DANCING RAQUEL (3) Rattled home nicely into 2nd beaten by 10L last time at this venue and taking on easier opposition. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Rates well and should be taken seriously. COOKIN THE BOOKS (1) Finished 4th last time around here. Looking for an improved run and facing a weaker group of contenders. Jockey Ademar Santos and trainer James M Watkins are usually competitive together. Solid claims. WORD GAME (2) Moderate showing when 6th last run at this venue but taking on a lower class of opponents. Shows very good closing speed. Will try to take advantage of the alley. Keep in mind. FROSTY AFFAIR (4) Couldn't maintain the pace when 7th last run at this track. Happy to forgive that run and competing in a less challenging grade. Will be positive in the run early. Include in chances.
