Verdict: BLAZING PEME is a strong fancy. He has shown he can get his head in front and has won over this trip before, while Mr. Executive is also respected.

Dekudylan

Jockey: Javier Matias Trainer: Tena Birdwell Age/Wt: 4/8-10 F: 5-624

Comment: Consistent lately and useful at this level; creditable fourth in a claimer at Turf Paradise five weeks ago; entitled to respect with return to this trip a plus and sights are lowered reflected by lower claiming tag.

Blazing Peme

Jockey: Manuel Americano Trainer: Tim McCanna Age/Wt: 5/8-5 F: 4-6

Comment: Lightly raced (this just his fifth race); sixth beaten 12l over 6f at Santa Anita (claimer) last month on debut for this trainer; drops to a $8k tag from $16k; a major contender despite defeats on last two starts as he scored three runs back.

Mr. Executive

Jockey: Francisco Duran Trainer: Blaine Wright Age/Wt: 4/8-10 F: 44713-

Comment: Has won at this track; has raised his game the last twice; good effort when beaten into third by just over 1l in a claimer in September; returns from a break here; has to be considered if replicating the best of his form.

Don't Have Another

Jockey: Alex Cruz Trainer: Jorge Rosales Age/Wt: 3/8-9 F: 046881

Comment: 25-1 winner of maiden claimer, breaking his duck at the eighth time of asking (Turf Paradise) three weeks ago; up in class (in for $8k here, $4.5k tag last time); others more persuasive despite that win last time.

Bold Encounter

Jockey: Silvio Amador Trainer: Jorge Maravilla Age/Wt: 4/8-10 F: 2376-

Comment: Far from disgraced (beaten just over 3l) at Pleasanton five months ago in a claimer; returns from a layoff; in for a $8k tag here, up from $5k last time; recently has been finding this claiming level too hot so has some questions to answer.
