TURF ROCKET (4) returns from a spell of 12 weeks and is having her first run for a new yard. Finished eighth at Laurel (Turf) over 1609m when first-up last time in work. Rates highly and can return in winning form. HITTIN MY STRIDE (5) was beaten just a nose last start when second in a small field over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Is going well this campaign, recording a win and a minor placing from three starts. Expected to be in the finish. CLASSIC PERFORMER (1) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a seventh over 1710m at this track (Dirt). Has the talent to figure prominently. ANNIE'S JOY (3) got the prize two runs ago but was less impressive last time out when tenth over 1106m at this track, beaten 17 lengths. In the mix.
