Retama Park Race 2 - Race 2 - Mdn
YM FLYIN (7) drifted back over 366m here last time before winding up late to finish fourth, beaten 1.75 lengths. Will prove hard to hold out. POLITICAL ASSASIN (10) is a 13-start maiden who almost broke the ice last time out when a close second over 402m at this track (Dirt) after being in the firing line on the turn. Likely improver with strong prospects. SHES TEAM WILD (1) resumes today after filling a minor placing at her only appearance last prep at Lone Star Park (Dirt) over 366m on September 25. Has switched to the Aracely Mejia yard over the break. Should park just off the speed. Will give backers a great sight. TAKEMTOTHASTATION (8) progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 402m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. This looks a good race for him and he is one of the key runners.

Back from a long spell. Finished off last preparation 2nd of 10 at Lone Star Park on September 25 over 366m, 1.5 len behind Ajs Flashnthachicks with 58kg at $21.20. When resuming last campaign 6th of 10 at Remington Park on March 29 2025 over 402m, 2.75 len behind First Cartel Powwer carrying 57.5kg at $59.50. This is an ideal race to kick off. Top hope.

Most recently 7th of 10 at this track on July 25 over 302m, 5 len behind Jjs Eagle carrying 56.5kg at $14.30. Before that 5th of 10 at Sam Houston Park on June 6 over 320m, 1.75 len behind Lawboss carrying 56.5kg at $5.90. Recent form suggests this might be a bit too tough.
