Sunland Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Trials
SHOT OF TAKILLYA (3) lines up for the first time since November 15. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 320m at Retama Park. Has ability and should be right in the finish. UNLEESHED (2) finished out of the money but was not too far away when resuming last start over 366m in Group 2 class at Zia Park (Dirt). Was a winner at his only previous second-up run. Should park just off the speed. Best form puts him right in this. SERVANDITOS CARTEL (4) was a determined maiden winner last time out, scoring by 0.3 lengths over 320m at this track (Dirt). Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Shaping up nicely and he is right in the mix again. TEXAS PHARAOH (10) returns from a spell after finishing off the last campaign in solid form including a narrow defeat over 366m at Lone Star Park (Dirt) last time out. Commendable record at this trip with a win and four minor placings and cannot be underestimated.
