R HEISMAN (5) was thereabouts last time out when second in Listed grade at Del Mar (Dirt) over 7f, beaten half a length. Is in solid form this time in work, scoring two times and placing on three occasions from seven starts. Should be hard to stop. SHEA BRENNAN (2) finished 2 lengths from the winner in third last start over 7f in stakes class at Del Mar (Dirt). Starts. With a better weight. Is yet to miss the frame from four starts this campaign, including a win. Best form puts him right in this. I'M A BAD BOY (4) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 0.8 lengths from the winner in third over 5f at Del Mar after being in contention on the turn. Going up a level this time but he deserves plenty of thought. CALL ME SIR (9) got off the mark over 1m at Santa Anita (Turf) last start, scoring by half a length. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Re-unites with Umberto Rispoli who was on board last start. Harder here but should be involved in the finish.
