STRAKER (6) was always well out of her ground when 17 lengths from the winner in 11th over 6f at Del Mar last start, a less impressive effort than her fifth at Del Mar the run before. Finds an easier assignment and can find winning form. CUT N CURL (4) is poised to win after placing at her last three outings, most recently when second over 5½f at Sweetwater County Fair (Dirt) when she was prominent throughout. Meeting a deeper field this time but she deserves plenty of thought. LUCK HAPPENS (1) was safely held on debut last start, finishing 15 lengths behind the winner in sixth over 5½f at Los Alamitos (Dirt). Plenty of scope for improvement. Shapes as one to consider. MEAN NURSE (5) was always well back on debut last start and made no impression, finishing fifth over 4f124yards at this track (Dirt). Improvement in store with added fitness and the blinkers removed.
