Retama Park Race 3 - Race 3 - Claiming
DLJFAMOUSFREIGNTRAIN (4) resumes from a spell of ten weeks and is having his first outing under new trainer Jose Ivan Martinez. Finished seventh at Delta Downs (Dirt) over 302m at the opening run last time in work. Winning chance. MR DASHING YESS (10) progressed nicely last time out to finish just half a length from the winner in second over 320m at Sam Houston Park after being in the firing line on the turn. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. HESABABYCRY (7) returned from a spell eight weeks ago when he was beaten 2.5 lengths into seventh over 302m at Sam Houston Park. Second up record is sound. Tackling a more suitable race so he is a leading contender. GOOD FRIDAY PATRONA (3) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 229m at Sam Houston Park, beaten 2 lengths. Likely improver with top-three prospects.

Third-up today and won third-up previously. First-up rolled along in front then was edged out late 3rd of 7 at Sam Houston Park on May 14 over 302m, 0.8 len behind Sloww Downn with 56.5kg at $8.50. Last start sat behind the speed prior to fading to run last of 7 at Sam Houston Park on June 13 over 274m, 2.75 len behind Regal King carrying 56.5kg at $4.10.
