Verdict
I C Fire finished runner-up here last time and should confirm running with third-placed Oh What A Ride. Firstclasstoparis drops in class but has yet to race over this far while Sweet Sarah Bear also has something to prove over today’s trip judged on her latest attempt though that came in better company than this. SALSA VERDE was fancied to go close shipping-in from Santa Anita on her latest start but could only manage third. This looks easier and Paul Aguirre’s filly may prove the one to side with.
