The improving daughter of <em>Lope de Vega<\/em> comes here on the back of a gate to wire stakes victory in South Korea over seven furlongs. She recorded a 94 speed figure that day and will try to make all the running here and will be hard to catch as long as the extra furlong does not inconvenience her too much. Jockey H. Artack takes the ride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>#2  LIFEWITHOUTACARE  &#8211;  worldclass1  &#8211;  5\/1<\/strong><br>The<em> <\/em>daughter of <em>Gun Runner<\/em> steps out of allowance grade after a comfortable win over 8.5 furlongs last time out. <strong>Worldclass1&#8217;s<\/strong> filly found plenty down the straight to power past the leaders and she gets better the further she goes. She is on an upward curve and will be competitive in this grade, however there is a niggling suspicion that she already needs further than this mile. She will be staying on better than most at the finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>#3  GHOSTED BARBARA  &#8211;  nohopenags  &#8211;  2\/1JF<\/strong><br>The highest earner in the field is <strong>nohopenags&#8217;s<\/strong> <em>Ghostzapper<\/em> filly. She makes the expected step up into graded racing after securing her fifth career win and second stakes victory in the <strong><em>Paint Nana Dirt Juvenile Fillies<\/em><\/strong> stakes at the back end of last year. She beat her betting market rival PRINCESS SENSE by over three lengths that day and I see no reason for those placing to be reversed here. She stays this mile trip well and is looking to go three from three over eight furlongs in this race. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>#4  PRINCESS SENSE  &#8211;  bighef8  &#8211;  2\/1JF<\/strong><br><strong>Bighef8&#8217;s<\/strong> daughter of <em>Street Sense<\/em> is the other joint favourite here. Despite running her fastest race to date last time out, she was comfortably beaten by GHOSTED BARBARA. Prior to that she did finish a close fourth in the GI Happy Halloween contest in Vermont, so warrants her place in this line up. She is still improving with every start and expected to run a good race here without quite being good enough to take the first prize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>#5  ROCKS ALPHA  &#8211;  wyndaway14  &#8211;  11\/1<\/strong><br>The <em>Sogann<\/em> filly ships into Dubai after a disappointing run last time in the GIII <strong><em>Tyson Road<\/em><\/strong> in Florida. Despite being a winner in this grade when dictating the pace in <strong><em>The Barbara Memorial<\/em><\/strong> last June, <strong>wyndaway14<\/strong> will be hoping this first attempt on dirt sparks a revival after three poor performances since. Her stamina over this mile distance is also unknown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>#6  INNLING  &#8211;  dicko  &#8211;  20\/1<\/strong><br>Trianer <strong>dicko<\/strong> drops his filly in at the deep end here. It&#8217;s hard to argue a case for the daughter of <em>Inns of Court<\/em> making much of an impression here. Her only non-maiden win was a poorly contested sprint allowance and she has been soundly beaten in both attempts in stakes company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>#7  MISS AUSSY AUSSY  &#8211;  dochman8  &#8211;  7\/1<\/strong><br>Breaking from the widest gate will be <strong>dochman8&#8217;s<\/strong> <em>American Pharoah<\/em> filly. She is lightly raced and having only her fifth career start here. Her easy mile maiden victory was followed up with a nice win in allowance company last time over 8.25 furlongs. She is open to improvement and is worth a shot in graded company, especially in this smaller field. Jockey H. Harzheim takes to the saddle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SELECTIONS<\/strong> :<br><strong>#3 GHOSTED BARBARA &#8211; #1 VEGA LAKE BED &#8211; #4 PRINCESS SENSE<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SATURDAY 4 FEBRUARY 2023 &#8211; 2:05PM EST | DUBAI | 8 FURLONGS | FAST DIRT | $150,000Restricted to 3 Year<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":177305,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-60950","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-previews"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60950","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/177305"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=60950"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60950\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":60951,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60950\/revisions\/60951"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=60950"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=60950"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=60950"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
