Will Rogers Downs Race 3 - Race 3 - Maiden Claiming
EMPIRE RANCH (4) remains a maiden after six runs. Was well in commission last time but could only manage to finish fifth over 1207m at Oaklawn Park (Dirt). Well placed on this occasion and gets his chance to break the ice. GOSPEL DON (8) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at this track (Dirt) over 1609m after being in contention all the way. Will need a good ride from Leandro Goncalves off the awkward draw. Finds a suitable race and can build on solid recent efforts. MO MESA (2) is a 14-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start and was beaten 2.75 lengths when fifth over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Will derive great benefit from that outing and deserves consideration. TWISTED STEEL (1) is a seven-start maiden who is knocking on the door, the latest effort a solid third at this track (Dirt) over 1106m after being in the firing line on the corner. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run.

Second-up. First-up after six months ran last in a small field at this track on March 3 over 1609m, 2.75 len behind Palace Rock with 57kg at $6.60. Previously second-up 3rd of 8 at Canterbury Park on June 8 over 1408m, 6 len behind Arjun For Karz with 56kg at $11.70. Fitter again and a winning hope.

At debut, got back early 5th of 7 at this track on March 2 over 1106m, 8 len behind Myth Conception with 55.5kg at $7.70. Encouraging signs on debut but this looks a tough assignment.

Comes here off a 34-day let-up. Last start second last of 7 at this track on February 17 over 1609m, 27 len behind Code Eleven with 57kg at $3.10. The run before that held ground to the line 3rd of 9 at this track on February 2 over 1609m, 13 len behind Crab Crunch with 57kg at $12. Needs plenty of luck.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run 3rd in a small field at this track on March 9 over 1609m, 2.5 len behind Our Flat Out carrying 57kg at $3.40. Before that sat on the pace when 3rd of 7 at this track on February 17 over 1609m, 0.8 len behind Code Eleven with 57kg at $9. Well placed. Should prove hard to beat.
