Sunland Park Race 4 - Race 4 - Maiden Claiming
USE OF FORCE (12) returns from a spell of 11 weeks and is having his first run for a new yard. Finished eighth at Zia Park (Dirt) over 302m when first-up last time in work. Well-placed and looks ready to fire. DON DARIO M (7) finished out of the money on debut two starts back then he was always well out of his ground and was beaten 5 lengths when ninth in a 274m contest at this track seven weeks ago. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. KING OF CHEYENNE (8) was narrowly beaten at his latest appearance at Zia Park (Dirt) over 366m 11 weeks ago. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race. DERAS WYNN THRU FIRE (9) is returning from a spell of 11 weeks. Finished seventh at Retama Park (Dirt) over 274m at the first run last prep. Now with a new trainer Enrique B Hernandez.
