O'Keeffe had the form to figure last year and returns to action along with Regal Chant. The latter finished ahead of Redeem My Heart when scoring at Presque Isle in October while Dealer's Girl met trouble in-running here last time and is preferred to No Mercy Percy if getting a clear run. PUNTSVILLE was also below par on her reappearance but ended last year with a victory in a stakes race at Hawthorne and Michele Boyce’s charge should go close in this company if producing a similar effort today.
