Form Snapshot: Winner of five races at 1m on good ground and on the all-weather. Third of 8 behind Oobubbakakayo beaten 1 3/4l at 9-1 on his latest outing at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 1m last month. Has C&D wins but inconsistent lately
Form Snapshot: Successful twice at 1m on good ground. Beaten 10l behind Ya'll Come at 20-1 when seventh of 8 on his latest outing at Del Mar over 6f last month. Unlikely based on recent struggles
Form Snapshot: He has won four times from 1m to 1m 1f on good ground, but last win was over two years ago. Finished 5l behind Ah Jeez when sixth of 12 at 12-1 on his latest outing at Del Mar over 1m (good) last month. Difficult to fancy on current trend
Form Snapshot: He has won four times at 1m on good ground and on the all-weather. Finished 8l behind Mighty Kai when fifth of 9 at 18-1 on his latest outing at Del Mar over 1m last month. Hard to assess after long break
Form Snapshot: Successful twice at 1m on the all-weather. Finished 2 3/4l behind Oobubbakakayo when fourth of 8 at 16-1 on his latest outing at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 1m last month. Capable of better in this grade

Form Snapshot: Has won nine races at 1m on good ground and on the all-weather. Finished 10l behind Stolen Treasure when fifth of 8 at 20-1 on his latest outing at Del Mar over 1m last month. Worthy of consideration dropping down
Form Snapshot: He has won three times from 5f to 1m 2f on good ground and on the all-weather, but last win was over two years ago. Finished 14l behind Clever Clover when last of 6 at 13-10fav on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 6f in June. Having his first run for a new stable today. Needs to prove stamina at trip
Form Snapshot: Winner of six races from 7f to 1m on good ground and on the all-weather. Beaten 8l behind Steak Fries at 20-1 when seventh of 8 on his latest outing at Del Mar over 1m (good) last month. May benefit from class relief
Form Snapshot: He has won four times from 6f to 1m on good ground and on the all-weather. Won on his latest outing when 6-5fav at Del Mar over 1m last month, beating Mongolian Max by 10l. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with Doug O Neill in United States. Leading chance with recent success
Form Snapshot: He has won three times at 1m on good ground. Finished 15l behind Pioneer Prince when sixth of 10 at 12-1 on his latest outing at Del Mar over 1m last month. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with Jose Valdez. Best to avoid on current evidence
Verdict
JOINT VENTURE won impressively last time out and steps up in class with confidence after that commanding victory. Pioneer Prince and Wizard Of Westwood also merit consideration.
