WILL ROGERS DOWNS

7.15

SPIRIT MISSION hit the crossbar at Turf Paradise last time against stronger opposition than this. He finished with a real rattle but the line came a couple of strides too soon. That was over this mile distance and he should be right there.

Survey has to come from out wide but was impressive when winning in a higher grade over course and distance latest. His trainer and jockey have a high win rate when they team up.

Touch Em Up didn’t get going here latest but comes from in-form connections so can’t be dismissed.

BREW CASA should be too good for these rivals after going close over course and distance last time out. She tried to force the pace there and just paid for that in the closing stages. She has held her own in much stronger company and has been clocking much faster times than the rest of the field.

Camo Washita has the plum inside draw and has been running with credit at this level. This slight hike in distance could help too.

Apple County won with a bit left in the tank here last month and can’t be discounted despite going up in grade.

OUR VISION is coming back from a long break but is coming right down in class for his Will Rogers debut. His trainer and jockey have been firing in the winners and this isn’t the strongest opposition.

Jimmy Winne has shown some promise on his two starts with a couple of fourth places. He has a lot more to offer and worked well enough last week.

To The Front wasn’t asked too many questions on his debut at Oaklawn earlier this month and is coming right down the grades.

8.45

STEPHEN’S ANSWER has won five of his past seven starts and was beaten in a head-bobber on his Will Rogers debut last time. This looks an easier race and there could be improvement to come on his second outing after a break.

Lindante upset favourite backers when fourth here last time when dropping back to an inadequate six furlongs. He won over this trip two runs ago and should be much happier today.

Seattle Thunder is another who likes this distance and scored the last time he tackled this grade.

9.15

LAUNDRY KYLE looked more than a little rusty when coming back from a break to make her course debut last month. She was sent off a short order thanks to his decent form in better races but clearly needed the run. She should be much sharper today.

Los Suenos didn’t get home over six furlongs last time and will be happier at this distance. She has worked really well since then and has more to offer.

Posse Gone Wild doesn’t have the best of draws in stall 11 but has shown promise and could hit the frame.

9.45

ROCKY BOY INDIAN is a model of consistency and showed promise on his first spin around Will Rogers earlier this month. Going up in trip looks a wise move and inside draws have a high strike-rate over this course and distance.

Ben’s Magic Stone hasn’t won for a while but is usually right on the premises, including last time when he was beaten just two lengths. He hit the front too soon there and could go close with a better timed run.

Smok’n Policy was half a length away in a similar race when being forced wide so is another to note.

VERONICA’S DREAM is worth a punt despite coming from the outside draw. She has been running well in better races than this and was a convincing winner the last time she tackled this course and distance.

Lazzarella has a much better berth on the inside rail and was last seen running a close second at Rillito and winning at Turf Paradise. She is proven in this grade and looks a real danger.

Ten Count Out is dropping in class for an in-form yard so is another for the shortlist, while Daneira has worked well ahead of this course desbut and can’t be dismissed either.

10.45

BLUE MOONRISE put in a rare modest run at Oaklawn last time but that was against much stronger competition than today. Before that she had more than three lengths in hand when clocking a fast-time success. This is her first sight of Will Rogers Downs but she looks the one to beat.

Fool’s Paradise was sent off a short order here last time but had to settle for second. She has a better draw today and the yard does well with beaten favourites.

Baydar scooted in by four lengths here latest and should go close despite stepping up in class.

11.15

SPRING STEEN clearly needed the run when sixth after a long break here last time out. That was the first time she had been out of the places at Will Rogers and she should be a lot fitter to do herself justice today.

Three Chords was beaten less than a length in stronger company at Oaklawn last time. She is best over this distance and looks a danger despite coming back from a short break.

Lady Orchid is another who was rusty on return earlier this month but won four of her five races before that so can step up.

11.45

RIDE TO THE WIRE was impressive when scoring by more than three lengths on his course debut last week. He powered right away from his rivals so he can take this step up in class in his stride.

Baysider has worked well since a modest run at Laurel Park last month and is taking a drop in grade for his course debut. His best form would be good enough to go very close.

Ginge is drawn on the inside and ran a good second against similar rivals latest. He went from the front there and just failed to hang on.
