Dam unraced. Unplaced in both starts. Finished 5l behind Causeway's Girl when fourth of 7 at 14-1 on her latest outing at Golden Gate Fields over 5f last month. Having her first run for a new stable today, previously with Carla Gaines. That latest effort was not without promise.

With no proven stayers in this field, there are question marks hanging over all the runners. ARIES ran well for second last time, with Shine On Me well behind, and she looks the one to be on providing she sees out this trip. Fernet Me Not has at least raced over this far, though a bigger danger could by Quinnie, who ran well enough last time.
A winner at 5f. Finished 6l behind Generally Lucky when fifth of 7 at 13-1 on her latest outing at Golden Gate Fields over 5f last month. Struggled in that better grade latest, but gets in light here.

Placed once in three starts. Third of 5 behind Gracioso beaten 4 1/2l at 16-10 on his latest outing at Golden Gate Fields over 5f last month. Remains a maiden, but has been going well of late.

Dam a lightly raced maiden. A winner at 3-1 at Golden Gate Fields over 5f on his latest outing last month, beating Could Be The One by 3l. That was an excellent debut and any improvement could make him tough to beat.

This looks HOLY YODELER's easiest chance since winning here on debut, having contested stakes races and a far more valuable claimer since. Down in grade, he can get the better of debut winner Gracioso and fellow class dropper Chiefs Lil Pearl.
A winner at 6f. Finished 10l behind Paynes Prairie when sixth of 9 at 30-1 on his latest outing at Fresno over 6f earlier this month. Down in grade here, so could be a factor.

MARCHTOTHEMUSIC won well over track and trip two starts ago and though he failed to follow that up at Fresno last time, this doesn't look as good a race. Irish Jack made all to score latest and has claims, while River Of Champagne is one of many likely to be vying for the early lead.
Has won nine races from 5f to 6f. Third of 5 behind Motutapu beaten 3l at 11-5 on her latest outing at Oak Tree At Pleasanton over 6f last month. Well worth considering on current form.

She has won three times from 5f to 6f. A winner at 33-10 at Oak Tree At Pleasanton over 6f on her latest outing last month, beating Cinzia by 1 1/2l. On a hat-trick and well worth a second glance.

Foxy Lover has been running well of late, but did finish behind Whyugottabesomean when they met in August. The latter has not really gone on from that win, though, so the class-dropping SKY FOREVER could be worth siding with after running respectably in much more valuable contests of late.
A winner at 1m. Finished 12l behind Dothraki Warrior when sixth of 8 at 7-1 on his latest outing at Presque Isle Downs over 1m last month. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with Jed Steffee. Could be given a chance down in this basement grade.

Really low grade stuff here, so perhaps ASSETS INCLUDED is worth siding with as he comes into this on the back of a wide-margin victory at Emerald Downs. Garava and Top Drawer drop slightly in grade and look the biggest dangers.
Placed in three of 13 starts. Beaten 13l behind Reno Johnny at 14-5 when seventh of 9 on his latest outing at Golden Gate Fields over 1m (good) in August. On a long losing streak, but has run well enough in the past to suggest he can break that run.

EL ALTENO had Pepper Sings over 20 lengths behind when second last time and a similar performance could be enough to see him go one better. Despite a 13-race losing run, Cedar Rapids has shown some promise in recent outings and looks the main danger.
He has won four times at 5f. Finished 2l behind Synnin when fourth of 7 at 11-2 on his latest outing at Golden Gate Fields over 5f (good) last month. Doesn't have too many rivals for the lead here, so could get clear and stay there.

Winner of six races at 1m. Beaten 3/4l by Trelawny when second of 8 at 4-1 on his latest outing at Emerald Downs over 6f in July. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with Kenneth Elison. Ran on well last time, but this is tougher.

Spot N The Line and Academic Code finished with a real flourish to land their respective last starts, but with very little likely to take on GOOD STUFF for the early lead here, Ari Herbertson's gelding could set the race to suit himself.
A winner at 1m on good ground. Finished 3l behind Crimson Cloud when fifth of 6 at 11-1 on her latest outing at Oak Tree At Pleasanton over 1m in July. Could be capable of getting involved.

ENCHANTED JASMINE ran a cracker to miss out by half a length in a more valuable contest here last time and a similar effort could suffice. Flika was just over two lengths behind the selection latest so has to be considered a danger, while Having Fun appears progressive and also makes the shortlist.
