(# 5) JOVANNA - Entered one other time but she didn't scratch in. Works are excellent and trainer Dick Dutrow is one of the best at getting them ready to win on their first time out (28%). Lasix on and Bejarano named. Trainer-jockey combination is strong, 25 for their last 102 together.

(# 1) City Of Lights - Entered and scratched the other day. Trainer Tony Dutrow is much better with second-time runners than debut runners. However, he wins his share first-out, and the works on this filly indicate talent is present. Main rider at trainer's home base of Delaware Park, Jeremy Rose is named today.

(# 3) Winning Punch - Went favored in initial start, and did a professional job to finish second. Barn is very strong second time out (26%). A win today would be no surprise.

(# 6) Upper Level - Heavily backed in debut, Contessa runner lost all chance when she leapt in the air at the start. Ran on well to finish second on the off-track. This group may be a bit tougher than she faced that day.
