Retama Park Race 3 - Race 3 - Mdn
BIG SKY COWBOY (4) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 274m at Sam Houston Park (Dirt). Ideally placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. MR NANDIN (9) resumed from a spell last start with a sound third over 274m at Sam Houston Park (Dirt) after being prominent at the turn. Ready to go a couple better. DM SOPHIE CARTEL (8) was in the firing line on the corner and finished third last time over 274m at Sam Houston Park (Dirt), beaten 0.6 lengths. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a major role. GOT CARTEL COWBOY (7) finished second first-up at Sam Houston Park then couldn't repeat the dose last time when fourth at Sam Houston Park (Dirt) over 274m when beaten 1.75 lengths. Has ability and definitely worth including.
