CORY LOVES RAIN (7) is yet to break through after five starts. Last time out was fourth, beaten 5 lengths, over 6½f at this track (Dirt). Has good early toe so she should be handy in the run. Likely to feature. KATZIE BABY (10) was in the firing line all the way and fought on for third last start over 6½f at The Albuquerque Downs Racetrack & Casino (Dirt), making it two minor placings in a row. Will need a good ride from Aldo Arboleda off the awkward draw. Steps up a level but she is worth serious consideration. MIDNIGHT SUSI (4) ran below expectations last time at The Albuquerque Downs Racetrack & Casino (Dirt), finishing fifth and beaten 11 lengths starting at 6/1. Taking on a better field but she is good enough to take this out. LA DELHOMME'S SHOW (3) was in the firing line on the corner and finished third last start over 5f at this track (Dirt), beaten 8 lengths. Will be rock-hard fit. Nicely placed to run well again.
