MACDARA (8) turned in a modest performance when seventh last time out over 1f180yards at The Albuquerque Downs Racetrack & Casino, beaten 3.5 lengths. That followed a win at The Albuquerque Downs Racetrack & Casino at the previous outing. Finds a more suitable contest and can get the job done. BILLIONS (4) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well when returning from a break last time at The Albuquerque Downs Racetrack & Casino (Dirt), finishing second and only half a length from the winner at the end of 1f180yards after being in the firing line on the turn. It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is right in contention. WICKED REWARD (12) has been thereabouts since getting off the mark five runs back, the latest effort a third over 1f130yards at this track (Dirt). Winning rider Raul Padilla Jr Hernandez stays aboard. Sure to be competitive. A TRES OF GOOD CANDY (5) finished seventh over 1½f at Lone Star Park when resuming last start, beaten only 1.5 lengths. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
