Retama Park Race 5 - San Marcos Stakes
Grade 1 winner THE GRAND LEGEND (3) showed good pace and went on to score by 6 lengths when resuming last time out over 796m at Sam Houston Park (Dirt). It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is good enough to take this out. Grade 1 placegetter ROCK YA LATER (5) showed good early muster and fought on to finish second last start over 796m in Group 1 grade at Remington Park (Dirt). Faces an easier assignment so he is sure to be right there at the finish. GHOST BEAR (4) finished fifth last time out over 796m at Sam Houston Park, beaten 6 lengths. Hard to knock. SUPERFRAGILISTIC (8) is dropping back in class after finishing third last start over 796m in Listed grade at Sam Houston Park (Dirt). Likely to be about the money again.

First up last campaign fifth of 7 at Sam Houston Park June 2 2023 over 796m, 6 len behind My Famous Troubadour with 58kg at $8.60. This looks a stern test.

Grade 1 placegetter. Useful gelding. At the latest run came from midfield; 2nd of 7 at Remington Park in G1 on June 1 over 796m, 1.75 len behind Markus Aurelius carrying 57kg at $9.70. The race before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 7 at Remington Park on May 17 over 796m, 1.0 len behind Big Lew Love with 57kg at $2.40. Progressing well and a win is on the cards.
