3/1

Comment: Beaten 9l into seventh in a claimer three weeks ago; appears to be on the upgrade judged on two most recent runs; may find this lower level more suitable (in for $10k); difficult to oppose if duplicating the form of his most recent win and was successful two starts back.

5/2

Comment: Victories in mixed races to his name; gave it a good shot when a close fourth at Los Alamitos 18 days ago in an allowance race (mixed); useful in this grade; has a chance if replicating the best of his form.

Leyas Candy

Age/Wt: 6/8-8 F: 563685

3/1

Comment: Has scored over C&D; far from disgraced (beaten just under 4l) in a claimer when back to this trip five weeks ago (had two of these rivals behind); tag has been dropped to $8k; one to take seriously as latest run was an encouraging one and peak figure in the past year is the best in the field.

Instinct D' Oro

Age/Wt: 4/8-5 F: 355132

7/2

Comment: Winner in mixed company; running consistently and resume shows that he is a proven winner (seeking a seventh career win); went close when runner-up 26 days ago at Los Alamitos, finished ahead of My Bucket List in a claimer (mixed); covers an extra 1f here.

7/1

Comment: Managed three wins in his last five outings; not beaten too far when sixth of 12 in a claimer (had Stan From Malibu and Morello behind) three weeks ago; likely player if enjoying better luck than last time and lower claiming tag suggests he may have less on his plate here.

Morello

Age/Wt: 6/8-8 F: 8-74690

8/1

Comment: Finished 11th of 12 three weeks ago (bumped at the start) in a claimer; resume shows that he is a proven winner (seeking a sixth career win) and some way off his best these days; should be on the premises as sights are lowered a bit reflected by lower claiming tag and has been on the scene in the recent past.

16/1

Comment: Last of five over 4½f at Los Alamitos (allowance race (mixed)) 19 days ago when just behind Evenerevenworse; successful four times from 19 career runs; useful partnership with this jockey, back together here; needs to be respected as likely to benefit from return to this trip.

25/1

Comment: Has managed six wins from 21 career runs; split Leyas Candy and Haywood five weeks ago when beaten 7l in sixth in a claimer; claiming tag drops to $8k (from $16k); should not be far away.

Comment: Normally pretty consistent; posted respectable effort when beaten just under 2l over 4½f at Los Alamitos (allowance race (mixed)) 19 days ago on debut for this trainer; he looks up against it as now looks to be past his prime.

Stan From Malibu

Age/Wt: 5/8-6 F: 796158

Comment: Out of the frame (beaten 7l in eighth) in a claimer three weeks ago; now down in class (in for $7k from $10k); a once useful performer but not at that level anymore and not hard to turn elsewhere.

Age/Wt: 2/8-10

Comment: Bred to get better as she gets older; sire gets turf winners; trainer does well here with debutants; easy to see her making an impression as some good aspects to her profile and the current yard form is another tick.
