Del Mar Race 8

Mdn Special Weight

Prize Money: $116,110

FLASH OF LIGHTNING (9) made it four minor placings in a row last start when second over 1609m at Santa Anita Turf (Turf). Wide draw and will need a good steer from Juan J Hernandez. Facing a tougher assignment but he is good enough to take this out. BIG VENGEANCE (5) is still a maiden after nine starts. Managed to fill a minor placing at Santa Anita Turf (Turf) two starts back before finishing fifth over 1609m at Santa Anita Turf (Turf) last time. Cannot be left out of calculations. BENNY'S PUZZLE (7) finished eighth over 1609m at Santa Anita Turf (Turf) at his most recent appearance on April 24. Can make his presence felt. FEELING LUCKY (6) turned in a moderate effort on debut last start when seventh at Santa Anita Turf (Turf) over 1308m, beaten 5.5 lengths. Can improve and is a top-three chance.

Racing well recently. Comes off a 60 day let-up. Last start held ground to the line 2nd of 11 at Santa Anita Turf on May 25 over 1308m, 0.8 len behind Moment Of Valor carrying 57kg at $8.10. The run before that ran on from midfield; 2nd of 9 at Santa Anita Turf on April 24 over 1609m, 0.5 len behind Nineteenth Hole carrying 57kg at $10.60. Not far away last time. Worth plenty of thought.

Form hard to fault. Comes here off a 42-day let-up. At the latest run sat on the pace when 3rd of 9 at Santa Anita Turf on June 12 over 1308m, 3 len behind Owl with 57kg at $6.40. The run before that sat on the pace when 3rd of 11 at Santa Anita Turf on May 25 over 1308m, 2 len behind Moment Of Valor carrying 57kg at $14.80. Should go well in this line up.

Racing well recently. Comes off a 62 day let-up. Most recently 2nd of 11 at Santa Anita Turf on May 23 over 1609m, 1.3 len behind Oracle Of Paradise with 55.5kg at $3.60. The start before that 3rd of 8 at Santa Anita Turf on April 19 over 1609m, 0.6 len behind John Metcalfe carrying 55.5kg at $2.90. Nice effort last time so worth following up.

Comes here off a 60-day let-up. Most recently 8th of 11 at Santa Anita Turf on May 25 over 1308m, 12 len behind Moment Of Valor carrying 57kg at $4.60. The run before that came from midfield; 2nd of 10 at Santa Anita Turf on April 26 over 1207m, 1.0 len behind Jimmy Winkfield with 57kg at $7.30. Will need plenty of improvement to feature.
