COMMENTS: CHATTALOT improved a lot in the early part of his last start, expecting more carry through here. COOL PAPA G should take a step ahead in his second start after a four-month break. BARBER ROAD won his last two and they were not close. TEJANO TWIST is likely to be the big favorite but missed the board in both of his Churchill starts.

COMMENTS: SANDSTONE won her last two by at least 9 lengths. YUUGIRI is trying a route for the second time, a 37% hit rate for trainer Rudolphe Brisset. FAMED has been the heavy favorite in both of her starts, winning her last by 7 3/4 lengths. SECRET OATH could be a live longshot, she ran well in her last and has trained even better since.

COMMENTS: HOWLING TIME is undefeated in two, both at Churchill with some good works at the Louisville track since. TIZ THE BOMB ran the top, last race speed figure on turf, needs to do it on dirt now. BEN DIESEL won his debut with strong effort and could move forward here. WHITE ABARRIO ran well in two at Gulfstream, which usually translates well to Churchill.

COMMENTS: MARISSAS LADY won her debut with the highest, last race speed figure, usually the only way to take a debut winner in stakes company. SWEET DANI GIRL is undefeated in two stalking wins. KNOWING GLANCE won her last two and could be better in her third start off the bench. VERYLITTLECENTS should be close to the front all the way around the track, holding on late is the issue.
