Del Mar Race 8 - Race 8 - Mdn Claiming
I'M NO SWIFTY (13) Couldn't stay in touch when 5th last start at Santa Anita. Has the speed to overcome the wide draw. Can take this out. ZADRA (2) Didn't find the line when 5th last run at Santa Anita but good career start. Should muster plenty of early toe. Performing impressively since resuming from a spell. Can get the job done. START D' ORO (9) Rolando Quinonez 3yo by Gato Del Oro having first race start. Respect the betting. LAST CHANCE DARCY (1) Finished 6th last run at Los Alamitos Th but can save some energy from the alley. Capable of forward showing and can be competitive.

Odds of $9.00 and ran 6th last run at Los Alamitos Th but will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Chance and can measure up.

Jumped at $10.00 and looked outclassed when 5th last run at Santa Anita but honest performer putting a tidy record together. Won't be far away during the run. Definite claims for punters.

At $8.00 was well beaten when 5th last start at Santa Anita and will be down in distance. Not very reliable.

At $9.50 tailed off to finish 10th last start at Los Alamitos Th but having second career run. Has plenty of early speed. Prefer in a much weaker race.

First up after a break. Good performance to run into 3rd beaten by 15L last start at Santa Anita. Does take a while to get into stride. Has some claims.

Was $9.50 and outmatched towards the finish when 5th last start at Santa Anita. Has the early speed to burn across from the wide alley. Win will not surprise.
