SOUTH COAST ROUTE (2) returned last time with a solid third at this track (Dirt) over 1m after being in contention on the corner. Won't find this as tough so he is all set to open the account. BLUEGRASS RYDER (1) again failed to feature last start, finishing fifth and beaten 15 lengths over 6½f at Santa Anita (Dirt). Among the top chances on his best figures. WHISKEY VISION (3) returns after four-and-a-half months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a seventh over 1m at Santa Anita (Dirt). One of the leading chances. RANGER JOE (5) returned from a lay-off two-and-a-half weeks ago when he was in contention on the bend before being beaten 9 lengths into fourth over 1m at Golden Gate Fields. Strips fitter and can figure in the finish.
