MOTHER'S PRAYER (8) has been kept fresh for this since a disappointing eighth over 1m at this track (Dirt) 35 days ago. Can bounce back. CROWN MAGIC (10) drifted well back last start before winding up strongly to finish third, beaten 1.1 lengths, over 1m at this track (Dirt). Should run on into the finish again. OOBUBBAKAKAYO (5) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he was never in contention over 6f at this track, beaten 10 lengths into ninth. Perfectly placed and is sure to give this a mighty shake. IMPOSSIBLE TASK (3) had been racing well with two placings on end before finishing fourth last start over 4f124yards at Los Alamitos Qh. Returns to the course where he finished third two runs back. Armando Aguilar is back on and has a solid record on the eight-year-old, including two wins. One of the better hopes.
