COMPELLING STAR makes 13th try at graduating, and has shown signs of life in past unlike a few others in here. New jock in irons. TOP PARTNER Dynaformer gelding showed little when breaking from outside post in stretchout try. Gets drop in class here.

SATURDAY DANCE Roman Ruler runner worked well in two breezes over track and debuts here off of two-month break after decent campaign at Hawthorne. DESIGNATOR Silver Train gelding returns off claim and steps up after fading in stretch in last. Should be in the mix. UNCLE GRED drops in class after two sixth-place finishes at longer.

STROUD POINT only off board once in last 10 starts, owning five seconds and five thirds from 14 starts. Faded in mud as the favorite in last and makes her second start since late December. Today could be hers. COLD BLOODED GAL debuted in the mud and lacked a rally beating half the field. Barn better with second start. MY LIBERTINE tired after showing speed in the mud while making her first start in nearly eight months. Better expected.

TANIVAN exited tiring effort in stakes at Laurel, then returned with speed to spare in last in the mud as the favorite at today’s level. SMARTY SLEWY had a wide trip over a muddy strip in last, which was same race as above runner. Breaks from same post here, and can offer better trip. AT FIRST SPEIGHT gets a bit of a drop here after closing well in last two starts.

SMILESTONE Mizzen Mast filly gets Lasix for barn that hits at 22% when debuting at this level. Works are decent, and mile can be tough for first start, but doesn’t face a tough bunch. BOXFORD BELLE Afleet Alex filly third in debut, then five wide for fourth at today’s distance at Laurel while debuting with Lasix. MUGGLES gets class relief after facing tougher in all five starts thus far and gets added ground, which barn scores at 29% when sending a runner to do so.

SHE REALLY DIGS ME hasn’t been off board in last five starts and a runner-up in last three at this level. Had excuse of mud in last, and could get job done with these. LADY JUNIOR broke maiden in last, which was 22nd start, but fits with these. LITTLE ITALY claimed two back, stepped up in class and was four wide before tiring to sixth. Now drops.

Former rider returns and gelding gets class relief for barn that shows 25% rate of scoring when making first start off a layoff. BELLISSIMA LUNA in search of fourth straight victory after drifting out in last and wiring field at Laurel. Barn solid at all angles.

SECRET SHIFTERS Lemon Drop Kid ridgling just missed in Aqueduct route and has been strong runner since breaking maiden four back, and switching to route tries. Fits well here. DEEP WATER knocking on door since getting added ground and trying this level in last two starts. Bug rider takes reins. SUE THEM ALL made debut here at this level and lacked a rally in the mud after last 10 starts were on polytrack at Woodbine. Can make up ground today.
