Will Rogers Downs Race 9 - Race 9 - Optional Claiming
EMERALD BAY (6) is a strong fresh performer back after a break of four months and looking to emulate her win at Remington Park to kick off the last campaign. Key runner while fresh. L GALLITO (8) was unwanted in betting last start but performed beyond expectations when beaten 1.0 lengths into fourth over 402m at Listed level at Canterbury Park (Dirt). Should feature again. AXLE D (9) missed the placings when resuming two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 229m at Sandy Ridge, beaten only 0.6 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. Edwin G Escobedo gets the best out of this four-year-old gelding. Finds a suitable assignment and can get the job done. JD DASHING DAMSEL (7) settled well back before finishing 1.75 lengths adrift in sixth over 320m at Sandy Ridge (Dirt) last time. Backmarker who keeps coming. Sure to be competitive.

At the latest run 6th of 8 at Sandy Ridge on September 6 over 320m, on a wet track; 1.75 len behind Ap Miss Lunas Tide with 57kg at $10.44. The run before that won by a 0.3 len at Sandy Ridge on August 26 over 274m defeating Mg Fresca with 57kg at $4.76. Capable of a big finish so don't write her off.
