STRAIGHT LUCK (1) ran below expectations last time after being in the firing line on the bend at Del Mar (Turf), finishing fifth and beaten 3 lengths starting at 4/1. Has the class to take care of this field. CAPITAL OUTLAY (4) showed good early speed and led throughout to score by half a length last start over 5f at Del Mar (Turf). J J Hernandez stays on. Among the leading chances. CHICK'S DIG IT (8) was far from disgraced when seventh last start over 5f at Del Mar, beaten 2.5 lengths. That followed a win at Del Mar the start prior. Has the class to figure prominently. BELLY UP (7) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a sixth over 5f at Del Mar (Turf). Perfectly placed and is sure to play a pivotal role.
