HOPE ROAD (4) was well fancied when resuming last start over 7f in the G1 Breeders' Cup FM Sprint at this track (Dirt) when third, beaten 6 lengths. Back a level after tackling a tougher race last time. Sure to be there at the finish. WARMING (8) scored at her most recent appearance, getting home by 1. 75 lengths over 1m in the G3 Autumn Miss Stakes at Santa Anita (Turf). That continued the solid form this campaign, with two wins from six outings. Leading player again. MAHINA (2) was unplaced on turf over 1m1f at this track in a then again couldn't find the top-three on the same surface last time out, finishing ninth over 1m at Santa Anita. Change of rider to Umberto Rispoli who has three wins when aboard. Capable of running a bold race. PRECISE TIMING (6) finished a 1. 4 lengths fifth on dirt at Emerald Downs in a then followed up with a minor placing on turf at Santa Anita over 1m five weeks ago. Going well and must be included again.
