Sunland Park Race 8 - Race 8 - Allowance
CONFLICT (10) lines up for the first time since November 22. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 366m at The Albuquerque Downs Racetrack & Casino. Has found a suitable race. KING BOTAS BLANCAS (11) is back from a spell of nine weeks. Closed last prep with a fourth, beaten 1.4 lengths, over 320m at this track. Among the top chances. POLITICAL FLING (2) lines up for the first time since December 14. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 320m at The Albuquerque Downs Racetrack & Casino. Has to be respected. AJ GOLDEN CASH (9) returns after a spell of nine weeks. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 320m at Zia Park. Worth plenty of thought.

Mare back from a spell of three-and-a-half months. Has placed previously first up from a break.

When resuming last campaign second of 7 at The Albuquerque Downs Racetrack & Casino September 21 over 320m, 0.8 len behind Aqua Chica carrying 58kg at $4.30. Could prove too smart for these.
