Retama Park Race 1 - Firecracker Distaff S. Stakes
RB BADONKADONK (3) wasted no time getting off the mark as favourite on debut over 1207m at this track (Dirt) two weeks ago. Has plenty of upside and should go on with it. WMA MANILLA (7) wasted no time getting off the mark on debut over 1006m at Sam Houston Park (Dirt) three-and-a-half months ago and has not appeared since. Likely improver who should run well again. SUN THE SANDS (2) impressed when successful as favourite on debut over 1006m at Sam Houston Park (Dirt) four months ago and has not raced since. Has upside and is among the chances again. HIGHH STAKES (6) scored on debut last start over 1006m at Sam Houston Park on 15/05/2025, finishing half a length ahead of the nearest rival. One of the key chances. Something for the Multiples: BURNING JEWELS (1)
