(# 1) PAPA WHEELY - Solid 2nd in debut. Took money that day. Run down last 1/8th of a mile by a well meant runner. Unless any of the 1sters show early speed, this 2 year old should be able to spurt clear early and wire the field. Trainer Linda Rice has been havin g a very strong meet. 2 solid works for this race over the inner. Good post for speedsters.

(# 8) Golden Amulet - Third place finish in debut was better than it looks on paper. Widre rally under mild urging. 2nd place finisher came back to score. 3 works since that race. Should be closing best on top selection.

(# 9) Richbourne Court - Good 4th Dec 9 off a freshening. Hard used chasing top pick. Victimized by slop and meeting stakes rivals as a 1st timer in debut. Adds lasix which should result in an improved effort.
