3rd (4)  Whiskyginandbrandy |  | | | | 2 | Tiago Pereira | S Knapp | Full brother to Sauls Call, won five times at 4f and 5f. Other debutants are more appealing on paper. | ||
(5)  Far Over Loaded | | | | | 2 | Armando Ayuso | Felix Rondan | Placed twice in three starts. Finished 17l behind Drop Um when fourth of 8 at 30-1 on his latest outing at Pleasanton over 5f earlier this month. These calmer waters should enable an improved bid. | ||
4th (9)  Three Georges | | | | | 2 | Kent Desormeaux | Ian Kruljac | Dam won at 1m. A watching brief is advised. | ||
(1)  Betheguynotthatguy | | | | | 2 | Reylu Gutierrez | Peter Miller | Half-brother to Chicknfingerfriday, won twice at 1m. A market check is advised on debut. | ||
(7)  Whiskeyinateacup | | | | | 2 | Jeremy Laprida | S Knapp | Dam won six times at 5f. Placed once in two starts. Beaten 2 3/4l by Last Call Zondlo when second of 5 at 9-2 on his latest outing at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 5f last month. Each-way player. | ||
(10)  Far Western | | | | | 2 | Abel Cedillo | Ryan Hanson | Half-brother to Half Throttle, won twice at 5f. Easier opportunities await. | ||
1st (3)  Shea Brennan | | | | | 2 | Kyle Frey | Philip D Amato | Half-brother to Carrie's Success, won 12 times at 5f and 6f. Newcomers from this yard warrant close inspection. | ||
2nd (2)  Nap | | | | | 2 | Mario Gutierrez | Antonio Garcia | Half-brother to Chasing Fame, won seven times between 4f and 6f. Placed once in two starts. Third of 8 behind Case Hit beaten 2 1/2l at 20-1 on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 5f last month. Leading claims. | ||
(6)  Gozer | | | | | 2 | Juan Hernandez | Peter Miller | Dam a lightly raced maiden. Market support could prove significant on this opening bid. | ||
(8)  Sir Tom | | | | | 2 | Edwin Maldonado | Doug O'Neill | Half-brother to Envisioned, won twice at 4f. Recent workouts suggest that he isn't devoid of ability. | ||
(11)  Bro Bro | | | | | 2 | Mario Gutierrez | Doug O'Neill | Half-brother to Dichotomy, won nine times between 5f and 1m. Reserve. |
NAP clocked a strong speed figure when finishing third at Santa Anita last month a similar performance on his Del Mar debut may prove sufficient. Far Over Loaded looks next best, although market support for newcomer Shea Brennan would be interesting.

RUNNING SPARTAN showed plenty of ability to finish a close-up third on his debut earlier in the month and, with normal progression, he could get off the mark. Osage Creek and A Day To Remember could also have a say.

Finished 16l behind Uncle Reg when fifth of 7 at 19-5 on his latest outing at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 6f earlier this month.

2nd (10)  Seven Wonders | | | | | 5 | Antonio Fresu | P Eurton | A winner at 1m on good ground. Third of 7 behind El Potente beaten on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 1m (good) last month. It would be no surprise to see him feature. | ||

RIMPROTECTOR produced a fine effort to finish third at Santa Anita last month and that looks like the best form on offer in this contest. One Of These Days and City Exile head the dangers.

(9)  Made To Move | | | | | 3 | Armando Aguilar | Karen Headley | Dam a lightly raced maiden. Well beaten at 39-1 behind Ryder's Candy when last of 6 on her racecourse debut at Santa Anita over 5f in April. One to avoid. | ||

4th (2)  Native Charmer | | | | | 2 | Kazushi Kimura | Tim Yakteen | $75,000 Practical Joke half-sister to Hillstone Martini, won four times at 4f and 5f. Worthy of a market watch ahead of her debut. | ||
1st (1)  Proud Starlet | | | | | 2 | Antonio Fresu | Tim Yakteen | $220,000 Mendelssohn filly, dam won at 6f. Working well enough to suggest a bold display despite her inexperience. | ||
3rd (6)  Thought Process | | | | | 2 | Mike Smith | Philip D Amato | $57,000 Collected filly, dam won three times at 1m and 1m 4f. A repeat of her July work would make her a major contender. | ||
2nd (4)  Usha | | | | | 2 | Juan Hernandez | Bob Baffert | $600,000 Tiz The Law half-sister to Sandy Sweet Tooth, won at 6f. Another whose morning work suggests she can have a say. | ||
(3)  McKechnie | | | | | 2 | Hector Berrios | R Mandella | Unraced Into Mischief filly, dam won three times between 6f and 1m. Exceptional morning work suggests she could be above a average. | ||
(5)  Lady Of Light | | | | | 2 | Reylu Gutierrez | Todd Fincher | $30,000 City Of Light half-sister to Frost Free, won three times at 5f and 6f. Her stable could be in better form but one to watch for future contests. | ||
(7)  What About Q | | | | | 2 | Edwin Maldonado | Doug O'Neill | Half-sister to Lord Jaxston, won four times between 6f and 1m. Placed once in two starts. Third of 9 behind A. Z. Wildcat beaten 4 1/2l at 11-5 on her latest outing at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 5f earlier this month. The only runner with any experience, but up against some decent newcomers who may prove too much for her. |
Mckechnie is a daughter of Into Mischief who fits the bill and she may be the biggest rival to THOUGHT PROCESS. Although bred to be better over further, she has been catching the eye in the mornings and may make a winning debut. Usha and Proud Starlet are others to consider.

3rd (1)  Eight Clap | | | | | 3 | Welfin Orantes | Simon Hobson | Successful at 5f and 6f. Finished 6l behind Instinct D' Oro when last of 4 at 13-5 on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 5f last month. Stepped up in trip but held by the winner on that form and he has plenty to find. | ||
4th (5)  Always On Cay | | | | | 3 | Mike Smith | Robert Hess | A winner at 6f. Finished 7l behind Island Cruiser when last of 6 at 20-1 on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 6f (good) in May. Dropped in class which may see a bolder showing. | ||
2nd (6)  Mission Beach | | | | | 3 | Antonio Fresu | J Sweezey | Successful twice at 6f. Finished 6l behind Pure Force when fifth of 7 at 14-1 on his latest outing at Churchill Downs over 7f last month. Campaigned without success in far better races and this may be more his level. | ||
1st (4)  Heart Headed | | | | | 3 | Juan Hernandez | John Sadler | Successful at 6f and 7f. Finished 2l behind Nesso's Lastharrah when fourth of 8 at 9-2 on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 6f (good) last month. His form seems to be tailing off recently but a place may beckon. | ||
(2)  Instinct D' Oro | | | | | 3 | Tiago Pereira | Sergio Morfin | Successful at 5f and 6f. A winner at 11-2 at Santa Anita over 5f on his latest outing last month, beating Beer Money by 2l. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with Hector Palma and there is every chance he will improve again for the step up in trip. | ||
(3)  Come Out Fighting | | | | | 3 | Kazushi Kimura | Bill McLean | Successful twice at 1m. Finished 8l behind Where It's At when last of 4 at 3-1 on his latest outing at Golden Gate Fields over 1m (good) in May. Stays further than this and expected to be staying on late. |
Many of these are dropping in class looking to get back to form, with Mission Beach and Always On Cay obvious examples, but they may have to give way to the improving INSTINCT D' ORO. The winner of two of his three starts, he may well land the hat-trick if staying the distance.

1st (9)  Without Borders | | | | | 3 | Diego Herrera | Peter Miller | Third of 7 behind Uncle Reg beaten 4l at 18-1 on his latest outing at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 6f earlier this month. Held by runner-up Coach Cronin on that form and 2lb worse off with that rival here. | ||
3rd (7)  Phosphorescence | | | | | 4 | Umberto Rispoli | Michael McCarthy | A winner at 1m on good ground. Finished 2 3/4l behind Escape Route when last of 5 at 14-1 on his latest outing at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 5f in December last year. Possibly best watched on his comeback run. | ||
2nd (2)  Queen's Code | | | | | 7 | Geovanni Franco | Carla Gaines | A winner at 6f on good ground. Beaten 3/4l by Logon To Win when second of 6 at evens fav on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 6f (good) last month. He is wearing blinkers for the first time and if they bring any improvement, he could be a major player. | ||
(3)  Journey D' Oro | | | | | 3 | Jeremy Laprida | Steven Miyadi | Dam won three times at 6f. Won on his debut when 4-5fav at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 5f last month, beating Mischievous Dylan by 8l. Out of claiming company here, but he could hardly have been any more impressive. | ||
(4)  Coach Cronin | | | | | 4 | Armando Ayuso | Kelly Bainum | A winner at 6f on the all-weather. Beaten 1 1/2l by Uncle Reg when second of 7 at 4-1 on his latest outing at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 6f earlier this month. A decent sort but the drop to five furlongs may count against him. | ||
(5)  Defensor Fortis | | | | | 4 | Reylu Gutierrez | Francisco Rodriguez | A winner at 5-2 at Golden Gate Fields over 6f on his latest outing last month, beating Apple Warrior by 4 1/2l. Pacey enough to suggest he will take to this reduced trip. | ||
(6)  Pass The Baton | | | | | 4 | Antonio Fresu | Bill McLean | A winner at 1m on the all-weather. Finished 7l behind No Secret when fifth of 6 at 13-5 on his latest outing at Golden Gate Fields over 1m in March. Determined sort, but he may be outpaced early on over this much reduced trip. | ||
(8)  Dance Man | | | | | 3 | Edwin Maldonado | Leonard Powell | A winner at 4-1 at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 6f on his latest outing earlier this month, beating Last Call Paul by 1 1/2l. One to consider for the places at least. |
In a tricky race it may pay to side with the improving maiden winners who hopefully have more to offer. Defensor Fortis and Dance Man fit the criteria but preference is for the once-raced JOURNEY D' ORO. Well-backed and sent off odds-on in June, he strolled home by eight lengths and thoroughly deserves the step up in class.

4th (6)  Sweet Layla Rae | | | | | 4 | Welfin Orantes | Simon Hobson | Successful at 5f and 6f. Finished 4 1/2l behind Illhaveanotherkiss when sixth of 9 at 55-1 on her latest outing at Santa Anita over 1m (good) last month. Will find this easier. | ||
1st (7)  Roman Empress | | | | | 5 | Kyle Frey | Anthony Saavedra | She has won four times from 6f to 1m. Third of 9 behind Just A Little Luck beaten 4 1/2l at 13-1 on her latest outing at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 6f earlier this month. Should go well. | ||

(1)  Morning Addiction | | | | | 7 | Edwin Maldonado | Bill McLean | Has won eight races from 5f to 1m. Finished 5l behind Pretty Thirsty when fifth of 6 at 12-5 on her latest outing at Golden Gate Fields over 5f in May. Others might have her measure. | ||
(3)  Keep Your Coil | | | | | 6 | Edgar Payeras | Genaro Vallejo | Winner of six races from 4f to 6f. A winner at 9-2 at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 5f on her latest outing earlier this month, beating Tapit Doux by 2 1/2l. One to be interested in. | ||
(5)  Sugar Sugar | | | | | 5 | Cesar Ortega | Sergio Morfin | She has won four times from 4f to 6f. A winner at 5-1 at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 5f on her latest outing last month, beating Trouble N Paradise by 1/2l. Dangerous to dismiss. | ||
(8)  Dancing Dana | | | | | 6 | Armando Ayuso | Craig Lewis | She has won four times from 5f to 6f. Won on her latest outing when 2-5fav at Santa Anita over 6f last month, beating Tapit Doux by 1 3/4l. In fine form and that could continue. | ||
(9)  Why Behave | | | | | 5 | Diego Herrera | George Papaprodromou | She has won four times from 5f to 1m. Finished 9l behind Renegade Princess when fourth of 9 at 19-2 on her latest outing at Del Mar over 1m in September last year. Having her first run for a new stable today, previously with Kristin Mulhall. Could grab a place. |
DANCING DANA successfully completed a double when she accounted for her nearest rival by just under two lengths at Santa Anita last time and she can go in again. Sweet Layla Rae and Keep Your Coil can follow her home.

CARDINAL SPIRIT showed a fair amount of ability when he finished fourth on his debut at Santa Anita last month and, with any amount of improvement to come, he gets the vote. Newcomers Legitimate and Sabertooth need to be monitored in the market.

(1)  Cloudy Women | | | | | 2 | Edwin Maldonado | P Eurton | Half-sister to Shelly The Rocket, won four times at 5f. A market check is advised. | ||
(2)  Empress Lorrayne | | | | | 2 | Armando Ayuso | Tim Yakteen | Half-sister to Devoted To You, won three times at 6f and 1m. Others appeal more. | ||
(3)  Lucky Nea | | | | | 2 | Santiago Gonzalez | George Lopez | Full sister to He's Just Lucky, won at 6f. Unplaced in both starts. Beaten 19l behind A. Z. Wildcat at 66-1 when eighth of 9 on her latest outing at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 5f earlier this month. This asks for a lot more. | ||
(4)  Walk'n The Beach | | | | | 2 | Kyle Frey | Bill McLean | Half-sister to Quadra Island, won twice at 1m and 1m 2f. Any market support should not be ignored. | ||
(5)  Rapida | | | | | 2 | Emily Ellingwood | Ryan Hanson | Half-sister to Holy Saint, won 12 times at 6f. Finished 11l behind A. Z. Wildcat when fifth of 9 at 39-1 on her racecourse debut at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 5f earlier this month. Could easily take a step forward. | ||

(7)  She's My Flame | | | | | 2 | Tiago Pereira | S Knapp | Placed once in three starts. Finished 12l behind A. Z. Wildcat when sixth of 9 at 17-2 on her latest outing at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 5f earlier this month. One to take seriously. | ||
(8)  Pretty Cecy | | | | | 2 | Ricardo Gonzalez | Victor Garcia | Dam a lightly raced maiden. Well beaten at 22-1 behind Nooni when last of 5 on her racecourse debut at Santa Anita over 5f last month. She will need to find significant improvement. | ||

SHE'S MY FLAME was well beaten into sixth last time, but a reproduction of her runner-up effort two starts ago would make her the one to beat. Newcomers Empress Lorrayne and Walk'n The Beach are others to watch out for.
