Delta Downs Race 8 - 1 1/2f Hcap
LEGACY FAVORITE (2) looks close to a win after finishing in the money at both runs, the latest when second at Turf Paradise (Dirt) over 274m. Well placed and a great chance to break through. CRYSTAL BOI (5) fought on well to finish second last start over 320m at Sam Houston Park (Dirt), beaten half a length when fresh from a spell as favourite. Perfectly placed and is sure to give an excellent account. FAVORESON MV (3) is a two-start maiden who placed on debut then could only manage eighth last start, beaten 1.75 lengths over 302m at this track (Dirt). Backmarker who gets home hard. Debut run was good and he looks a great chance to open the account. KVN AND CANDY (4) was in contention on the bend and finished third last time over 302m at this track (Dirt), beaten 0.8 lengths. Will trim down following recent racing. Sure to be thereabouts.
