Verdict: GRACELEADSUSHOME has to be the first name on the shortlist. She looks set to capitalise if the leaders go too fast, while Integrated Design, Just Is and Sharp Az Can Be can't be ruled out either.

Sharp Az Can Be

Jockey: Luis Negron Trainer: Johanna Urieta Age/Wt: 4/8-8 F: 436555

Comment: Came up short at Thistledown when fifth of six in a claimer a week ago; first attempt on turf; should not be far away based on the pick of her form and this likely leader is three wins from five starts when front-running.

Jockey: Kyle Gilbert Trainer: Jose Silva Age/Wt: 5/8-8 F: 442175

Comment: Finished last of five over 6f here (claimer) 14 days ago; has won previously at this course; $12.5k claiming tag this time (up from $4k); may have to settle for supporting role.

Sweet Baby Ray

Jockey: Charle Oliveros Trainer: Eric Reed Age/Wt: 6/8-8 F: 19-823

Comment: Has winning track form; successful three times from 5f to 7f; not beaten too far when third at Presque Isle Downs 44 days ago in a claimer; $12.5k claiming tag this time (up from $6.3k); likely to be in contention if replicating the best of her form.

Just Is

Comment: Can be a player at this level; not disgraced when fifth (Santa Anita) three months ago in an optional claimer; higher claiming tag here so class rise to contend with; capable if in the mood so has a chance.

Charlottes Way

Jockey: Brandon Tapara Trainer: John Brown Age/Wt: 6/8-11 F: 02341

Comment: Surprise 28-1 winner nine days ago dropped down to 4½f in a claimer; managed two wins in her last six outings; switching to turf for the first time; higher claiming tag here so up in class; despite that Mountaineer Park success, there are better alternatives here.

Graceleadsushome

Jockey: Andrew Ramgeet Trainer: Tina Ramgeet Age/Wt: 6/8-8 F: 08627

Comment: Last of seven upped to 1m½f last Wednesday (Presque Isle Downs) in an optional claimer; successful three times from 22 career outings (6f-1m) and she meets the required standard ability wise; now down in class (in for $12.5k from $16k); strong contender judged on finishing second two starts back and boasts the best speed figure posted by any of this field in the last 12 months.

Color Me Legendary

Jockey: Alejandro Gomez Trainer: Melinda Sanders Age/Wt: 6/8-8 F: 7656

Jockey: Agustin Bracho Trainer: Juan Vazquez Age/Wt: 4/8-8 F: 159-7

Comment: Beaten seventh of eight on his first start for this trainer two weeks ago (sloppy track) in an allowance optional claimer; he meets the required standard ability wise; more than capable if on song so has a chance.

Comment: Going for a hat-trick and seems to be improving based on last two runs; came out on top by just over 2l (sloppy track) two weeks ago in an allowance race; easy to oppose despite that win last time.

Jockey: Edgar Paucar Trainer: W Jenkins Age/Wt: 4/8-8 F: 0-54

Jockey: Andrew Ramgeet Trainer: Stephani Norris Age/Wt: 6/8-8 F: 56-75

Comment: Beaten 7l into fifth last month when ahead of Color Me Legendary and Undertow in an allowance race; has scored over C&D; he can be competitive at this level; good record under Andrew Ramgeet (partnership reunited here); knows how to win so likely to be involved.

Tragically Quewick

Jockey: Agustin Bracho Trainer: Jami Poole Age/Wt: 7/8-8 F: -345

Comment: Fair effort when beaten 6l, finishing fifth of ten (muddy track) two weeks ago in a claimer; track has proven suitable before; his best looks to be behind him and unlikely to trouble the principals.

Stryda

Jockey: Joe Stokes Trainer: Kent Knudsen Age/Wt: 5/8-8 F: 21183

Comment: Not beaten too far when third of seven in an optional claimer (Charles Town) behind Little Bit Of That, 20 days ago; successful three times in her last six starts; has winning form at this track; must be high on list.

Movinglikeawinner

Jockey: Alejandro Gomez Trainer: Jose Silva Age/Wt: 6/8-8 F: 325742

Comment: Beaten narrowly in an allowance optional claimer at Turf Paradise three months ago; record shows she knows where the winning post is (wins-runs record of 7-26) and consistent lately; one to take seriously if building on last performance and her peak speed figure over the past year puts her clear.

Jockey: Luis Negron Trainer: Jose Silva Age/Wt: 5/8-8 F: 363114

Comment: Has winning form at this track; can be a player at this level; not beaten too far when fourth here in a claimer two months ago; claiming value now drops to $4k; in the mix.

Revenue Train

Jockey: Andrew Ramgeet Trainer: Tina Ramgeet Age/Wt: 5/8-8 F: 3-614

Comment: Successful twice in her last five starts; grade looks suitable; solid run when fourth here over 1m (claimer) with Boccabella just behind ten days ago; has strong claims as boasts the best speed figure posted by this field in the last 12 months.

Ante Angel

Jockey: Ricardo Barrios Trainer: Denis Cluley Age/Wt: 5/8-8 F: 2-634

Boccabella

Jockey: Alejandro Gomez Trainer: William Witherow Age/Wt: 4/8-8 F: 7-4735

Comment: Has winning form over this course and distance on the CV; form has been a bit mixed lately; behind Revenue Train upped to 1m ten days ago when beaten 13l (fifth of six) in a claimer; this line-up contains some strong opposition so best left.
