DALA (1) was returning from a break last time out and proved too classy, scoring by 0. 3 lengths over 5½f at Churchill Downs (Turf). Fitter for that last hitout and looks sure to run well again. Can make it back-to-back wins. SAM'S TREASURE (7) switches to synthetic for the first time. Scored last start with a nose to spare on dirt over 6f at Keeneland. Record at this journey is impressive with two wins and two placings from five runs and is sure to play a big role. GIRL OF MY DREAMS (6) is back from a lay-off of ten weeks. Closed last campaign with a minor placing over 6f in the G3 Ontario Fashion Stakes at Woodbine. Sure to make her presence felt. GATA BRAZIL (2) resumes from a lay-off of three-and-a-half months and is having her first outing under new trainer M J Maker. Finished seventh at Fairgrounds (Turf) over 5½f at the opening run last time in work.
