Shanghai Mistress has the form to figure if the race switches to the main track while Cat's Astray also has leading claims. The latter has found only one too good in five of her last six starts now but still has the measure of previous winner Stated, Ballie's Dream and Play That Tone. None of the latter look like reversing running but PALACE TWO STEP may prove good enough as she was beaten only a neck in a tougher claiming race over track and trip last time having had to switch lanes for a run in the homestretch. Joe Orseno’s filly can open her account with normal luck in-running.
