Odds of $28.00 and lacklustre showing when 10th last run at this venue but facing a rise in trip. Likely to settle back in the field. Gets a favourable draw. Entitled to be a big price.

Amongst the placegetters when 3rd last start around here and fitter for debut run. Racing over a longer distance. Will try to take advantage of the draw. Expect a forward showing.

Nice run when 3rd last run at the track and having second race start. Jockey Antonio Fresu and trainer Tim Yakteen are consistently competitive together. Going over extra ground. Definitely worth considering.

Ran 2nd last start here and having second race start. Jockey Joel Rosario is currently in strong form for this stable. Racing over more ground. Serious contender.

Had a break from racing and returns to competition. Hit the line well when 3rd last time at Santa Anita and facing an increased distance. Could be in the mix.

Started $28.00 and ran 6th last start here but going over extra ground. Has plenty of early speed. Prefer in an easier race.

Started at $6.50 and unsatisfactory performance when 8th last run here but was a debutant last start. Rising in trip. This will pose a challenge.

Nyquist 2yo on debut for trainer Michael W Mccarthy. Umberto Rispoli rates highly steering. Respect the betting.
