Del Mar Race 2 - Race 2 - Mdn Special Weight
BOGARTS BUCCHERO (5) progressed nicely last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished 2 lengths from the winner in second over 1207m at Santa Anita Turf after being in the firing line on the bend. Meeting a deeper field this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. RUNNING SPARTAN (3) improved last start to finish third over 1207m at Santa Anita Turf after being prominent at the bend. Taking on a better line-up this time but he deserves plenty of thought. CAPTAIN SHREVE (8) returns from a spell of three-and-a-half months and has his first try on a turf track. Opened last campaign with a second over 1308m at Santa Anita (Dirt). Should be poised just off the lead. One of the main contenders. FUZZY STARE (7) has been freshened up since a disappointing seventh four weeks ago over 1609m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Should improve and worth considering.

Comes here off a 53-day let-up. Last start set the pace for much of the race 3rd of 9 at Santa Anita Turf on May 31 over 1207m, 2.5 len behind Maximon carrying 57kg at $5.20. The start before that ran second last of 7 at Santa Anita Turf on May 17 over 1609m, 12 len behind Dreamrider carrying 57kg at $4. Good effort last start and can build on that performance.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. Resumes off a 39 day letup. First-up ran second last of 9 at Santa Anita Turf on May 30 over 1609m, 7 len behind Tribalism with 54.5kg at $35.90. Last start made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 11 at Santa Anita Turf on June 14 over 1207m, 2 len behind Legal Heir carrying 55kg at $46.60. Racing well. Has strong claims.

Back from a long spell. Finished off last preparation 5th of 8 at Los Alamitos on December 7 over 1308m, 16 len behind Decapo carrying 55.5kg at $20.90. When resuming last campaign ran second last in a small field at Santa Anita Turf on September 26 over 1207m, 6 len behind Mescalero carrying 55.5kg at $15.70. Prefer to see how he returns.
