Del Mar Race 2 - Race 2 - Mdn Special Weight
AUTOMATIC PRESS (5) went forward last time and looked a chance on the corner but tired to finish fifth over 1609m at this track (Turf). Well placed on this occasion and gets his chance to break the ice. WILDCATTER (4) faced the starter for the first time and finished fourth last start at this track (Turf) over 1609m, beaten 3 lengths. Expected to be very competitive. CLEAR AND PRESENT (7) was safely held on debut last start, finishing 11 lengths behind the winner in sixth over 1106m at Del Mar (Dirt). Will take a lot from that experience. Expected to be competitive. ITINERARY (2) is a two-year-old colt on debut from the stable of M W McCarthy. By Quality Road from Factorintheheat. Pay to watch for any positive betting moves.
