Shahama might be the best horse in this race but Nostalgic is prime for this race.  

Even in the mud?

Especially when running on beauty packs.

Should be a wet one... Mud speed stats say...

1) Venti Valentine w/ 88

2) Kathleen O w/ 84

3) Secret Oath w/ 77

I like a tri/box of Secret Oath/ Venti Valentine/ Nest in this one!

I think Nest is the winner, but my longshot picks are Nostalgic and Yuugiri.

I really like Shahama.

Playing her in the Double 

I like Shahama as well if the track is dry. I don't know about the wet track that is expected.

Checkout the replays of Shahama's four races. In her second race the track was wet. I really cannot tell how much water was on the track but the ground was wet.

I like Hidden Connection....a lot, and at a price.

I think she moves up in the slop as well.....
