Sunland Park Race 9 - Race 9 - Maiden Claiming
AWSOME CHARLIE (9) ran below expectations last time at this track (Dirt), finishing sixth and beaten 5 lengths starting at $3.80. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. TORREADO (10) finished second at this track two runs back but was less effective last time over 1308m at this track (Dirt), finishing 9 lengths back in tenth. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. AMERICAN SECRETS (7) is back after a break of three-and-a-half months. At the last run before the layoff he finished eighth over 1106m at Zia Park (Dirt). Rates highly and is a chance to break through. DASHING AMERICAN (12) was close to breaking through last time in work, closing the prep as favourite and finishing third at Zia Park (Dirt) before a 11 weeks break. Can pick up where he left off. Rates highly on best form and should be in the mix.

At the latest run crossed from a wide gate to lead but couldn't hold on when 6th of 12 at this track on February 8 over 1308m, 5 len behind Green Is The Daddy with 56kg at $3.80. Before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 9 at this track on January 12 over 1308m, nose behind M G Rojo Loco carrying 56kg at $3.20. Worth another chance.
