Surface: D
TUSK (9) was allowed to drift back from an outside draw last time but found the line strongly to finish fifth, beaten 1. 5 lengths, over 1½f at The Albuquerque Downs Racetrack & Casino (Dirt). Well placed and the one to beat. LONDON LIGHTS (11) started this prep with a win two runs ago. Not disgraced last time out when seventh over 1f130yards at this track, beaten 2 lengths after she worked home well. Has the class to return to the winner's list. TACTICAL FEATURE (1) lines up for the first time since October 4. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1f180yards at Sam Houston Park. Definite top-three chance. DM SPECIAL HAWK (7) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing fourth at this track (Dirt) over 1f180yards. Going up a level this time but he deserves another chance.
