FAVORITE REGRETS (4) showed good early dash and raced on the speed last start before fading to finish 2.5 lengths back in fifth over 1f130yards at Turf Paradise (Dirt). Will go forward and is expected to be in the finish. KASH N CHECKS (10) showed good early speed when resuming last start before boxing on well and finishing third, beaten 1.3 lengths, over this trip at Zia Park (Dirt). Beautifully placed and is sure to be there at the finish. AJ GOLDEN CASH (6) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 1f180yards at Los Alamitos Qh (Dirt) after being in contention all the way. Taking on a better line-up this time but he deserves plenty of thought. MAGICAL MARFA (1) has been kept fresh since finishing fourth over 1f180yards at Zia Park (Dirt) six-and-a-half weeks ago. Was a determined winner two runs back. Top-three chance.
