Del Mar Race 7 - Del Mar Juvenile Turf S. Stakes
OBSERVED (3) Ran on strongly to win last start at Horseshoe Indianapolis and having second race start. Displays good finishing speed. Jonathan Thomas has been training plenty of winners recently. Goes very close. SHADOW NATION (5) Resuming. Found another gear when winning by a margin of nearly 7L last start at Santa Anita and having second career run. Shows good early pace. Facing an increased distance. Will be there at the finish. GOLDEN SENTRY (4) Dominant winner by 3 3/4L last start around here and having second race start. Going up in trip. Rising in class. Must be considered. OFF IN THE CORNER (8) Was first to greet the judge when winning by 2 1/4L last run here and was a debutant last start. Going over more ground. Up against a more competitive field. Should be competitive in this race at a bit of odds.

At $5.00 below par when 6th last run at this track but was a debutant last start. Has a positive barrier. Competing in a higher grade. This field likely to be too good.

Ran on hard when winning last start at Horseshoe Indianapolis and fitter for debut run. Can go through the gears. Jockey Juan J Hernandez is an asset. Can win this.

Made a mess of them when winning by 3 3/4L last start around here and was a debutant last start. Stepping up in distance. Competing at a higher class. Expect a forward showing.

Was all too good winning by 2 1/4L last run around here and fitter for debut run. Stepping up in trip. Stepping up to a higher level. Definite winning chance.

Was $9.00 and finished 4th last start at this venue and competing at a higher level of competition. Has early speed and positions nicely. Looking elsewhere.
