DUCHECK JQM (5) stuck on well when resuming last start to finish second over 1f80yards in stakes class at this track (Dirt) after showing good early speed. This is an easier assignment and can take this out. RIOS RENEGADE (1) finished seventh two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1f80yards at Los Alamitos Qh, beaten only 0.3 lengths after being in the firing line on the turn. Meeting a deeper field this time but he is good enough to play a major role. SHENANIGANS CHICK (3) went to the paddock after scoring at her only appearance last prep eight months ago over 1f130yards at Ruidoso Downs (Dirt). One to consider. EL DASHINGSEPARATIST (7) returned from a lay-off two weeks ago when he was beaten 4 lengths into sixth over 1f80yards at this track. Fitter so anticipating a better run this time.
