Del Mar Race 8

Native Diver S. Stakes

Prize Money: $152,672

NEVADA BEACH (3) is a talented colt who was tested in tougher class last time when seventh over 2012m in the G1 Breeders' Cup Classic at this track (Dirt). Reunites with jockey J J Hernandez who knows him well, including two wins while aboard. Fitter and a likely improver. INDISPENSABLE (1) stuck on well last start to finish third over 1609m in the G3 Ack Ack Handicap at Churchill Downs (Dirt) after showing good early speed. Worth noting Hector Isaac Berrios goes aboard. Has the talent to figure prominently. BRITISH ISLES (4) showed good pace over 1811m at Santa Anita (Turf) last time and went on to score by a nose. Steps up a level but he is capable of running a bold race. WESTWOOD (2) won his maiden three starts back and is nearing another victory with placings at his last two runs, most recently when second over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Should be poised just off the lead. Deserves respect on best figures.
