1st Shericka Winning Link Stables Corrales G

Used the wide gate speed push to get away quickly and never really looked in danger of being beaten coming home a length clear at the post. This is three wins from four now for this small framed filly who is shaping up to be a very nice sprinting type. Carried more weight and went a fair bit quicker than she did in her last race defeat so your guess is as good as mine as to what happened in that race other than she was stalking from a wide gate and that can often see a horse flatten out a bit down the stretch. The owner bred this one and once the excitement of wining this good prize dies down, they will enjoy planning a career that could involve some nice races.

Stayed on nicely and really looks the type that will improve over a bit more ground. This was a nice step up from her maiden win and it seems the juveniles from this stable are all riding the wave of success at the moment.

3rd Chilukki Pan Farms Centeno D E

Got too far back and though she made nice ground never got in a blow at the winner. I think ultimately, she will improve over longer trips and if that is the case this was a better effort than her finishing position looks.

4th Wings Sim Speed Stable Lopez P

Ran a solid enough race to take fourth but was just staying on at the one pace.
