Del Mar Race 11 - Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile Stakes (G1)
NYSOS (3) is a talented entire who has been in the money at all six starts. Has not been produced since he got the prize over 1710m at this track on July 26. Should be prominent from the outset. Will prove tough to beat. FULL SERRANO (6) continues to race well with a win two back at this track (Dirt) before finishing 1.5 lengths away in second last time over 1811m in the G1 Awesome Again at Santa Anita (Dirt). Has been in the top three at all four starts here, including three wins. Will give backers a sight. GOAL ORIENTED (2) went forward when resuming last start over 1811m in the G1 Pennsylvania Derby at Parx (Dirt) and held on well for third, beaten 4 lengths. Should enjoy a good run just off the speed. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot salute. MYSTIK DAN (4) comes here following a win over 1811m at Churchill Downs five weeks ago, getting home by 0.8 lengths. Profiles to run well.
