AGRIGENTO came from well off the pace to take third over 6f here on debut and this longer trip could prove crucial to bringing about the requisite improvement. Blue Star edged out Attenzione for second here last time and they look the main dangers.

Red Panty Night struggled in a better race here last time but could be better for the class drop, while Back On The Street has claims on recent form. The latter was behind LILA AT THE BEACH last time, though, and Steven Miyadi's filly could confirm that form.

ARMAGNAC was too keen for his own good in the Santa Anita Derby but if he settles better in this lower grade, he could take some stopping. High Connection bolted up on debut and has to enter the reckoning, while Clampett looks in fine fettle and could go well too.

KING APOLLO reigned supreme on his latest outing here, relishing the return to turf and coming from off the pace to score. With Newpark and Explosive likely to vie for the front early on, this race could be set up for Kristin Mulhall's charge. Doncic is another to consider.

EDA could prove a class apart in this. A Grade 1 winner at Los Alamitos last season, she returned to action with an all-the-way success in a Grade 3 and her rivals may not see which way she's gone here. Unsolved Mystery and Empire Gal look the dangers.

First Class Dad got within a head of success here last time and is interesting, while newcomer Twokidsfromdabronx is worth a market check at least, but DANIEL'S MAGIC gets the vote. A good second here last time, he could go one better in this.

After filling the runner-up spot on her last three starts, this looks an ideal opportunity for NEVER SWAY to shake off the bridesmaid tag and score. Good Boo Joo and Quick Take look the likeliest beneficiaries if the selection does falter.

Topolina has been run out of it late on in both of her starts so far and she may suffer the same fate at the hands of SWEETHEART here. Ryan Hanson's filly ran on well from an unpromising position on debut and should have more to offer. Gypsy Lynn is another to note.

WICKED TRICK struggled to make an impact in a Grade 2 here last time but may have more to offer in a grade that saw him finish second on his penultimate start. Loud Mouth and Triple Tap are others to consider.

Barnfield's first success came in the stewards' room but he may have more to offer, though CHERUBIC FACTOR has been a model of consistency in slightly more valuable races than this of late and could be a tough nut to crack. Kant Beat The Rock won well last time and is of interest too.
