Presque Isle Downs Race 8 - Race 8 - Mdn Special Weight
APORIA (3) was in contention all the way and fought on for third last start over 1609m at Gulfstream Park Turf (Turf), making it two minor placings in a row. Beautifully placed and is sure to give this a mighty shake. LET'S GO BARBIE (2) returned from a spell two weeks ago when she was prominent at the corner before being beaten 3.5 lengths into fourth over 1106m at this track. Fitter so expect a better run this time. FOZZER (5) is back after a break of 14 months. At the last run before the layoff she finished seventh over 1106m at Keeneland Turf (Turf). Commenced last prep with a minor placing at Turfway Park over 1207m. Has ability and is a leading player. JENADRIYAH (8) was in contention on the corner and finished second last time over 1106m at this track (Synthetic), beaten 2.25 lengths. Will trim down following recent racing. Sure to be thereabouts.

At debut, raced on speed throughout when 3rd of 9 at Tampa Bay Downs Turf on April 26 over 1006m, 6 len behind Dunloe carrying 53.5kg at $18.50. Encouraging effort on debut but this might be too tough.
