Last race: March 22, 2nd
Finish: 4th by 6
Beyer: 53
Odds-on in Cal-bred allowance for 3-year-old fillies, she stumbled and was away dead last, inside trip in fourth, steadied three-eighths, battled into lane, tired. Horrible trip, toss race.
BERT’S PROSPECT
Trainer: Sean McCarthy
Last race: March 22, 5th
Finish: 3rd by 1 1/4
Beyer: 71
Older maiden Cal-bred got stuck inside in turf mile, waited for room that never materialized while two pacesetters kept running. Bert’s Prospect fits in similar Cal-bred maiden turf mile.

LEYAS CANDY
Trainer: Mark Glatt
Last race: March 23, 5th
Finish: 6th by 4 1/2
Beyer: 69
Beaten favorite four straight, but did have an excuse. Broke slow in turf sprint, rushed inside, dueled into lane, weakened. Usually overbet, but fits in Cal-bred allowance turf sprint.
CLOVISCONNECTION
Trainer: Blaine Wright
Last race: March 24, 7th
Finish: 3rd by 1 1/4
Beyer: 87
Northern California comeback shipper set pace in Cal-bred turf sprint stakes, battled to deep stretch, worn down, actually galloped out in front of the field in an excellent comeback.
