Del Mar Race 7 - Race 7 - Allowance Optional Claiming

VENTRY STRAND (10) resumes from a spell of nine weeks after closing off last preparation with three consecutive minor placings. One of the leading chances. DOUBLE JAB (9) registered a strong win at Santa Anita Turf two runs ago. Not disgraced last time out when prominent at the corner before finishing second over 1308m at Santa Anita Turf, beaten 1.3 lengths. Meets some better types this time but he has the ability to bounce back. KNOWN IDEA (1) is back after a break of three-and-a-half months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1207m at Del Mar. Yet to win first up but generally runs well with two minor placings from four tries. Has found the right race and is worth including. ALLEQUIN SUMMER (3) led throughout last start to score an effortless 2.5 lengths win over 1609m at Santa Anita Turf (Turf). Another bold showing expected.
