Del Mar Race 4 - Race 4 - Claiming

NASTY HABIT (5) finished 15 lengths away in seventh last start over 1308m at Churchill Downs (Dirt) in a disappointing performance. Too good to dismiss after one bad run. DONCIC (4) never threatened last time when fifth over 1308m at Santa Anita Turf (Turf). Freshened up and coming back in trip. Can bounce back. GREGORY'S PRIDE (7) was heavily backed and justified the support when resuming last start over 1207m at Santa Anita Turf (Turf), scoring by 0.8 lengths. Generally runs well second-up and this looks well within his grasp. CODE DUELLO (1) was well fancied but below best latest, pulled up at Santa Anita Turf (Turf) but has a new rider this time. Gets chance to bounce back.

Comes off a 36 day let-up. Last start didn't finish the race at Santa Anita Turf June 11 over 1308m. The race before that won by 1.5 len at Santa Anita Turf May 8 over 1308m defeating Enterdadragon carrying 56kg at $1.80. Capable of a strong showing.

Racing well recently. At the latest run set the pace for much of the race 2nd of 8 at Los Alamitos on June 28 over 1106m, 1.75 len behind March Of Time with 57kg at $15.80. Before that 2nd in a small field at Los Alamitos Qh in LR on June 14 over 914m, 0.5 len behind Devil Be Me carrying 57kg at $3.80. Not far off the winner latest and looks a genuine hope.

Second run back. Comes off a 40-day let-up. First-up after two months won by 0.8 len at Santa Anita Turf June 7 over 1207m defeating Gazon carrying 57kg at $3.50. Previously second-up 2nd of 10 at Santa Anita Turf on April 5 over 1207m, nose behind Smart Code carrying 56kg at $4.80. Strips fitter and is an excellent winning chance.
