Del Mar Race 3

Mdn Special Weight

Prize Money: $92,461

OCEAN CLUB (6) was in the firing line on the turn and progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 1207m at Santa Anita Turf after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. GALLANT JACK (3) stepped out on his debut over 1207m at Los Alamitos (Dirt) eight weeks ago and finished fifth, beaten 9 lengths. Will have a lot more to offer this time. SAVVY MOTIVE (1) faced the starter for the first time last start and was just fair in finishing seventh at Santa Anita Turf (Turf) over 1207m, beaten 5 lengths. Blinkers applied for the second-up run. Worth including. JET E Z (4) is facing the starter for the first time. By Essential Quality and is out of the Peter Miller stable. Pay to watch for any positive betting moves.

At debut, ran last of 8 at Santa Anita on October 9 over 1308m, 14 len behind Fractious carrying 55.5kg at $21.30. Capable of plenty of improvement.

Was well-supported at debut, ran last in a small field at Los Alamitos on September 18 over 1207m, 9 len behind Mystic Ride with 55.5kg at $3.20. Will have benefited from that outing and is likely to measure up.
