Sunland Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Maiden Special Weight
GYPSY WILDCAT (7) Struggled with the pace when 5th last run here. Should improve here and promising career start. Will be positive in the run early. Racing consistently since returning from a break. Rates a winning chance. ZESTY AMERICAN (8) 3yo by American Anthem having first start for Dick Cappellucci. Alfredo J Juarez Jr is a key booking. Betting is the best guide. MIGHTYLILSKY (3) Initial race appearance 3yo by Punctuate for trainer Joel H Marr. Watch the market. SEIS TACO'S (5) Produced an eye catching run when 3rd last run here. One at a decent price.

Resuming after a spell. Odds of $5.00 and ran 7th last time at this track but having second race start. Dick Cappellucci stable are running hot lately. Others preferred.

First run back from a break. Started at $36.00 and tailed off to finish 9th last start at Zia Park but will try to take advantage of the barrier. Has to have a lot go its way.

At $4.50 weakened under pressure when 5th last run at the track. Should improve here and showing consistent performance in races. Has shown early pace in races to date. Strong claims.

First appearance at the races 3yo by American Anthem for trainer Dick Cappellucci. Alfredo J Juarez Jr is a strong choice aboard. Follow the money.
