Del Mar Race 1

Maiden Special Weight

Prize Money: $91,324

MEDICI (3) missed the frame on debut then progressed nicely at his second outing when prominent at the turn, finishing one length from the winner in second at the end of 1609m at this track. Finds the right race this time and can get the job done. PRIME ARTIST (8) finished out of the money on debut two starts back then was beaten 4.5 lengths when sixth over 1408m at Naas six weeks ago. Meets some better types this time but this looks well within his grasp. LUCK LUCKY (2) is a two-year-old gelding who is having his first run for the Philip D'amato barn. Resumes after finishing fourth at Leopardstown at his last run three-and-a-half months ago. Hasn't trialled publicly but looks nicely placed. Leading player expected to feature. KID CHARLEMAGNE (5) ran a better race last time at his second career start when third over 1710m at Listed level at Colonial Downs (Turf). Has upside and is worth including.
