FANNY M (5) finished fifth over 6f at this track at her most recent appearance on December 7. Lines up. For the first time for trainer robert p tiller. One of the genuine hopes in the race. NO VISOR (6) is back after a break of four-and-a-half months. At the last run before the layoff she finished fourth over 1m1/4f at this track. Bold showing expected. SULTRY SOPHIE (7) is back after a break of four-and-a-half months. At the last run before the layoff she finished eighth over 6f at this track. Rates highly on best figures and should be right in this. SARATOGA EMPRESS (2) is a three-year-old filly who is having her first run for the Steven Chircop barn. Finished off last campaign with a sixth at Gulfstream Park (Synthetic) three months ago. Not seen at the trials but is in a nice race. Can run a bold race.
