MIRACLE BALL (2) maintained her unbeaten record on dirt in a over 6f at Del Mar but couldn't repeat the feat on turf over 5f at Del Mar last time, finishing ninth and beaten 12 lengths. Kazushi Kimura who has two wins when partnering stays on. Expecting a bold showing. BIG CELEBRATION (3) is resuming from a break of 11 weeks for a new stable after finishing ninth over 1m at Del Mar (Dirt) at her latest outing. Goes well when resuming from a lay-off, including two minor placings from four starts. Among the leading chances. BUDS N SUDS (5) turned in a modest performance when sixth last time out over 6½f at Del Mar, beaten 5. 5 lengths. That followed a win at Del Mar at the previous outing. This doesn't look as hard so she can make amends. MADEIRA WINE (1) was safely held when fifth last time out over 1m at Del Mar, beaten 5 lengths, after a win at Del Mar at the previous outing. Worth plenty of thought.
