Light the City - will hit the track for the fifth time for trainer Jerry Hollendorfer off a disappointing fifth in her graded stakes debut - as favorite in the Grade 2 Santa Ynez Stakes here January 3. Before that was an OK third behind Maybellene and Achiever's Legacy in the listed Desi Arnaz Stakes at Del Mar in November and a nice win in her second career start - the minor Anoakia Stakes here in October. Light the City looks to break through in graded stakes company and around two turns for the first time with Kent Desormeaux guiding her from the outside post.

She has two wins and a third place finish in six career starts and will have Drayden Van Dyke guiding her from gate 4 as she looks to avenge an ugly graded stakes debut.

Majestic Presence - will race for the seventh time for trainer Jerry Hollendorfer having recorded one win and two third place finishes. Last time out was a fourth in the Grade 1 Starlet Stakes at Los Alamitos December 13 which followed a respectable third, behind Take Charge Brandi in the Delta Downs Princess, a disappointing ninth of 12 in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile, an OK fourth in the Grade 1 Chandelier Stakes at Santa Anita in September and a maiden score in August.
