Emerald Downs Race 8 - Race 8 - Mdn Claiming
ONE PHIL (2) ran well on debut last start to finish third over 1106m at this track (Dirt) in a tougher race. Will benefit from that experience so he should pay to follow. BULL TIZ (3) finished out of the money on debut two starts back then he got a long way back and was beaten 9 lengths when eighth in a 1308m contest at Santa Anita Turf five-and-a-half weeks ago. Has the ability to find the winners' list. HIGHER PERFORMANCE (1) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1207m at this track, beaten 2 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. BOOMING BERNARDO (5) could only manage to finish fourth, beaten 3.5 lengths, at his latest appearance over 1006m at Turf Paradise (Dirt). Rates highly in this field and can turn things around.
