Sunland Park Race 3 - Race 3 - Allowance Optional Claiming
OUR VALENTINO (3) First up after a break of 57 weeks. Bold effort when winning last time at this venue and good career start. Jockey Alfredo J Juarez Jr rates highly aboard. Winning appeal. HEZEKIAH'S RULE (4) Goes well first up. Finished hard to win last time at Zia Park and demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Winning prospect. JED (5) Didn't threaten when 6th last run here. Happy to overlook that run. Should muster plenty of early speed. Putting up notable efforts this preparation. Can measure up to this company. JET SET WARRIOR (1) Zipped home into 3rd last time at this venue and has drawn to do little work. Likely to be well placed early. Been in the money each start this campaign. One of the hopes.
