GEM MINE (9) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 5f at Del Mar, beaten 2.75 lengths into fourth. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. MOONLIGHT TRYST (2) was an impressive maiden winner last time out, scoring by 1.5 lengths over 6f at Los Alamitos (Dirt). Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Handy draw will assist and she is a solid top-three hope. TIANMA (12) is a four-year-old filly who is having her first run for the Doug F O'neill yard. Hasn't raced since finishing fourth at Woodbine ten weeks ago. Not seen at the trials but looks nicely placed. Leading player expected to feature. BOLD CHOICE (10) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing sixth at Del Mar (Dirt) over 6f. Best figures measure up nicely. In the mix.
