Odds of $7.50 and made ground when closing off to finish 5th last start at Los Alamitos Th and drawn nicely. Should be swooping on the field late. Can't leave out of your calculations.

Right up there last start at Del Mar. Change in trainer. Jockey Juan J Hernandez is highly regarded. Has run into the money 2 from 2 attempts this campaign. Goes well and could be a value opportunity.

Started at $12.00 and moved through the field into 4th last run at Los Alamitos Th and having second race start. Might have to make up considerable ground. Entitled to be a big price.

Jumped at $6.00 and didn't find the line when 6th last start at Los Alamitos Th. Should jump out and bowl along. Won't find this easy.
