DEL MAR
Race 1

Win and place 6
Race 2
No. 4 Lady Shazzam really never got untracked in her comeback race on the grass and now is dropped to the bottom, is stretched out and gets Bejarano. No. 6 Unusual Darling ran good in her last start going 1 1/16 and this mile race will suit her perfectly. No. 10 Freckles Galore has had her chances but will be part of the trifecta. 4-6-10
Tri box 4-6-10 and a key Q 6 with 4-10
Race 3
Its been a long time between wins for No. 6 Star Nicholas but this 9yo gelding looks to have found a spot for the score. No. 3 Siempre Mio drops in class and gets back to sprinting and Bejarano gets the leg up. 3-6
Race 4
No. 1 Hidden Quest is usually right there but just seems to hang. Maybe the switch to Del Mar will get him home on top. No. 5 You’re Joking drops trying to cash. No. 10 A.P. Corsair exits our HTW list and gets a better distance. 1-5-10
Exacta box 1-5-10 and win and place 10
