GATE TO WIRE (4) was well held in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint won by Magnum Force over 5f at Del Mar at his last appearance ten weeks ago. Can play a big role in this company. TURBULENT FORCE (5) wasted no time getting off the mark on debut over 5f at this track (Turf) five weeks ago. Promising type who can go back-to-back. BACK EM UP (3) recorded his maiden win three back and is ready to score again after a couple of recent minor placings, the latest when third at this track (Dirt). Should park just off the speed. One of the main contenders. TORCH IS PASSED (1) turned in a fine effort to win by 1.5 lengths at this track and distance last time out to continue his outstanding recent form. Taking on a better line-up this time but he can get the job done.
