Group 3 placegetter EDGE TO EDGE (8) finished 21 lengths away in sixth last start over 6f in stakes class at this track (Dirt) in a disappointing performance. Can bounce back. Multiple Group 2 winner C Z ROCKET (4) turned in a modest performance when third last time out over 6f at Santa Anita, beaten 3.5 lengths after being in contention on the corner. That followed a win at Del Mar at the previous outing. Ramon A Vazquez gets the best out of this 10-year-old gelding. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. NINJA WARRIOR (3) settled towards the back of the field last start and made little impact in the straight when ninth, beaten 7 lengths, over this journey at this track (Dirt). Finds a nice race and can get the job done. Group 1 placegetter KNEEDEEPINSNOW (1) was prominent at the bend and finished second last time over 6f at this track (Dirt) when resuming from a lay-off, beaten 1.75 lengths. Has the class to figure prominently.
