Nolecce finally got off the mark over hurdles over this course and distance 12 days ago. He's only 4lb higher so a follow-up isn't out of the question and he's preferred to another track and trip scorer, Acapulco Bay. Stag Hill has become disappointing and most of the others have plenty of questions to answer but this is a drop in class for SUMMERTIME LADY. Ben Pauling's mare hasn't run since Boxing Day last year but will handle the soft ground and the handicapper could have possibly given here a few pounds more.
