Del Mar Race 8 - Race 8 - Allowance Optional Claiming
NATIVE LAND (4) turned in a fine effort to score by half a length at this track and distance when first-up from a break last time out. Likely to be there at the finish again. MAGNIFY (7) is racing well and has registered five minor placings in a row, last time out finishing third over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. PURE MADNESS (5) showed good early muster and fought on to finish second last start over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. SANTARENA (9) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at this track (Dirt), finishing fourth and only 2.5 lengths from the winner at the end of 1308m. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
