Aqueduct Race 8 - Ruthless S. Stakes
SHILLING (7) could only manage fourth last start over 1811m in the G2 Demoiselle Stakes at this track (Dirt), beaten 12 lengths. Has a strong record this course, scoring at two of four starts. Likely to feature. TWO BITS (5) comes here off a last-start second, beaten 11 lengths, over 1609m at this track. Among the top chances. INTERSTATELOVESONG (2) broke through for her maiden win over 1308m at this track (Dirt) last time, scoring comfortably. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Shaping up nicely and she is a solid top-three hope. OUR GOLDEN GATOR (3) scored on debut last start over 1207m at Parx on January 14, finishing 2.5 lengths ahead of the nearest rival. Solid top-three hope.
