China<\/STRONG>–\u00a0\u00a0 Only four older fillies and mares go in this week’s Chian feature:\u00a0\u00a0 the $60,000 Star Tracing Cha<\/EM>llenge.\u00a0\u00a0 The group’s led by shall’s graded-placed Chickadee<\/STRONG>, a lifetime earner of over $300,000. <\/FONT><\/DIV>

Chickadee (1\/5)\u00a0drops down in class from the graded level.\u00a0\u00a0 The 5YO daughter of AP Indy rallied to finish a decent third in the Jake’s L.D. Challenge(G3) <\/EM>over\u00a0a mile in early February.\u00a0 The mare was an also-ran afterwards when asked to stretch out to nine furlongs in the historically difficult Original Margarita Inv.(G1)<\/EM>.\u00a0\u00a0 Six weeks rest then for Chickadee and\u00a0top jockey Bennie Ball (21%) eyes a rallying trip for the comeback mare.\u00a0 She only makes her 24th lifetime start and\u00a0has earned just as much money in sprints as in short\u00a0routes.\u00a0 Great spot for Chickadee to romp over this short field.\u00a0 <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
In post postion # 2, Henryseego’s Famous Blue(IRE)<\/STRONG> (9\/1) breaks\u00a0just outside of\u00a0rail-bound Chickadee.\u00a0 <\/FONT>\u00a0A 4YO daughter of Singspiel(IRE), Famous Blue(IRE) is pretty much in this for a piece of the pie only.\u00a0 She fares in ALW company with 80 SP#s and\u00a0won’t be much of a threat.\u00a0 Expect the filly to sit behind the pacesetters, hoping to get a place or show share.<\/FONT><\/DIV>
<\/FONT>\u00a0<\/DIV>
Super28 sends out Cajun Queen<\/STRONG>, the longest shot on board at 15\/1.\u00a0 The lightly raced Sadler’s Wells royal bred comes off her ALW NW2L victory LTO.\u00a0 Saturday will be just her 9th career start.\u00a0\u00a0 The 4YO filly’s versatile on or off the pace, but her stalker-style tactics in her last might see her trailing the field early on.\u00a0 By all means seems rushed here, but, hey, this is a pretty clunky field.\u00a0 Probably in the running for place spot.\u00a0 <\/FONT><\/DIV>
<\/FONT>\u00a0<\/DIV>
If Chickadee hasn’t recovered from her recent form, then pencil in\u00a0Ilina Hollandia<\/STRONG> (9\/5)\u00a0as the race’s winner.\u00a0 Hollandia3 got this speedster Two Punch mare to fire big LTO in the ol’ turf-to-dirt switcheroo.\u00a0 The 5YO found the main track return much to her liking, zipping through 7.5f with a 101 SP#.\u00a0 It was a time-restricted ALW though and this is a class test for her.\u00a0 <\/FONT><\/DIV>

<\/FONT>\u00a0<\/DIV>
The favorite Chickadee should bag this one barring injury.\u00a0 Pacesetter Ilina Hollandia outlasts green Cajun Queen’s late rally.\u00a0 Famous Blue(IRE) trots home with a nice 4th place cheque.\u00a0 <\/FONT><\/DIV>
