6 Furlongs Dirt Stake Purse $125.000 Open 3 Year Olds.

1st Comanche Smoke Panionios Racing Lezcano J

Back to a sprint trip and with a new stable, this one looked back to his best today with a smooth half length win. A little outpaced early on, he picked up willingly when asked and always looked like picking them up. He had some useful juvenile form when with Mb Stables and was let go for a bargain looking $50.000 less than six weeks ago especially when you consider he almost won the grade one Breeders Futurity as a two-year-old.

2nd Out Of Touch TwinTowersRacing Davis K

Went to win his race at the furlong marker, but the winner was too strong in the run to the line, and he had to settle for second. Ridden a little quieter today, he did well at big odds, and one feels a win in a race like this won’t be long in coming.

3rd Sanity Maletto Vives S

In only his second career start, he ran a cracker stalking the pace and then getting beaten by the closers through the final furlong. This was his first start for a while, and you would expect natural improvement making him an exciting prospect for his new stable.

4th Tank Commander Diablo Diablo Kocakaya G

Went pretty hard from the outside gate but was never able to set up a comfortable lead and in the end, he ran out of puff down the stretch. A game effort but the draw beat him today.
