Verdict
WISHFORMORE gets the token vote after finishing a close-up fourth in a claimer over C&D three weeks ago with a couple of higher rated horses in front. Social Rhythm posted a better effort over track and trip last month and she could figure, while El Libertador scored here on his penultimate start, but turned in a poor effort last time. Princess Gail is now 8lb higher than last month's C&D victory after going close again on her latest start and Miss Villefranche tries her hand handicapping once again after landing a classified race at this track last week.
