9/1
Very smart performer who has won 4 of her 5 starts, latest in 8-runner Grade 2 Zenyatta Stakes at Santa Anita (11/10, by 2¼ lengths from As Time Goes ) in October. Progressive so tough to rule out.

Very smart performer who won Grade 3 Shuvee Handicap at Saratoga in July and Grade 2 Beldame Stakes at Belmont (7/10, by 4¼ lengths) in October. Yet to finish outside top 3 so merits consideration.

Smart performer who brought up the hat-trick when landing Gran Premio Criadores (11-runner event, 11/10, by head from Soviet Catch) in May. Has left Nicolas Martin Ferro, but looks up against it.

2/1
High-class performer who has tasted defeat once in her last 7 starts. Completed the 5-timer in a typically straightforward manner at Keeneland last month and rates the one they have to beat.

Very smart filly who put up a career best when winning 4-runner Grade 2 Beldame Stakes at Belmont (9f) in August. Runner-up at Belmont since but likely to find a few too good in the company.

Very smart performer who has won 4 out of 5 starts this year, latest in Grade 3 Locust Grove Stakes in September. Leading claims on paper and she should be in the shake-up.

Useful performer who won listed races at Oi in January, Kawasaki in March and Mombetsu (by ½ length from Rinen Fashion) in August. Faces a stiff task here, however.

Very smart filly who was prolific in her ealry days but not tasted victory in her last 6 outings. Runner-up in Grade 1 last time but percentage call to look elsewhere.

23:00 Del Mar - 6 November 2021 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

A few in with a shout in this fascinating renewal but LETRUSKA continues to go from strength to strength this season. Fausto Gutierrez's mare could prove a tough nut to crack if able to dictate matters, so she's taken to bring up an impressive 6-timer. Shedaresthedevil, Private Mission and Royal Flag rate as serious threats to the selection however, and they're feared most in that order.

  1. LETRUSKA (USA)
  2. SHEDARESTHEDEVIL (USA)
  3. PRIVATE MISSION (USA)
