HERMELINDA'S FANCY (6) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just once from 10 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when eighth over 6f at Santa Anita, beaten 9 lengths. Tackling a more suitable race this time so he can take this out. DORIS AVENUE (2) finished out of the money two starts back then he was never in contention and was beaten 4 lengths when fourth over 4f124yards at this track five weeks ago. This doesn't look as hard so he is sure to be prominent. LURKING FEAR (1) finds it hard to win with just one success from 13 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when ninth over 6f at Santa Anita, beaten 13 lengths. Perfectly placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. NAUKANAUKA (5) showed good early dash and raced on the speed last start before fading to finish 8 lengths back in fourth over 6f at Santa Anita (Dirt). Cannot be underestimated.
