez. Form at this distance is strong with five wins from eight starts and has to be included. A DESPERATE EAGLE (9) is back after a break of 11 weeks. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1f180yards at Evangeline Downs. Has switched to the Josue Jacob Garcia stable. Has to be respected.
