first question in this one - can Potra Clasica run a \'4\' here? gets in at 115 lbs, gets one of the best front running jocks in the biz, and doesn\'t appear to be facing a lot of pace pressure. second question - is a \'4\' at the weights with no ground loss good enough? odds will be long (longer than ml).

then you have J\'ray - ready to run big? \'10\' top as a two year old, \'5.25\' top last year (exploding late at a slightly shorter distance). last race was too short. ready for a \'3-4\' here? is a \'3-4\' good enough at 119 lbs, from post 9? low odds.

then you have Nottawasago - nice fig last, great post, top jock, and 114 lbs. the \'3.75\' was an isolated top though. bounce?

then you have Naissance Royale - runs in the \'3-4\' range, saves the ground, but 119 lbs ... strong, but odds will be low.

finally, Cursora - 114 lbs, but looking at possible ground loss. very tough call.


not sure yet.

tough call is right  ...  the 1st thing in my view  that comes to mind is - \"if\" 2nd off lay off nottawasaga don\'t bounce , she\'d be awwefully tough to beat      ...
