Retama Park Race 9 - Maiden
CALL ME RAVEN (2) will find this a little easier than his second on debut five-and-a-half weeks ago, beaten 0.3 lengths at the end of 302m at Sunray Park (Dirt). Handy draw will assist so he shouldn't be a maiden for long. TRES WINES (7) was in contention on the bend and ran a better race last start to finish a close third over 320m at Sam Houston Park after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Likely improver with strong prospects. KINGS VOLCOM YG (4) stepped out on his debut over 274m at Sam Houston Park (Dirt) three weeks ago and finished eighth, beaten 3.5 lengths. Should be thereabouts. PYC TIME TO FLY (5) is on debut. By Pyc Prize Time and comes from the Joe Uriegas stable. Watch the market closely.
