TIRUPATI (1) went forward last start over 1m in the G2 Buena Vista Stakes at this track (Turf) and held on well for second, beaten a nose. Enjoys a drop in grade so she is likely to play a big role. ALPHA BELLA (3) turned in a nice run when fresh from a lay-off two starts back at this track then missed the placings last time when 8 lengths from the winner in fifth over 1m in the G1 Beholder Mile Stakes at this track (Dirt). Can bounce back to her best form. UNCORKED (5) finished fourth when resuming from a lay-off last start over 1m at this track. Credentials hard to fault. DESERT RHAPSODY (4) finished fourth over 1m in the G3 Torrey Pines Stakes at Del Mar (Dirt) at her most recent appearance on August 31. Worth plenty of thought.
