Any Limit (#4) finished 5th by 8-lengths in his debut, but that race was much more impressive then his past performances would indicate. He broke poorly and started several lengths behind the field before rushing up into second place as they turned for home. Any horse would be expected to quit in the stretch after a horrible trip like that, but that was his career debut! Winner of that race, How True It Is, is a monster in the making and vast improvement is expected today.

Noblewoman (#5) was a $750,00 sales purchase and makes her career debut for trainer Eoin Harty. Solid work tab at Palm Meadows shows this son of A.P. Indy is ready for action, but might appreciate a longer race then today's 6 1/2 furlongs. It should be noted that AP Indy offspring win 13% of their career debuts.

Tiffed (#7) is an exquisitely bred 3-year-old by Seattle Slew out of a Seeking The Gold mare. Shows 2 bullet morning workouts in preparation for this at Payson Park. Hall Of Fame trainer Bill Mott lets jockey Cruz in the saddle, but they've teamed up for one winner in 2 attempts at this Gulfstream meet.

Bertrina (#9) is an Adena Springs home-bred, which they still own. Her mother Global is a Stakes winner of $312,000. Shows 7 works for this race since Feb. 1 and you can be sure he is plenty fit for this.
