Edgar Payeras is back on and has a solid record on the four-year-old, including four wins. Among the leading chances. WESTERN AVENUE (2) turned in a modest performance when sixth last time out over 5½f at Del Mar, beaten 5.5 lengths. That followed a win at Del Mar at the previous outing. Has the talent to return to the winner's list. THE BIG CHEESEOLA (10) hit the frame two starts ago at Del Mar but ran below par last time when eighth and beaten 12 lengths over 6f at Del Mar (Dirt). Perfectly placed and is sure to be there at the finish. STAN FROM MALIBU (1) was below his best last time, finishing eighth and beaten 7 lengths over 5½f at Del Mar (Dirt). Open to improvement and should be about the money.
