(# 1) SILVER PARADISE - Deserving favorite catches softest field in her career. Versatile filly can shoot to the lead or stalk. Reunited with Castellano who forms a strong trainer/rider combo.

(# 9) Jeannine Joy - Hard used dueling from tough inside post in debut. Drops a notch and draws outside which should help. Gets good speed rider. Solid work Nov. 11.

(# 5) Runaway Star - Returns. Big improvement expected off a realistic drop in class. Throw out last in deep mud against far tougher. Cut back only helps.
