LETMEIN (6) met with solid support last start over 5½f at Del Mar (Dirt) when second, beaten 5 lengths. Certainly deserves another chance. MR MACHUPICCHU (5) is a nine-start maiden who looks close to breaking the duck after finishing in the placings at his last couple of runs, most recently when 3 lengths away in second over 6f at Los Alamitos. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Sure to be in the finish. GREY AREA (8) made an encouraging debut last time out, finishing 1.5 lengths from the winner in second over 6f at Los Alamitos (Dirt). Must be included among the main hopes. CHASING RYTER (2) is a two-year-old gelding on debut from the stable of J Mullins. By Straight Fire from Cinzia. Pay to watch for any positive betting moves.
