Del Mar Race 2 - Race 2 - Mdn Special Weight
LET HER FLY (4) went forward last start over 1609m at this track (Turf) and held on well for second, beaten 0.8 lengths. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. QUEENOFTHEWILD (5) wasn't far off maiden success before a ten weeks break, finishing the prep with a minor placing at Navan. First try at this longer trip. Has ability and can hit the ground running this campaign. JANIE NOT JEANIE (1) is a two-start maiden who placed on debut then could only manage fifth last start, beaten 9 lengths over 1006m at Del Mar (Dirt). Strong figure from the debut is the right form reference. VENDETTA (2) is a two-year-old filly on debut from the stable of Richard E Mandella. By Curlin from Avenge. Top-three chance.
