APICASSO JESS (10) got off the mark when resuming from a lay-off over 1f31yards at Retama Park (Dirt) last start, scoring by 2.5 lengths. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Nicely placed to double the win tally. Group 3 winner YIPPEE KI YEY (9) finished 2.5 lengths from the winner in fourth last start over 2f at The Albuquerque Downs Racetrack & Casino, an improvement on his seventh at The Albuquerque Downs Racetrack & Casino the run before. Nicely placed to take this out. CUZ (3) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing second last time out over 1f180yards at Retama Park (Dirt). Will enjoy a drop in class so he is likely to play a big role. WOOPAA (8) is back from a lay-off. Closed last prep in sparkling form with three consecutive wins, the latest over 1f130yards at Fair Meadows on July 6. Cordarelton J Benn has been the pilot at her last three wins. Worth including in calculations.
