Del Mar Race 3 - Race 3 - Mdn Special Weight
REPO (7) looks close to a win after finishing in the money at both runs, the latest when second at Los Alamitos (Dirt) over 1006m. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Leading contender. LITTLE KING (5) was prominent from the outset on debut last start and held on well for third, beaten 1.5 lengths, over 1006m at this track (Dirt). Has upside and can open his account. SCAM ALERT (4) finished 3 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1006m at this track four weeks ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Strong top-three chance. ANGEL'S EMBER (1) is appearing for the first time. By Smokem and comes from the Antonio Garcia stable. Worth watching for a betting push.

At debut, sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 7 at this track on July 19 over 1006m, 1.5 len behind Phone Booth carrying 55.5kg at $14.40. Can build upon that bright start to his career.

Had two starts to date. When well in the market at debut, 3rd in a small field at Santa Anita Turf on May 31 over 1006m, 8 len behind Shadow Nation carrying 54.5kg at $4.20. Second-up 2nd of 7 at Los Alamitos on June 28 over 1006m, 0.8 len behind Fumano's Fire with 55.5kg at $2. Definite winning chance.

Comes here off a 29-day let-up. At the latest run sat on the pace when 3rd of 9 at this track on July 18 over 1006m, 9 len behind Net Par with 55.5kg at $36.50. The race before that 6th of 8 at Santa Anita on June 14 over 1006m, 11 len behind King Kameha carrying 54.5kg at $12.60. This looks too tough.
