COMMENTS: There is not much light between PRINCESS GRACE and GOING GLOBAL, we will give the four-year-old PRINCESS GRACE the slight nod over the three-year-old. WARRENS SHOWTIME has 10 consecutive high-quality races, expecting number 11. ZOFELLE tends to run well after some rest. Shes been off since early June.

COMMENTS: BELLA SOFIA has increased her speed number in four straight, including the top, last race figure by a sizeable margin. GAMINE is the one to beat, something thats only happened once in 10 races. EDGEWAYs metrics says she fits in this group and could pull off the upset. CE CE hit triple digits on the speed gun in her last three starts. BELLA SOFIA is the only other to do the same.

COMMENTS: EMARAATY ANA has been in top form against solid competition. GOLDEN PAL will be on/near the lead from gate to wire. LIEUTENANT DAN has some of the fastest early fractions for this group and loves short sprints. KIMARI could get an ideal trip right behind a swift early pace and go on by late.

COMMENTS: LIFE IS GOOD could control the race from wire to wire. SILVER STATE has the best closing numbers and should not be too far behind the leaders. PINGXIANG tends to win or finish way behind. His recent bullet workout says he should like the track. GINOBILI has some of the swiftest early fractions for this group and could ride shotgun all the way around the track.

COMMENTS: LOVE has been against tougher company and appears to be back in form. WAR LIKE GODDESS has improved her final speed number in five straight. AUDAYRA seems to run her best on fast/firm surfaces. She should get that at Del Mar. GOING TO VEGAS will try to steal this one on the lead.

COMMENTS: DR. SCHIVEL won his last with ease despite the right reign breaking early. JACKIES WARRIOR has won seven of eight on a fast track, something he should get as it never rains in Southern California. SPECIAL RESERVE has finished in the money 11 of 13 at the distance. FOLLOWING SEA improved his speed figure in the last thee, another step forward could be enough.

COMMENTS: SPACE BLUES has several Group 1 wins in Europe. The distance it the only question. MO FORZA ran the top last race speed figure and stands to be better in her third race off the bench. BLOWOUT will try to take them from wire to wire. PEARLS GALORE might be overlooked, but he should really like the course fast and firm.

COMMENTS: Wow, what an amazing race. The top half of this race is loaded with quality. PRIVATE MISSION is getting better and better. She has the top, California jockey in Flavien Prat who will make sure she gets the right trip. LETRUSKA has been unreal and could take it up another notch in her third start off the bench. MALATHAAT is one of three to run a last race speed figure above par for this level. SHEDARESTHEDEVIL runs well after a little time off, like today, winning her last five first starts after a layoff.

COMMENTS: DOMESTIC SPENDING should rate nicely and packs some serious late punch. WALTON STREET has two wins, a second and third in four at the distance. TEONA looks to be in peak form and getting better. TARNAWA has four wins in five races at the distance, winning more than $2.2 million.

COMMENTS: ESSENTIAL QUALITY has the highest pedigree score for the distance and surface. KNICKS GO has been all or nothing in the last two years, seven wins in nine races and nothing else. MEDINA SPIRIT ran some of the fastest opening fractions for this group in his last run. HOT ROD CHARLIES last race speed figure was above par, even for this level.
