BALADI (3) had been rock-solid with four placings in a row before finishing fourth over 1408m at Santa Anita last start. Goes very well at this journey, boasting two wins from four starts and is right in this. ALL THE GREATS (1) finished out of the money but was not too far away when resuming last start over 796m at this track (Dirt). Has never been out of the placings at this stage of the prep. Change of jockey to Edgar Payeras who has a strong record when aboard, including three wins. Expecting a bold showing. J T'S WATCH (6) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on December 13, finishing sixth and beaten 10 lengths over 1609m at Los Alamitos (Dirt). Makes plenty of appeal. TOOK CHARGE (4) is back at the races for the first time since August 9. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 914m at this track. Sure to make his presence felt.
