Customer Base - started two straight Grade 2 races toward the end of 2011 - a fifth in the Golden Rod Stakes and an eleventh in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf but has not fared all that well in 2012 except for an Allowance Optional Claiming score two back. She had a fourth in an Allowance here, an eighth in the Grade 2 Hollywood Oaks and a fifth last time out in the minor Sandy Blue Handicap. Customer Base has not been great recently but her Allowance score two back breeds some optimism.

Best Present Ever - made her graded stakes debut with a respectable third in the American Oaks July 14 but was ninth in her next start at the Grade 1 Del Mar Oaks. Last time out she bounced back with an OK second in the John Deere California Cup Distaff Stakes here October 13.
