ROCKET DANCER was suited by the way the race developed when scoring at Beverly last month but remains of interest from a handicapping perspective having been successful off a 7 lb higher mark in 2021. Motarajel was a length second behind the selection that day and may emerge as the biggest threat again on 2 lb better term. The in-form Marie Paradis is another to consider.
