    Race Analysis

    PLUTARCH (2) got off the mark with an impressive maiden win last time out over 1m1f at Del Mar (Turf). Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Looms as one of the hardest to beat again. STARK CONTRAST (4) wasn't far away last time at big odds, finishing second over 1m in the G1 Breeders Cup Juvenile Turf at Del Mar (Turf). Expecting him to run well again. IRISEACH (3) ran on strongly but just failed to pick up the winner last start over 1m in the G3 Cecil B. DeMille Stakes at Del Mar (Turf). Will derive great benefit from recent racing. Hard to beat in this suitable race. UNRIVALED TIME (7) scored last start in the G3 Cecil B. DeMille Stakes at Del Mar (Turf) to make it two wins from three starts this campaign. Takes on much easier opposition this time. Sure to be thereabouts.
