(# 1) QUAKER WAY - Good post in a very poor field may allow her in the second off the layoff situation to surprise these. Lightly raced three-year-old probably needed her last badly, as she hadn't run since the end of June. Should move forward off the recent sprint.

(# 4) Miss Malakia - Has the best last race of these to reccommend her. Proven at the price-tag, she is an obvious threat.

(# 7) Lets Go Out west - In-shape runner likes to rate and make a late move. Many in here are in questionable condition, and her present fitness is a plus.

(# 3) Honkeytonkville - Goes third off a layoff and improved a bit in the second start back. If she can repeat it, or move ahead some more, she will factor late.
