$40K optional claimers go 5 1/2 furlongs on the grass. No. 5 Ginobili may like this course coming off a good effort on the five-furlong Del Mar grass course. No. 7 Jamming Eddy is in top form. No. 8 Duplicity gets the bug boy Alexis Centeno up for trainer John Sadler. 8-7-5
Race 2
$30K maiden 2-year-olds travel a flat mile. No. 3 Freerunning will be out doing just that on the stretch out. No. 2 Foxborough will be sitting right off his flank. 3-2
Race 3
$30K maiden 2-year-old fillies travel a flat mile. No. 1 Clubhouse Saint stretches out on the drop in this, her second start. Jockey Flavien Prat jumps on No. 3 Big Moon in what looks to be the money run. 1-3

$40K optional claimers travel 1 mile. No. 2 Ekklesia had a big last work for this. No. 3 Nolo Contesto looks the one to beat with the blinkers going on. No. 5 Strongconstitution exits the same race as Nolo Contesto. 3-5-2
Race 6
Maiden 2-year-olds travel a flat mile on the grass. No. 3 Harlan Estate had a big effort last out at this level and distance. No. 4 Mount Pelliar finished right behind Harlan Estate as did No. 6 Heliochrome. We say box all three. 3-4-6
