Sunland Park Race 3 - Race 3 - Maiden Claiming
MICHIGA (3) was last at the races when she finished second over 1207m at Zia Park (Dirt) on December 16. Comes here with definite claims. TEXAS TECH LEGS (6) is a two-start maiden who placed on debut then could only manage tenth last start, beaten 23 lengths over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Should settle just off the speed despite the tough draw. Strong chance this line-up. MY KENTUCKY CHROME (1) improved last start to finish second over 905m at this track after being in contention on the corner. Likely improver with strong prospects. TRES AMORE (2) was beaten 9 lengths into sixth in a 905m contest at this track a week ago. Has her share of talent and is a top-three prospect.
