Full brother to Chasing Yesterday, won five times between 5f and 1m including a Grade 1 race. Won on his only outing when 1-5fav at Santa Anita over 7f in March, beating Barraza by 4 1/2l with ease. Very impressive on that occasion and may be the one to beat here as well.

He has won three times from 5f to 6f. Third of 6 behind Silver Moon Road beaten 1/2l at 13-10fav on his latest outing at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 6f in September. Decent sort but others may well improve past him here.

A winner at 10-1 at Santa Anita over 5f on his latest outing in October last year, beating Nasreddine by 5l. Lively front runner but this appears to be a big ask after over a year off the track.

He has won three times from 5f to 6f. Finished 2 1/2l behind I'll Stand Taller when fifth of 12 at 28-1 on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 6f (good) last month. Needs to step up on that to take a hand in this company.

Silver Moon Road is looking for his hat-trick here and seems likely to go close as the in-form option, but trainer Bob Baffert appears to hold all the aces. TRIPLE TAP was very impressive when winning at Santa Anita on debut and he may be able to step up to take this as well. His other runner, Sumo, clocked a good time when winning at Los Alamitos and could have more to offer.
A winner at 16-10 at Golden Gate Fields over 1m (good) on his latest outing last month, beating Cardiff Crack by 5l. Upped in class but no reason to think he cannot continue on an upward curve.

Half-brother to Ea, won eight times between 1m and 2m. Unplaced in both starts. Beaten 6l behind Mackinnon at 40-1 when seventh of 10 on his latest outing in the Listed Zuma Beach Stakes at Santa Anita over 1m (good) last month. Still a maiden and easy to look elsewhere.

Degree Of Risk is interesting in first-time blinkers and ought to appreciate the drop in class after his third in the Summer Stakes. Optimising may have more to come after only two starts and could run in to a place, but READY TO PURRFORM has done nothing wrong in winning both starts, and he may keep his unbeaten record here.
Placed once in four starts. Finished 12l behind Big Novel when fifth of 7 at 15-2 on her latest outing at Santa Anita over 6f last month. Held by Big Novel, Bold Choice, At The Spa, and Drizella on recent form and is easily ignored.

Big Novel went clear late on over a furlong shorter at Santa Anita and may be the best suited by the extended trip now. Bold Choice followed her home that day and could do so again if she can get away on level terms, though AT THE SPA may beat them both. She may bounce back here after getting stressed before the start last time when looking to land her four-timer.

This could turn into a speed duel between the Wesley Ward-trained stablemates, Twilight Gleaming and AVERLY JANE, with preference for the latter, who is unbeaten through four starts and can take this rise in grade in her stride. From the raiding party, the speedy Armor leads the way having been slightly unlucky in the Group 1 Middle Park last time out. Hierarchy is not out of things either.

Echo Zulu has already shown herself to be a superstar in the making with a pair of Grade 1 wins in the Spinaway at Saratoga and the Frizette at Belmont.

Cachet finished behind Hello You in the Rockfel at Newmarket, but produced a much better display when finishing ahead of Mise En Scene when third in the Fillies' Mile.
