Filly posted a good 4-furlong work in :48 3/5 recently and can be forwardly placed from the start with Rodriguez remaining aboard.

Dark bay has a record of 14-4-1-3 on this oval and trainer Lake wins with 19% of his runners that won last time out. 4-year-old should find a solid pace to close into with Pennington retaining the mount.
