Form Snapshot: Ultra-consistent with a recent sharp victory; on a rapidly improving trend. Top selection; should be closing stoutly in the final stages.
Form Snapshot: Form has flattened out recently despite an earlier win at this distance. Faces tough opposition; minor placing is the best scenario.
Form Snapshot: Reliable if unspectacular; has been running close without winning. Can nip into the minor placings with a late flourish.
Form Snapshot: Bounced back with a game performance; will be handy early. Could feature in the frame if producing latest run again.
Verdict
This contest covers 6 furlongs for a purse of $10,900. With only five going to post, MISS SHADY comes in with recent winning form and is likely to be finishing powerfully under Trainer Miller's guidance. VITAEMI will keep the heat on from the outset, while OPULENT WAYS may set a solid early tempo. NEEDED could run on late for a place, but the main battle shapes up between MISS SHADY and VITAEMI.
