Retama Park Race 2 - Race 2 - Claiming
BEAU DIDDLY (4) produced a reasonable effort after being in the firing line on the turn to finish half a length away in second last start over 320m at Sam Houston Park. That followed a first-up win at Sam Houston Park. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. CHECK OUT JESS (3) returned from a spell two months ago when he was beaten 2.5 lengths into ninth over 302m at Sam Houston Park. Tackling a more suitable race so he is a leading player. SOME FINE CANDY (5) was in the money two starts back at Sam Houston Park but was unable to repeat the effort last time when seventh, beaten 7 lengths, at Sam Houston Park (Dirt) over 796m after being in the firing line on the corner. Tackling a more suitable race this time so she is likely to play a big role. DUKE WATTERS (1) showed good early speed and raced just off the lead before lifting to score by half a length over 320m at Sam Houston Park (Dirt) last start. Should give a great sight.

Comes here off a 48-day let-up. At the latest run raced on the pace before fading to run last of 7 at Sam Houston Park on June 12 over 796m, 7 len behind Barbie Doll Special carrying 58kg at $21.50. The run before that 3rd in a small field at Sam Houston Park on May 30 over 503m, 1.75 len behind Rude Gurl with 58kg at $9.10. Can bounce back after a modest effort last time.
