MONIKER (5) made progress last time out, finishing 2 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 5f at Zia Park after being prominent at the corner. Has the talent to find the winners' list. BETTOR TRIP NICK (4) was last at the races when he saluted over 5½f at The Albuquerque Downs Racetrack & Casino (Dirt) on October 26. Rates highly and should take some beating. RUNNINGINTHERAIN (8) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he got a long way back over 4½f at Zia Park, beaten 2. 75 lengths into fourth. Has raced two times at this course and distance and is yet to be beaten. Tackling a more suitable race this time so he is a major player. ONE MIGHTY EFFORT (3) was unplaced two runs back when fresh from a lay-off then again missed the frame last start over 2f at Zia Park, beaten half a length into fifth. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
