Form Snapshot: Unplaced in all four starts. Finished 4l behind Sunset Ride when fourth of 10 at 16-1 on his latest outing at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 1m last month. Hard to assess on limited evidence

Form Snapshot: Placed twice in five starts. Third of 10 behind Che beaten 13l at 20-1 on his latest outing at Del Mar over 1m last month. Capable of better in this class
Form Snapshot: Yet to place in four starts. Well beaten at 55-1 behind Johnlino when seventh of 8 on his latest outing at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 6f in June. Unlikely to trouble the leaders
Form Snapshot: Placed once in six starts. Beaten 17l behind Che at 20-1 when seventh of 10 on his latest outing at Del Mar over 1m last month. Could go well at this level
Form Snapshot: Placed once in five starts. Finished 6l behind Proud Racer when fourth of 5 at 16-1 on his latest outing at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 1m in June. Has good potential dropping down
Form Snapshot: Placed twice in nine starts. Beaten a neck by Sunset Ride when second of 10 at 4-1 on his latest outing at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 1m last month. Worthy of consideration here
Form Snapshot: Placed twice in 11 starts. Finished 6l behind Sunset Ride when sixth of 10 at 13-2 on his latest outing at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 1m last month. Difficult to recommend on form
Form Snapshot: Dam won six times at 6f. Well beaten at 30-1 behind Hardtobebetternow when last of 11 on his racecourse debut at Santa Anita over 1m (good) in June. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with Peter Miller in United States. Needs to improve significantly
Form Snapshot: Unplaced in both starts. Finished 6l behind Agrowest when last of 6 at 9-2 on his latest outing at Los Alamitos Racecourse over 6f in June. Best to avoid on evidence
Form Snapshot: Unplaced in both starts. Beaten 13l behind Hankering at 40-1 when seventh of 9 on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 5f in June. He is wearing blinkers for the first time. Limited appeal on recent runs
Form Snapshot: Placed once in eight starts. Finished 6l behind Sunk Cost Fallacy when sixth of 11 at 20-1 on his latest outing at Del Mar over 6f last month. Stands chance with improvement
Form Snapshot: Yet to place in five starts. Finished 2 1/2l behind Sunk Cost Fallacy when fourth of 11 at 14-5fav on his latest outing at Del Mar over 6f last month. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with Alfredo Marquez in United States. Likely to struggle again
Form Snapshot: Placed twice in four starts. Beaten 1 3/4l by Sunk Cost Fallacy when second of 11 at 9-2 on his latest outing at Del Mar over 6f last month. Strong contender on recent form
Verdict
DESERT HAWK finished a close second the last time out and could prove hard to beat with that form. Duke Of Orleans and Dazzle Comm also merit consideration.
