- (6) His Royal Majesti- needs to overcome his slow start per the last race but has the speed here to clear. (6,1,4,2)
- (10) Wagon Dashin- dropping in here and stretching out with a solid third last time out. Consistent improvement over the last three races makes him a factor in here. (10,8,6,7)
- (2) Queens Royal Ride- cutting back in here and dropping. Has had a rough start in the first four races. A cleaner trip could get it done in here. (2,3,8,7)
- (4) Neoking- dropping and I like the placement. Has the ability to stalk in here and bring it late. (4,6,2,3)
- (2) Big Firm- dropping and will be part of the early pace and make the others come get him. (2,4,1,6)
- (5)Mistletolee- stretching out after a solid second last out. Will be pushing it early and establishing the pace for the others. (5,4,1,3)
- (5) Hooked On Dreams- cutting back after a solid win last out. Will be setting the pace in here. (5,4,7,3)
- (4) Vern- she is stretching out in here after two gutsy races where she finished third. She has the late kick to get the win in here. Top jock will be up. (4,1,3,5)
- (6) Denington- dropping and first race since the recent claim. Has the ability to stalk in here and make a late run. Solid jock up in here. (6,3,2,1)
- (7) Shut Up Man- cutting back in here and is moving up after a solid third which he was driving on. First race back after the claim. (7,2,4,3)
