Del Mar Race 11 - Race 11 - Mdn Special Weight
YEP (4) Resumes from a break. Was competitive when 3rd last start at Chantilly and solid career start. Jockey Umberto Rispoli and trainer Philip D'Amato form a formidable team. Capable of forward showing and can be competitive. KOEKKOEK (6) Gave ground when 5th last run at Santa Anita and returning to a rise in trip. Will be trying to topple them late. This field suits. CORKSCREW ANDY (10) Quality Road 3yo having first race start for trainer Richard E Mandella. Watch the betting. PLAGARIST (9) Couldn't shake them off when 2nd beaten by 1 1/2L last time at Santa Anita. Has the early speed to burn across from the wide draw. Could run into the money.

Was $12.00 and ordinary when 7th last run at Santa Anita but was on debut last time. Prefers to settle towards the rear. Will appreciate a good draw. Simply cannot have today.

Resumes after a break of 33 weeks. At $5.00 edged past some when finishing 5th last start at Churchill Downs and gets a favourable draw. Could be in the mix.

Was $8.50 and crept into 4th last start at Santa Anita and back to a longer distance. Jockey Joel Rosario consistently rides well for this stable. Not dismissing.

Honest run on the speed before fading to finish 2nd last time at Santa Anita. Has the necessary speed to overcome the wide draw. Not at all out of this race.

Racing fresh today after a break. Odds of $18.00 and below par when 4th last run at Santa Anita. Looks hopeful at best.
