WHOOPING JAY was held up over shorter in stakes company last time before failing to get a clear run when needed, but he seems likely to avoid that issue in this small field. Eastern Ocean was impressive over shorter last time and could go close if he has the stamina for this increased trip, leaving Media Blitz to scrap it out for third.

CLASSICAL ROMANCE has finished second on her last two starts over further, but she may be happier over this trip and has the form to suggest she can go close again here. She's So Shiny may have been found a race she can go close in and she could be the biggest danger, though Blonde Bombshell might be the surprise package if she gets away on level terms and learns to settle.
Half-sister to Blue Harbor, won 11 times between 7f and 1m 1f. Unplaced in both starts. Finished 3l behind Toeris when fourth of 7 at 17-2 on her latest outing at Santa Anita over 1m (good) last month despite pulling too hard early on. One for the shortlist with any further improvement.

Gold Dragon Queen looks capable of a big run here if she settles better on her third start and she may yet get involved in the finish. However, DARLING DONNAA has been found a great opportunity after placing in her first two starts and she does appear to be the one to beat, though Midnight's Girl may prove to be a big danger, if she goes on from her debut third.

Few can be ruled out with confidence in this contest and a narrow preference is for ROOKIE MISTAKE, who caught the eye when finishing fourth at Santa Anita on his return to action last month. Jamming Eddy and Midnight Special are others to consider.
A winner at 6f, but that win was over three years ago. Beaten 18l behind Combination at 11-1 when last of 10 on his latest outing at Gulfstream over 6f in January last year. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with Robert Hess Jr. Has some questions to answer.

A fascinating renewal that sees Astronaut and Acclimate take each other on again, and it should be close between the two, assuming a clear run for them both. The first-named came out on top the last time they met in the Breeders' Cup and could well do so again, but an in-form ROCKEMPEROR may trump them both. A Grade 1 winner in October, he could find this far easier pickings.

Successful at 5f and 6f, but last win was over three years ago. Finished 5l behind City Rage when fourth of 5 at 4-1 on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 6f (good) in March. Drops in class on his first start since March and recent trackwork times suggest he is primed for his return to action.

A winner at 9-2 at Golden Gate Fields over 5f on his latest outing last month, beating Arickaree by 3 1/2l. Out of maiden company now and ought to find this harder, but lightly raced and may have more to offer.

A winner at 6f. Finished 16l behind I Will Not when last of 5 at 16-1 on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 6f in February where Admirably came home third. Nine months off to overcome and well worth a market watch for signs of confidence.

He has won three times from 5f to 6f. Finished 4 1/2l behind Love My Jimmy when fourth of 9 at 9-5 on his latest outing here at Del Mar over 5f (good) in August. Won two better races in April and may and needs to get back to that level to challenge.

QUICK FINISH takes another drop in class for his first start since March and he clocked a sub-minute five furlongs in his latest trackwork, suggesting he is ready to do himself justice here. Admirably was a good second here in late August and a repeat of that run would see him on the scene where it matters, while Sunrise Journey could go well if bouncing back to his September form.
Placed in three of five starts. Finished 1l behind Madeira Wine when fourth of 9 at 16-10fav on her latest outing at Gulfstream over 1m (good) in August. Having her first run for a new stable today, previously with David Fawkes., but yet to show this is her best trip.

Suezaaana came home second four times last year, and may do better now after her first start in over a year here last month, while Witch Moon was second last time out despite taking a knock at the start. Both should get involved, though BOWL OF CHERRIES may have the edge, having hit a top-three spot in five of her last six starts.
