BIG HUG (3) settled towards the back of the field last start and made little impact in the straight when fifth, beaten 7 lengths, over this journey in the G2 Buena Vista Stakes at Santa Anita (Turf). Perfectly placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. FLAME MCGOON (6) scored by 0.1 lengths over 7½f in Listed grade at this track (Turf) last start. Has a superb record at the course, unbeaten so far from three starts. Sure to run well. MUCHO MACHO GIRL (2) is a talented mare who tackled tougher grade last time, finishing 7 lengths behind Rashmi over 1m in the G3 Megahertz Stakes at Santa Anita (Turf). Among the chances on her best figures. AVENTAPP (1) finished a 2.5 lengths sixth on turf at this track two starts ago. Much better last time though, following up with success on the dirt at this track over 6½f two-and-a-half weeks ago. Harder here but can make her presence felt again.
