ANALYSES OF THESE HORSES ARE PLACED IN POST POSITION ORDER. THESE ARE NOT MY SELECTIONS.

RACE 6

1 CHASING THE QUEEN
Showed more speed when adding Lasix for her 2nd start but had the misfortune of running into a buzzsaw. She chased a hot pace and held to finish a clear 2nd. Better likely in her 3rd lifetime start.

4 ROCHELLE ROCHELLE
2yo Mizzen Mast filly makes her debut today for trainer Charles Simon and this 5 furlong dash on the turf should suit her well. Has shown plenty of ability in a steady work tab and should offer a fair price with Thornton up.

5 PASSION TAMER
This filly has turned in good efforts in her first two career starts on the main strip here for trainer Jerry Quinn. Breeding suggests she can handle the switch to the grass today and she merits respect.

6 SIXTYSIX MARGAUX
Has shown good speed from the gate in all three trips to post for trainer Steve Asmussen. She held on well to finish second here last out at today's distance. Is capable of moving forward on the grass making her a major player today.
