Multiple Group 2 winner DK MARNEY JESS (8) scored by 1.5 lengths last start at Retama Park (Dirt) over 1½f after she was in the firing line on the corner. Has a very strong record at this journey, scoring on five occasions from five starts. Nestor Duran who has scored on her three times retains the mount. Expecting a bold showing. EMBERS TIME (3) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 1.75 lengths away in third over 1½f at Retama Park (Dirt) when she was always up in the leading division. Beautifully placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. STETSONN (1) was in control from the outset to score on debut over 2f at The Albuquerque Downs Racetrack & Casino (Dirt) five weeks ago. Sure to make his presence felt again. IM MOMS FAVORITE (6) pushed forward from a wide draw last start and kept going to win by 1.3 lengths over 1f80yards at Retama Park (Dirt). Luis L Vivanco has been the pilot at her last two wins. Not to be discounted.
