Verdict

Verdict

CHITCHATCHITCHAT won over C&D at Laurel Park and should be competitive despite disqualification the last time out. Daddario finished third in a higher-grade starter allowance at Churchill Downs and merits consideration. Lady Valor was runner-up in stakes company the last time out.

Top Tip: Chitchatchitchat (4)
Watch out for: Daddario (3)
