    Race Analysis

    BENTORNATO (10) has an imposing record with six career wins. Added to his reputation last start when a winner by 5 lengths over 6f at Churchill Downs. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Best form puts him right in this. IMAGINATION (7) showed good early pace over 6f in the G2 Santa Anita Sprint Championship (Dirt) when resuming last time and kept going to score by 1. 75 lengths. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he has the ability to mix it with them. KOPION (1) is back at the races for the first time since August 2. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last prep over 6½f at Los Alamitos. Has recorded three wins when when resuming from a break. Sure to make her presence felt. STRAIGHT NO CHASER (12) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish third over 6f in the G2 Santa Anita Sprint Championship (Dirt). John R Velazquez who has scored on him five times retains the mount. Solid claims on best form.
