CONTENDERS - 

  1. TONALIST'S SHAPE is the program pick and it registered a very impressive final stretch pacebias in her first race back on 28Sep19 at 5GP Msw 70k. There she got off slow 9 lengths back, but then made good shape in the inside at the top of the stretch, then split horses at the 16th pole and made good ground and ducked back inside for the big run pacebias at the wire. 

  2. CHEERMEISTER is the second program and had impressive early speed pacebias in her first start on 14Oct19 at 7GP Msw 48k when she placed but won on a DQ at 40 to 1 odds. She took the lead impressively right after the first turn, she still had the lead 1/4 mile to go,  then the winning horse drifted 7 lanes and almost whopped CHEERMEISTER. She then posted another impressive early speed performance on 29Feb20 at 9GP Herecomesthebride S. 150K G3 second race back. She reached out for her customary early lead at 9 to 1 odds. She continued to have her way 3 furlongs from home, was set down for the drive at the final stretch to lead by two, and was still there to win by one length.  

  3. UP IN SMOKE is the program's third pick and noted a mild final stretch pacebias her first time out on 8Feb20 at 3GP Msw 43k. from the outside 11 post at 30 to 1 odds. She was away in the top flight at the break and fell back 4 wide, then moved up to take the lead at the top of the stretch,  still had the lead with 1/8 mile to go and still wide,  and moved away to win by 4 lengths for the mild  final stretch pacebias. She then showed impressive early speed pacebias her second race back on 5Mar20 at 8GP Aoc 20k. She started good, was shuffled back, but then back pedaled to last, then found renewed energy 5 wide at the final stretch like a blitz for the stylish 3 length victory but only a minute final stretch pacebiias. In her last race on 5Apr20 at 10GP Aoc 25k she improved her final stretch pacebias and won as the favorite. She was shuffled way back again at the start hoping for the fast pace, got a move on 6 wide at the top of the stretch, and won going away again easily for the final stretch pacebias.
