GOLDEN ALE (1) started at 5/1 last time and ran below expectations, finishing 11th and beaten 4 lengths at Del Mar (Turf) over 5f after being in contention on the turn. Has the talent to find the winners' list. MAN CHILD (4) scored on dirt over 6½f at Del Mar two starts ago then couldn't find the top-three on the same surface last time out over 1m at Los Alamitos. Going well at present and is sure to be thereabouts. ZOFFARELLI (5) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1m at Del Mar, beaten 1. 3 lengths into fourth after being in contention on the turn. Has started three times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. This doesn't look as hard so he is a major player. PLEASE FOCUS (9) filled a minor placing when fresh from a lay-off two starts ago. Could not back that up last time when 2. 25 lengths away in eighth over 5f at Del Mar (Turf). Better placed this time and can feature.
