BRAVEN (5) returns from a lay-off of six months. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when ninth over 1½f at Sunland Park (Dirt). Under the care of new trainer Martin Orona this prep. Backmarker who keeps coming. Will prove tough to beat. HOME TOWN ROLL (8) stalked the pace when resuming at this track and trip last start then worked to the line steadily to finish second. Generally runs well when second up. Among the winning hopes. HF MY FABULOUS BOY (4) finished second at this track and distance at his last appearance 11 weeks ago. Looks a strong top-three prospect. RR FAMOUS TACHA (6) got off the mark when resuming from a lay-off over 1f180yards at this track (Dirt) last start, scoring by 0. 3 lengths. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Daniel Antonio Torres was in the saddle on that occasion and retains the mount. Must be respected now that the penny has dropped.
