Los Alamitos Race 8

Los Alamitos Derby

Prize Money: $151,057

TAPALO (1) went fast early and kicked strongly to score over 1408m at Listed level at Santa Anita (Dirt) last time. Can push forward again here and should prove tough to beat. CURLIN'S KAOS (5) tackled in a Listed Race last time on turf when a 1.5 lengths seventh over 1811m at Santa Anita. That came on the back of a win on turf at Santa Anita the run prior. Nice class drop this time. Major player. CORNELL (2) resumed last start over 1710m in stakes class at Santa Anita (Dirt) and showed little early speed, settling well back but hitting the line hard to finish third, beaten 8 lengths. Will find this much easier. Well placed and is one of the main contenders. Grade 2 winner WYNSTOCK (3) missed the frame first up two runs ago on dirt when sixth over 1811m at Santa Anita. Moderate effort last start on turf when unplaced over 1308m at Santa Anita. Nice class drop this time. Well placed and expected to measure up. Among the top-three hopes.

Useful type. Comes off a 48 day let-up. At the latest run won by 7 len at Santa Anita LR May 12 over 1408m defeating Ball Don't Lie carrying 54.5kg at $4.70. The start before that settled back and ran on when 5th of 8 at Santa Anita in the G1 Santa Anita Derby on April 6 over 1811m, 11 len behind Stronghold carrying 56kg at $11.30. Ideally placed to make it two on the trot.

Useful gelding. Comes off a 35 day let-up. Last start raced on the speed throughout before fading 7th of 10 at Santa Anita in LR on May 25 over 1811m, 1.5 len behind Shady Tiger with 55.5kg at $3.10. The start before that won by 1.0 len at Santa Anita April 28 over 1609m defeating Two By Four carrying 55.5kg at $2.20. Showed enough last start to suggest he can take this out.
