The Queen of Victoria Stakes Grade III <\/P> Two miles <\/P> Good Turf <\/P> $125,000 <\/P> Fillies and mares, 4 years old and up<\/P> Race ID:\u00a0 <\/SPAN>3462.5316<\/P> 1 116749

matter to her.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She won a turf two-mile stakes in November, and ran respectably in a Grade 1 marathon on dirt last out.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>The Scenic product won\u2019t let the field get away from her, and she is one to consider at longer odds.<\/P> \u00a0\u00a0 <\/SPAN><\/P> 2 94198 MAGICAL MIA(IRE)<\/B>\u00a0 <\/SPAN>boots\u00a0 <\/SPAN>D Evans\u00a0 <\/SPAN>8\/5\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/SPAN><\/P> The Breeders Bowl Turf Distaff winner sandwiched that victory with two others in two-mile graded turf stakes.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>It seems there\u2019s nothing she can\u2019t do now, and the Eclipse candidate, newly six, gets the top jockey.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Evans likely has the choice to move this <\/SPAN>\u00a0<\/P> 3 111663 NERF HERDER<\/B>\u00a0 <\/SPAN>fatflab\u00a0 <\/SPAN> A Macho Uno 5-year-old, she was second to MAGICAL MIA(IRE)<\/B> in the Breeders Bowl, but did beat that one back in August in the Brisbane Distaff.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Most of her recent races have been shorter, but she did win the Miss Thing back in May at this distance.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She only earned an 84 in that one, however, so there is some risk that this pace-chasing miss may wear down late.<\/P> 4 30951

year in two-mile turfers.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She has pace pressers to her inside and closers to her outside, so if she moves too late, she could be boxed in at the stretch.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>The War Chant mare is not the fastest here, but when she does unleash a monster rally, she wins by daylight.<\/P> \u00a0 <\/SPAN><\/P> 5 98805 Things have not gone that well for this Pikepass 5-year-old since her victory in the Grade 2 Sour Kraut Cup back in June.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She has three thirds in stakes in that time period, but they were all non-threatening thirds, including in the two-mile One for Momma last out.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She does not have a win at the distance and may be best kept at the bottom of your exotic wagers.<\/P> \u00a0 <\/SPAN><\/P> 6 141703 HOTSTEPPER(KY)<\/B>\u00a0 <\/SPAN>cnl\u00a0 <\/SPAN>J Kohlmorgen\u00a0 <\/SPAN>12\/1\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/SPAN><\/P> Now four, this Fusaichi Pegasus filly moves up to graded competition carrying a four-race win streak, the last two at this track.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>In each of those wins, she has rallied from far back to blow past them all with ease.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Her last, the Live Fish five weeks ago, was her first stakes try and first at this marathon distance.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>The fact that she passed the test with flying colors means she should be the longshot hunter\u2019s choice in this one: an improving horse with no known ceiling.<\/P> 7 120580 OROWELL(KY)<\/B>\u00a0 <\/SPAN>sam\u00a0 <\/SPAN>A Snappa\u00a0 <\/SPAN>4\/1\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/SPAN><\/P> The Medaglia D\u2019Oro product makes the turf-to-dirt move after a third in the Minnesota Distaff Stakes last out.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>That placing followed three straight stakes wins in long dirt affairs.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She could be as many as fifteen lengths back at the second call, and is another who will look to skunk them all from that disadvantage.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Seeing as her only turf try earned her a 71 (although that was long ago, as a 2-year-old), she looks like an overlay at 4\/1.<\/P> Turf Speed Inside, Closers
