PAINTED DIVA (4) improved sharply on her fourth two starts back at Retama Park (Dirt) with success over 1½f at Retama Park (Dirt) six weeks ago, getting home by 0.3 lengths after being in contention on the corner. No reason she cannot salute again. IF I WAS A COWBOY (6) went forward last start over 1½f at Retama Park (Dirt) and held on well for third, beaten 1.5 lengths. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot salute. Group 2 placegetter IMA CHILI (10) is ready to win after another minor placing last start, finishing third over 1f130yards at Retama Park (Dirt) when he was always up in the leading division. Has the class to figure prominently. VP WIRED TO WIN (8) was beaten 2 lengths into seventh in a 1f80yards contest at this track at her latest appearance. Well placed to bounce back.
