IRIDEO (10) finished third over 6½f in the G2 Joe Hernandez Stakes at Santa Anita (Turf) at his most recent appearance on December 28. Now under the care of new trainer Amador Merei Sanchez. Rates highly and is likely to be prominent. BATTLE CALL (1) drifted well back last start before winding up strongly to finish third, beaten 1.3 lengths, over 7½f at this track (Turf). Expected to prove tough to hold out again. QUEREME PASS (2) followed an unplaced effort when resuming two runs back with a second last start over 7½f at this track after being in the firing line on the turn. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. POSITIVE REVIEW (7) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 1m at this track, beaten 3 lengths. Strips fitter and can improve.
