MOTHER'S PRAYER (5) was in the money two starts back at this track but was unable to repeat the effort last time when sixth, beaten 4 lengths, at this track (Synthetic) over 1m after being in contention on the bend. F Alvarado gets the best out of this four-year-old gelding. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. AMERICAN FARMER (2) improved last start to finish second over 1m1/2f at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run. ANITANEWMERCEDES (3) was prominent at the corner and finished second last time over 1m at this track (Synthetic) when resuming from a lay-off, beaten a nose. Going up a level this time but he is good enough to play a major role. TESORO (6) was in the money two starts back at this track but was unable to repeat the effort last time when ninth, beaten 13 lengths, at Santa Anita (Turf) over 1m. Well placed and should be in the mix.
