NATURALLY BLONDE (5) is ready to win after she just missed last time, beaten half a length into second over 6f at Santa Anita (Turf) after being in the firing line all the way. Will need a good ride from Kazushi Kimura off the awkward draw. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. PLAY MY SPEED (2) drifted well back last start before winding up strongly to finish third, beaten one length, over 6f at Santa Anita (Turf). Among the top chances. BESSIE COLEMAN (1) did little and finished 6 lengths from the winner in fifth over 1m at Santa Anita last start after being in contention on the bend, a less impressive effort than her fourth at this track the run before. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. PRACTICAL DAZZLE (4) finished 2.5 lengths from the winner in fifth after being prominent at the corner at her most recent appearance over 6f at Santa Anita (Turf). Expected to feature in the finish this time.
