He was no menace in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile at Santa Anita a year ago or in another effort over the course in the Goodwood Stakes in October, suggesting strongly that he does not act on the local synthetic ground.

He has been defeated only by the brilliant filly Rachel Alexandra since early June and has improved progressively with each victory. Sent to California well before race day, the son of Birdstone from Hong Kong Squall has trained strongly over the Santa Anita surface, dispelling or at least diminishing concern that the course might pose a problem. A stayer with uncanny versatility, he brings the formidable combination of tactical speed and a strong finishing kick that puts him squarely in the frame.

The winner of the Breeders’ Cup Ladies Classic a year ago over this course and champion American older mare of 2008 has faced the starter just four times as a 5-year-old and she has raced in form measurably below her best in the two most recent victories at the expense of overmatched competition. Despite her unsullied longevity, the long-striding mare with a reliable and devastating late run, has not faced males nor attempted 10 furlongs and is asked for much in what will probably be the final run of her career. The daughter of Street Cry has been sharp in recent trackwork but whether her best is good enough to overcome unfamiliar circumstances and appreciably more formidable company than she has kept of late remains a question. She is the anticipated favourite and vulnerable in that role.

The Henry Cecil trainee has a running style that should suit the tight course but has a self-punishing stride and no established form on firm ground in Europe. Has sufficient raw ability to pose a certain threat if he responds favourably.

A more realistic if unflattering third in the Goodwood last time out but will encourage longshot players with recent California form far better than any he showed on the East Coast.

The son of A.P. Indy has shown progressively stronger form with each start, continues to show strength in morning trackwork and another advance will make him a formidable presence here.

His three defeats this season came behind the redoubtable, recently retired Sea The Stars, perhaps the best thoroughbred in the world. He has overcome chronic hoof problems and an affinity for the synthetic course in not established but Raven’s Pass, last year’s winner of the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes, won this race over the O’Brien-trained Henrythenavigator, who was runner-up in both races. A high cruising speed and stamina to stay 10 furlongs will serve this horse well and he would certainly be no surprise.

Has not raced since but apparently is not hampered by the lack of racing. Though he has trained with enthusiasm at Santa Anita, the son of Distorted Humor lacks Grade I credentials and has not run a winning race at 10 furlongs.

Returned at midsummer in a Grade 2 with a record-setting sprint win over 7 furlongs at Saratoga and may have been asked for too much when sent to challenge Summer Bird less than a month later in the 10-furlong Travers Stakes. The son of Elusive Quality tired late after mounting a mild threat. Sent to contest the pace in the Jockey Club Gold Cup last month, he had no answer when challenged by Summer Bird. He is a high class colt in improving form but faces a daunting assignment here.
