Race 1 - 6 1/2 furlongs, Purse $19,000, Maiden claiming $40,000, 3-year-olds and up

Elusive Pleasure - Chalk takes a subtle drop in class and takes the blinkers off; should have more tactical speed.

Spanish Ice - Gets class relief from the Cal Cup for this first level condition; like the turn back in distance.

Unusual Heather - Tries turf for the first time; shows a lot of ability, Art Sherman wants to experiment.

I Want Revenge - Jeff Mullins had a quiet Oak Tree, don't expect the same at Hollywood; first time going long.

Race 5 - 1 mile (turf, rail at 15 feet), Purse $55,000, Optional claiming $80,000, 3-year-olds and up

Isipingo - Classy sort has been away 9-months; this is a prep for bigger fish, but he is extremely talented.

Stuttgart - Sadler is giving Gomez first call on everything, and why not; she should be along in time.

Long Shot - Peregian

Race 8 - 1 1/8th miles, Purse $10,000, Claiming $8,000, 3-year-olds and up

Proud Heritage - Dead late closer will benefit from tiring early leaders; like he's reunited with Joel Rosario.
