Delta Downs Race 5 - 5F Stakes
ONE DEAL (7) was in a rearwards position on the turn last time out before finishing 9 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1006m at this track (Dirt). Among the top chances in what looks a most suitable race. MISCHIEVOUS SMILE (5) is back at the races for the first time since April 24. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1408m at this track. Has ability and should be right in the finish. ABOUT THE BUSINESS (2) finished second last start over 1006m at this track (Dirt) to make it seven minor placings from 15 runs. Goes well here with three top-three finishes to his credit. Right in the mix. SENOR SMOKE (6) was in contention on the turn and finished third last time over 1006m at this track (Dirt) when resuming from a spell, beaten 5 lengths. Will trim down second-up. Placed to advantage so expect another forward showing.
