Los Alamitos Qh Race 2 - Race 2 - Trials
CONTENTIOUS (7) Charged home to win last time here but competing at a higher level of competition. Strong form this preparation winning 2 from as many starts. Should race on the speed. Must be considered. COLLEGE BOY (2) Looked good when 2nd last start here and gets a favourable gate. Jockey Cesar Ortega and trainer James W Glenn Jr deserve serious attention. Should come to hand quickly. A win wouldn't surprise. BOSS LEYEND (3) Honest race when 3rd last time at this track but facing a stronger group of contenders. Has plenty of early speed. Amongst the placegetters at every start this preparation. Right in this. SAFETY UP (5) Charged home to win last start around here and fitter for debut run. Shows good early pace. Ricardo S Ramirez is a suitable booking. Each way a good option.

Tidy effort when 3rd last start at this track and can save some energy from the barrier. Should be going forward early. Up against a more competitive field. Could feature here.

Competitive effort when 2nd last start at this venue and drawn nicely. Jockey Cesar Ortega and trainer James W Glenn Jr are a pair that can't be ignored. Expecting a strong showing.

In the money when 3rd last time at this track but facing formidable competition. Will be positive in the run early. Definite contender.

Jumped at $5.00 and average effort when 4th last time here. May find these too slick.

Finished with purpose when winning last start here and was a debutant last start. Has shown early pace in races to date. Ricardo S Ramirez is highly regarded. Strong contender.

Was found wanting late when 3rd last run at this track and rising in distance. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Could be in the mix.

Strong effort to the line to win last time here but testing ability against stronger contenders. Flying this campaign with 2 wins from as many runs. Strong claims.

Odds of $11.00 and not competitive when 7th last start at this venue but having second race start. Expected to settle towards the rear. Facing a rise in trip. Highly unlikely to feature here.
