COMMENTS: SPECIAL WAN should get into excellent position to make one big move versus a field that wants to close. MEDORO has three wins with a second and third in a handful at the distance. DEEP SATIN has a couple of her best published workouts between races. TEMPTABLE is a bit of a wild card but the breeding and the class appear to be there for this level.

COMMENTS: SWEET AZTECA won seven of nine on a fast track and is tough to beat if she takes the lead into the stretch. HOPE ROAD could get an ideal trip sitting behind a wall of speed and cashing in late. HAULIN ICE won six of her last eight races and could be poised to pop in the third up. RICHI showed speed and faded late in the first off the sidelines last out, A trio of works since means she will have more stamina today.

| Alternate 1 | 5-1 | 3 | Arizona Blaze | D Egan |
| Alternate 2 | 20-1 | 13 | Puro Magic | O Murphy |
COMMENTS: Another good luck race as you can make a case for at least ten starters. AG BULLET just needs to get off to a fast start and make her usual bold mid move. MOTORIOUS is a solid short sprinter with four wins and three seconds in nine quick trips around the track. REEF RUNNER should be somewhat close to the pace here and has some of the most explosive late legs. SHISOSPICY won four of her five on turf and ducked out at the start in the lone miss.

| Alternate 1 | 15-1 | 2 | Banishing | T Gaffalione |
| Alternate 2 | 30-1 | 4 | Patriot Spirit | J Castellano |
COMMENTS: BENTORNATO just loves the distance with four wins and a close second in five tries. KOPION was wide throughout her last race and likely benefits from moving inside today. STRAIGHT NO CHASER handed BENTORNATO his only loss at the distance. He wants to be out front and will likely be out front versus these. BIG CITY LIGHTS has been off since January but is training lights out and could hit at a nice price.

COMMENTS: SEISMIC BEAUTY heads to the front where forty percent go gate to wire and plays catch me if you can for trainer Bob Baffert. NITROGEN is a head and a nose from winning a trio of Grade I stakes races in a row and could benefit from a rail trip. GIN GIN is likely to go forth at the start and might get a boost by cutting back a little in distance. SCYLLA has a look of a horse that is coming into peak form and should get one of the better trips according to Smart Sheets C ZONE.

| Alternate 2 | 20-1 | 9 | Gold Phoenix | U Rispoli |
COMMENTS: REBELS ROMANCE is the defending champ and you got to beat the champ if you want to be the champ. MINNIE HAUK is just a head away from winning five in a row including a trio of Group I races. REDISTRICTING ran much better early pace in his last race and first at the distance. EL CORDOBES finished in the money six of six race at the distance so you know it is not an issue.

| Alternate 2 | 20-1 | 3 | Nevada Beach | M E Smith |
COMMENTS: MINDFRAME has a strong record of coming off the sidelines to win, doing so four of five times tossing the jockey in the only miss. FOREVER YOUNG either wins like he has nine times or finishes third like he has done three times. JOURNALISM puts nothing but quality on the track but winning at the distance has not been easy with one and three place finishes. FIERCENESS benefits from the move inside as he got caught wide here last year.

| Alternate 1 | 8-1 | 7 | Johannes | U Rispoli |
| Alternate 2 | 20-1 | 9 | Argine | L Dettori |
COMMENTS: RHETORICAL ran the highest last race speed figure and better fractions. SAHLAN won three of six race and maybe his best effort was in his lone good footing trip. He should take nicely to Del Mar. PROGRAM TRADING just missed versus the top pick in his last. He might need a touch more than a mile. NOTABLE SPEECH has some of the best turf breeding in the race but has not won in a first up outing in the last three tries.

COMMENTS: NYSOS won both of his races at Del Mar by a lot and never ran a speed figure below triple digits in his six race career. FULL SERRANO will head to the front and try to stay there versus a field that wants to be middle back. WHITE ABARRIO is training out of his mind for this spot. TOUCH OF DESTINY is unbeaten in six and you just do not know how good a horse is until it loses.

| Alternate 1 | 9-2 | 9 | Cinderellas Dream | W Buick |
| Alternate 2 | 30-1 | 2 | Stellify | F Geroux |
COMMENTS: SEE THE FIRE won by a dozen lengths the time he ran a second start off the bench like today. SHE FEELS PRETTY has never been beaten by more than a length in twelve starts. DIAMOND RAIN has excellent turf breeding and any improvement from her last would be enough. GEZORA hit the board in eight of nine races in France, including a pair of Group I wins. She should fit.
