Del Mar Race 5 - Race 5 - Maiden Special Weight
MODUS BESTIA (5) returns after ten weeks in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a ninth over 1006m at Churchill Downs (Turf). Ready for a bold run. LANNISTER (2) is a colt by Not This Time from the stakes-winner Wexx on debut. Strong profile and should play a role in the finish. VASA (4) has not raced since his debut on May 10 over 1308m at Santa Anita (Dirt) when he finished fourth, beaten 8 lengths. Should be thereabouts. CORNHUSKERCHRIS (9) was beaten 7 lengths into sixth in a 1811m contest at Santa Anita at his latest appearance. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
