Surprise Fashion

Jockey: Alex Cruz Trainer: Jorge Rosales Age/Wt: 9/8-13 F: 62498

Comment: A previous winner here; creditable effort (went off 50-1) to finish eighth at Turf Paradise over 6½f (starter allowance) 27 days ago; has to be considered as peak figure in the past year is the best in the field and there was plenty to like about his latest performance.

Park Road Cowboy

Jockey: Pablo Castillo Trainer: Gary Greiner Age/Wt: 6/8-8 F: 1-7656

Comment: Has managed two wins from ten career runs but generally modest form since claimer success at Ferndale in August; finished last of six at Los Alamitos four weeks ago in a claimer (mixed); now eased in the grades (in for $2.5k); probably unlikely to trouble the principals.

Comment: Lightly raced (this just his fifth race); sixth beaten 12l over 6f at Santa Anita (claimer) last month on debut for this trainer; drops to a $8k tag from $16k; a major contender despite defeats on last two starts as he scored three runs back.

Jockey: Alex Cruz Trainer: Jorge Rosales Age/Wt: 3/8-9 F: 046881

Bold Encounter

Comment: Far from disgraced (beaten just over 3l) at Pleasanton five months ago in a claimer; returns from a layoff; in for a $8k tag here, up from $5k last time; recently has been finding this claiming level too hot so has some questions to answer.

Amanofmystature

Jockey: Alex Cruz Trainer: Michael Lenzini Age/Wt: 7/8-10 F: 4339-

Comment: Behind Cooperklimt four months ago at Pleasanton when beaten 35l (ninth of ten) in a claimer; useful in this grade and in good form before making a backwards step last time out; returns from a layoff; difficult to oppose as didn't get much luck in running when last seen and he ran well two runs back.

J T's Watch

Jockey: Silvio Amador Trainer: Jorge Maravilla Age/Wt: 7/8-10 F: 404-76

Comment: Form could be levelling off and slumped a bit since winning a claimer at Golden Gate Fields last May; not beaten too far when sixth of seven (Santa Anita) last month in an optional claimer; claiming tag rises from $6.3k last time; now looks to be past his prime and has questions to answer.

Coastal Waters

Jockey: Manuel Americano Trainer: Serjio Garcia Age/Wt: 7/8-5 F: 36523

Comment: Has maintained his consistent level of form; creditable effort to finish third (Turf Paradise) four weeks ago in an optional claimer; likely to be a threat as best speed figure over the past year reads well comparatively and latest speed figure suggests he can mix it with these despite the higher tag.

Comment: Has chalked up two wins from her last three; she meets the required standard ability wise; out of the frame (beaten 7l in seventh) over 4½f at Turf Paradise (starter allowance) three weeks ago; one to be interested in as didn't get much luck in running when last seen.
