Del Mar Race 1 - Race 1 - Mdn Special Weight
BOLD TYPE (6) is a two-start maiden who was unplaced on debut then improved to finish second last time over 1207m at Santa Anita (Dirt), beaten 2.25 lengths. Has the speed to overcome the draw. Heading in the right direction and looks the one to beat. ET AL (3) was prominent until they straightened last time but weakened to finish fifth over 1609m at Santa Anita Turf (Turf). Rates highly in this field and can turn things around. ALA SAWAB (1) resumes today after running lost rider as the favourite on debut in a small field at this track (Dirt). Rates an each way chance. CYPRUS AVENUE (2) turned in a much better run at his second appearance last time out when 7 lengths from the winner in third over 1207m at Santa Anita (Dirt). Coming along nicely and should be in the finish.

Jumped at a huge quote at debut, ran last of 10 at Santa Anita Turf on October 11 over 1207m, 25 len behind Sip It with 55.5kg at $65.70. Might need more time based on that poor debut.

Form hard to fault. Returns from a 32-day let-up. At the latest run 4th of 10 at Santa Anita on October 12 over 1609m, 14 len behind Domenici carrying 55kg at $34.30. Before that ran second last in a small field at Los Alamitos on September 18 over 1207m, 8 len behind Mystic Ride carrying 55.5kg at $15.70. Mediocre effort last time out but this suits.
