Verdict: GEM MINE is bidding for her second course success and the abundance of pace up front enhances her claims. Free And Humble and Annie's Joy also have claims.

Gem Mine

Jockey: Kazushi Kimura Trainer: R Baltas Age/Wt: 6/9-0 F: 4-1374

Comment: Didn't run too badly when out of the frame here (beaten just under 4l) in a claimer (bobbled at the start) 42 days ago; useful in this grade; arguably the one to beat if duplicating the form of her most recent win and in off a lower claiming tag.

Ready Jet Go

Jockey: Diego Herrera Trainer: Brian Cunningham Age/Wt: 7/9-0 F: 53-547

Comment: Not won for some time now; finished behind Free And Humble in a claimer when beaten 8l upped to this trip in April; in for a $30k tag so up in class ($25k last time); can't go on the shortlist as now looks to be past her prime.

Red Diamond

Jockey: Serafin Carmona Trainer: R McAnally Age/Wt: 8/9-0 F: 16-745

Comment: Didn't run too badly when out of the frame here (beaten just over 4l) in a claimer upped to 1m three months ago; lightly raced for age but has struggled to factor since winning a claimer at Santa Anita in September; claiming value now rises to $30k; may have to settle for supporting role as no longer in her pomp.

Kitty Kitana

Jockey: Armando Ayuso Trainer: John Sadler Age/Wt: 6/9-0 F: 54-556

Comment: Finished last of six when close behind Free And Humble four weeks ago in a claimer; operating at a lower level than at her peak; likely to be a threat as shown some signs of promise and the trainer is in rude health.

Free And Humble

Jockey: Antonio Fresu Trainer: Peter Miller Age/Wt: 5/9-0 F: 634255

Comment: Not disgraced in fifth over 6½f here (claimer) last month; she shouldn't be far away as boasts the best speed figure posted by this field in the last 12 months and has shown some ability on occasion.

Verdict: DESERT GATE is hard to look beyond. He is from a yard whose newcomers often hit the ground running, while Jetway should also be taken seriously.

1	Bella's Bro Jockey: William Iii Antongeorgi Trainer: Doug O'Neill Age/Wt: 2/8-7	NR
Comment: Stable gets plenty of debutant winners; first competitive racecourse experience; a line drawn through unless betting signals are positive.
2	Proletariat Jockey: Kyle Frey Trainer: Jeff Mullins Age/Wt: 2/8-7	SP
Comment: Having his first start in public; sibling of Sun Never Sets (7½f winner); worth a look in the market but passed over otherwise.
3	Jetway Jockey: Hector Berrios Trainer: John Sadler Age/Wt: 2/8-7	SP
Comment: Trainer has enjoyed debutant winners at this course; looks the part on breeding (by Munnings); related to Breezy Money (winner from 6f up to 1m); entitled to respect with signs of encouragement in profile and the stable is flying.
4	Acknowledgemeplz Jockey: Antonio Fresu Trainer: Doug O'Neill Age/Wt: 2/8-7	SP
Comment: Related to Our Fantasy (winner from 6f up to 1m½f); newcomers from this trainer regularly hit the target; definitely of interest as has recorded some interesting trackwork and his sire gets speedy types.
5	Desert Gate Jockey: Juan Hernandez Trainer: Bob Baffert Age/Wt: 2/8-7	SP
Comment: Trainer does well here with debutants; looks the part on breeding (by Omaha Beach); difficult to oppose with signs of encouragement in profile and stable is in good order.

Jockey: Welfin Orantes Trainer: Enebish Ganbat Age/Wt: 4/8-9 F: 1-31355

Comment: Held in fifth last month in an optional claimer; winning form over C&D; he can be competitive at this level; productive partnership with Welfin Orantes, who retakes the mount; best of his form suggests ability; he is a serious player.

Comment: Likes this combination of C&D; has proven competitive in a race of this nature; out of the frame (beaten 6l in fifth) on first run for this trainer last month (behind Fireman Dan) in a claimer; he should go close if finding his best form.

Fireman Dan

Comment: Good runner-up at 18-1 four weeks ago; closely matched with Be Punctual on that running in a claimer; produced several respectable runs lately; does not win very often; unlikely to achieve more than just a supporting role as now looks to be past his prime.

Jockey: Edgar Payeras Trainer: Sergio Morfin Age/Wt: 5/9-0 F: 22732

Comment: Shown all winning form at Los Alamitos (five successes) but produced a string of consistent efforts; missed out by three-quarters of a length at Los Alamitos over 4½f (claimer) two weeks ago; claiming tag now upped to $5k; if he can build on his latest effort then no surprise to see him go well.

Spotted Haze

Jockey: Juan Hernandez Trainer: Jeff Mullins Age/Wt: 3/8-10 F: 121

Comment: Got the job done in an allowance optional claimer by three-quarters of a length last month; has won two of her three career runs; leading claims.

Press Your Luck

Jockey: Kyle Frey Trainer: Doug O'Neill Age/Wt: 3/8-10 F: 33325

Tight Squeeze

Jockey: Hector Berrios Trainer: John Sadler Age/Wt: 3/8-10 F: 14

Comment: Has scored over C&D; fair effort over 6½f here (allowance optional claimer) last month; needs to be respected as trainer in rude health and shown she can win fairly recently.

Hurricane Layla

Jockey: Armando Ayuso Trainer: Antonio Garcia Age/Wt: 3/8-10 F: 1

Comment: Successful by 4½l first time out four weeks ago over C&D; first run in claiming company; progress needed on this second career run despite that win last time.

Ellen Jorth

Comment: Gained narrow win on her debut here at 11-1 last month; first attempt in claiming company; one to take seriously.

Verdict: TOULOUSE DETRAC could capitalise if the leaders go too fast and has won once over this C&D. Putt For Dough and Stellar Cap could also have a role to play.

Smile Baby Smile

Jockey: Ricardo Gonzalez Trainer: Andy Mathis Age/Wt: 4/8-12 F: 2-62356

Comment: Unable to land a blow in sixth in an allowance optional claimer last month; has won three races from 5½f to 1m½f; warrants respect as she finished third at Santa Anita three months ago.

Toulouse Detrac

Jockey: Antonio Fresu Trainer: George Papaprodromou Age/Wt: 4/8-12 F: 5-1774

Comment: Finished fourth but wasn't beaten too far (8l) over 6f here (claimer) four weeks ago; a winner over this C&D; claiming tag drops from $20k; her best form stacks up so she needs to be taken seriously.

Stellar Cap

Jockey: Alfredo Bautista Trainer: Gary Stute Age/Wt: 4/8-5 F: 5525

Comment: Useful at this level and producing consistent form; solid effort over 4½f at Los Alamitos (claimer (mixed)) two weeks ago; class dropper as runs for a $8k tag here; should not be far away if in the same mood as when achieving most recent success and jockey does well from inside draws here.

Putt For Dough

Jockey: Diego Herrera Trainer: Antonio Garcia Age/Wt: 4/9-0 F: 64117

Comment: Finished seventh, beaten a fair way in a claimer last month; has chalked up two wins from her last three; drops to a $8k tag from $25k; she has a shout.

Outer Sunset

Jockey: Geovanni Franco Trainer: Bill McLean Age/Wt: 4/8-12 F: 27645-

Miss Miche Lada

Jockey: Edgar Payeras Trainer: Sergio Morfin Age/Wt: 4/8-12 F: 323518

Comment: Last of eight over 6f here (claimer) last month on debut for this trainer; signs of improvement on last two runs; this C&D holds no fears; in for a $8k tag so down in class ($16k last time); unlikely to achieve more than just a supporting role.

High Gunner

Jockey: Kazushi Kimura Trainer: Vann Belvoir Age/Wt: 6/8-12 F: 98-123

Comment: Not disgraced when third at Turf Paradise 52 days ago in a claimer; has been fairly consistent this year and admirable career strike-rate (five from 21 to date); calmer waters here (in for $8k, $10k tag last time).
