THE SHUSHALA (3) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish fourth, beaten 4.5 lengths, over 6f at this track (Turf). Well placed and expected to feature. PUTT FOR DOUGH (6) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 5½f at this track, beaten 3 lengths into fourth. Likely improver with strong prospects. NALA (2) improved sharply on her fifth two starts back at this track (Dirt) with a win over 5½f at this track (Dirt) six weeks ago, getting home by half a length after being in contention on the bend. Likely to be there at the finish again. GOD'S FAVOR (1) finished 5 lengths from the winner in fourth on turf at this track two starts back. Missed the frame in another run on turf last time at this track over 1m when 15 lengths adrift in seventh. Don't underestimate back on dirt.
