No. 8 Rosa (4-1) looked good from off the pace in her winning debut in an all-weather sprint at Woodbine on July 8. She was a wide fourth in the Catch a Glimpse on turf at Woodbine second time out. She adds blinkers and might bounce back at a hint of a price.

No. 9 Living Magic (7-2) added blinkers and wired the field in the My Dear Stakes at 5 1/2 furlongs on all-weather ground on July 15. She chased outside and weakened in the Catch a Glimpse on turf last time. She should be all over the pace. 

No. 5 Practicallyelusive (3-1) was strong as the favorite in both dirt sprint wins in the Ohio-bred ranks at Thistledown. The surface switcher should make her presence felt from the outset. 

No. 10 Snow Dance (6-1) is a maiden after three starts. She ran well in her turf route bow and raced evenly second time out. She turned back and switched to dirt on Sept. 3, and dueled and missed by a length. She owns competitive speed ratings.
