SALTWATER COWBOY (8) recorded a strong maiden win over 1m at Del Mar (Dirt) last time, getting there by 3 lengths. Breaks from a wide alley but he is likely to feature in the finish again. DON'T HIT ME BASH (3) showed good early dash and led throughout to score by 1.5 lengths last time out over 6½f at Los Alamitos (Dirt). Will prove very tough to beat. MISCHELOF (5) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 1.75 lengths away in second over 1m at Del Mar (Dirt) when she was always up in the leading division. Perfectly placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. COACH CRONIN (9) hasn't made an impression lately despite market confidence. Last start could only manage sixth over 6½f at Del Mar (Dirt). Can sneak into the finish.
