Verdict: FLIGHT CONTROL can prove superior to her rivals. She bids for a third course success and could benefit if the front runners set off too quick.

Bustinroxy

Jockey: Heman Harkie Trainer: Eskei Beech Age/Wt: 5/8-10 F: 64-326

Comment: Likes it here (five wins); 4l behind the winner, Kaz Music, here over 5½f (optional claimer) two weeks ago; been struggling to get her head in front recently so not hard to turn elsewhere.

Jolly Miss Jill

Jockey: Andre Worrie Trainer: Assaf Ronen Age/Wt: 5/8-12 F: 65921

Comment: Won by 3½l in a claimer last month on debut for this trainer; despite that Finger Lakes success, others have more pressing claims.

Kaz Music

Jockey: Michael Jr Davila Trainer: Timothy Murphy Age/Wt: 5/8-12 F: 534511

Comment: Gained narrow success in an optional claimer accounting for Diva Banker, with fifth and Bustinroxy further back two weeks ago; bidding for a hat-trick and has gained four wins over C&D; could go well.

Violent Vixen

Jockey: Keiber Coa Trainer: M Ferraro Age/Wt: 7/8-12 F: 01-15

Comment: Useful in this grade and smart performer at one stage; far from disgraced (beaten just under 3l) in an optional claimer 15 days ago, a race won by the reopposing Kaz Music; form of the stable is a plus; is respected.

Comment: Successful by just over 3l last month in an allowance race; admirable career strike-rate (four from 11 to date) and going for a hat-trick; should be involved.

Diva Banker

Jockey: Joel Cruz Trainer: David Oyola Age/Wt: 9/8-12 F: 23-143

Comment: Mostly consistent recently; ran a good race in defeat when a close third over 5½f here (optional claimer) two weeks ago, behind the reopposing Kaz Music; her best looks to be behind her and easy enough to take on.

Beauty's Bangle

Jockey: Andre Worrie Trainer: Patrick Baratta Age/Wt: 5/8-10 F: 1651-4

Comment: Fair effort when beaten 7l, finishing fourth of six in an allowance race two weeks ago; has chalked up two wins from her last five; others have more pressing claims as a few rivals look in good form.

Jockey: Luis Perez Trainer: James Acquilano Age/Wt: 3/8-8 F: 15-15

Jockey: Steven Fret Trainer: Michael Ferraro Age/Wt: 5/8-10 F: 1167-

Comment: Didn't run too badly when out of the frame here (beaten 7l) in November in an allowance race; has chalked up two wins from her last four; back from an absence here; others more appealing in what appears to be a competitive contest.

Devilly

Ouch That Hurt

Jockey: Jeremias Flores Trainer: Paul Barrow Age/Wt: 9/8-10 F: 43122-

Comment: Solid effort when beaten 2½l to finish second in November in a claimer; a multiple C&D winner and smart performer at one stage; layoff to overcome; jockey booking is a positive; must go on the shortlist as best speed figure over the past year reads well comparatively and she has won after a layoff previously.

Fedalia

Jockey: Joey Martinez Trainer: Timothy Murphy Age/Wt: 7/8-10 F: 45-5

Comment: Out of the frame when fifth (split Kaufy Futures and Wabaunsee) two weeks ago in a claimer; no winning form at this trip and hasn't won for a while; claiming tag rises from $4k last time; makes limited appeal as best days now look to behind her.

Mind Of Gold

Jockey: Christian Navarro Trainer: David Oyola Age/Wt: 8/8-10 F: 2446-2

Comment: Not beaten far when runner-up in a claimer just ahead of Sabreen dropped back in distance last month; one-time useful operator and has a good record over course and distance (four wins from 20 runs); recent effort was creditable so by no means ruled out.

Comment: Performed at a higher level than this in his peak and good C&D record (three wins); split Lookin' Super and Mister J T when fifth two weeks ago posting a respectable effort in a claimer; J Rohena having only ride on the card; one to take seriously; may be sharper for the run last time and his last run was encouraging.

Comment: Hasn't really fired since his success in a claimer at Belmont At The Big A in October; finished eighth but wasn't beaten too far (6l) 16 days ago in a claimer; claiming tag now upped from $10k; his best looks to be behind him and passed over.

Comment: Unbeaten at this C&D after two runs; missed out by just under 2l in a stakes (Aqueduct, muddy track) in April; good record under Jeremias Flores (partnership reunited here); likely to be in contention as has proven capable of posting bigger numbers than these rivals and has previously gone well fresh off a break.

Eros's Girl

Jockey: Sofia Vives Trainer: M Ferraro Age/Wt: 6/8-12 F: -7211

Comment: Accounted for Sandy's Garden and True Empress when winning with a bit to spare in an allowance optional claimer last month; attempts to land a hat-trick and better than this level in her prime; in the mix.

Verdict: LAUGHTER is a firm choice. She is a winner and the form of her last race has been franked. Forty Smooth and Makeajoyfulnoise could also have a role to play.

Jayla

Jockey: Andre Worrie Trainer: Ralph D Alessandro Age/Wt: 5/8-10 F: 411-55

Comment: Multiple course winner; held in fifth in a claimer last month; a lot on her plate here and others more appealing.

Forty Smooth

Jockey: Jose Baez Trainer: Dana Saul Age/Wt: 7/8-10 F: 25343-

Comment: Well held having been fancied when third in a claimer upped to 1m½f in November; better than this level in her pomp and has managed five wins from 22 career runs; layoff to overcome; may be involved.

Laughter

Jockey: Kevin Navarro Trainer: Jonathan Buckley Age/Wt: 6/8-10 F: 8-4425

Comment: Season-ticket holder here with three wins; not beaten too far when fifth here in an optional claimer last month; has strong claims.

Sweet Invasion

Jockey: Keiber Coa Trainer: James Acquilano Age/Wt: 6/8-10 F: 412-5

Comment: Record over this course and distance is three wins from 17 runs; not disgraced when fifth 28 days ago in a claimer; meeting some horses in good form and has some questions to answer.

Makeajoyfulnoise

Jockey: Emanuel Diego De Trainer: Timothy Murphy Age/Wt: 7/8-10 F: 6-4227

Comment: Split Let's Maga and Investment Grade when seventh two weeks ago in a claimer; has achieved seven wins from 33 career runs and specialist here with four wins; looks likely to be involved given she was second (albeit some way back) two starts ago.

Investment Grade

Jockey: Carlos Camilo Trainer: Jose Rohena Age/Wt: 7/8-10 F: 58-528

Comment: Specialist here with four wins but perhaps looks to have to reached her ceiling; last of eight two weeks ago in a claimer; a lot on her plate here and others have more pressing claims.

Trivia

Jockey: Joel Cruz Trainer: Debra Breed Age/Wt: 7/8-12 F: 29-231

Comment: Won a claimer by 5l two weeks ago; five-time C&D winner; in the mix as despite being up in class she appears to be in good form.

Super Slide

Jockey: Rafael Jr Rohena Trainer: Donna Bireta Age/Wt: 5/8-10 F: 533-45

Comment: Likes it here (four wins) but could be at the extent of her ability; finished fifth, beaten a fair way over 1m here (claimer, sloppy track) five weeks ago; facing a testing assignment and hard to make a case.

Let's Maga

Comment: Knows this place inside out (five course wins); ahead of Makeajoyfulnoise and Investment Grade when third (beaten 9l) two weeks ago in a claimer; in the mix.
