Hotalena won by a head over track and trip recently with the temperamental SWOOPER a length behind. But the latter had to make up lots of ground having blown the start and looks capable of reversing the form with a clean break. Bayamon Belle and Apache Mist finished further behind Hotalena last time while For Peat's Sake will take advantage of a slide down the weights before long and is preferred to Little Sunflower.
