OLIVIA (8) resumes from a three-and-a-half months lay-off and looked close to a win before the break, starting favourite and finishing second at Santa Anita Turf (Turf). Re-unites with Kazushi Kimura. Ready for a bold run while fresh. MANHATTAN BEAUTY (3) is a five-start maiden who finished eighth, beaten 7 lengths, when resuming from a lay-off last start over 5½f at this track (Dirt). Can come on from that run and looks a serious contender. SALTY SISS (2) is close to breaking through after finishing third last start over 5f at Turf Paradise (Dirt) when she was prominent throughout. Goes up a rung or two but she is worth serious consideration. DARLIN' DUCHESS (5) is a three-year-old filly who has filled a minor placing just once in seven runs. Never a threat when resuming last start over 6f at this track (Dirt), finishing 13 lengths from the winner in fifth. Will drift back but wind up late. Not to be discounted.
