Group 1 winner THE CHOSEN VRON (4) finished last campaign a winner of the Don Valpredo California Cup Sprint S. Then was a first time out winner in the G3 San Carlos Stakes at this track (Dirt). Second up record is strong and sure to go close if runs up to best. Multiple Group 2 winner FORBIDDEN KINGDOM (1) won at this track and distance at his last outing four months ago, the only appearance of that campaign. Reunites with J J Hernandez who has three wins when on board. Best form puts him right in this. Group 1 placegetter HAPPY JACK (5) comes here off a break of ten months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last prep over 6f at Churchill Downs. Has to be respected. PRINCE ABU DHABI (2) was well supported when resuming last time out over 6f at Golden Gate Fields (Synthetic) and proved too strong, scoring by 0.1 lengths.
