MUCHO GUSTO
Trainer: Bob Baffert
Last race: Sept. 20, race 3
Finish: First by four lengths
Beyer: 78
Another 2-year-old debut winner from a deep stable, this son of Mucho Macho Man broke from the rail, set the pace under pressure, and widened late. No telling how good.

ENVY
Trainer: Anthony Saavedra
Last race: Sept. 20, race 7
Finish: Fifth by 4 1/4 lengths
Beyer: 56
This 3-year-old debut filly from a winning female family was not asked for speed, lagged in last place, then finished well to split the field in a better-than-it-looked Cal-bred debut.

MY MANDATE
Trainer: Mark Glatt
Last race: Sept. 22, race 6
Finish: Sixth by 20 3/4 lengths
Beyer: 40
A second-start 2-year-old in a restricted stakes race, this blinkers-on colt was slammed at the break, hounded through fast pace, and tired. This race was a toss, follow vs. maidens.

VERY VERY STELLA
Trainer: Dan Blacker
Last race: Sept. 23, race 4
Finish: First by two lengths
Beyer: 88
Stretching out first start off the claim, veteran scored sharp victory in fast $32k claiming route. Tough right back in mid-level claiming route; this division usually has small fields.
