Sunland Park Race 9 - New Mexican Spring Fling S. Stakes
START BIG (2) Led throughout when winning by 3L last run at this venue and having second career run. Has early speed and positions nicely. Will try to take advantage of the stall. Winnable race. KEENAN (5) Stormed home to win last start at this track and fitter for debut run. Facing formidable rivals. Has to be strongly considered. IMA CHINA GIRL (3) Displayed a good turn of foot when winning last time at this venue and having second career run. Challenged by more formidable competitors. A win wouldn't surprise. FIRST FLASH BEAUTY (10) Picked up late to win last start at this venue and was a debutant last start. First start for a new trainer but up against stronger rivals. Must be considered.

Dictated terms in front to win by a margin of 3L last run at the track and fitter for debut run. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Solid claims.

Came on strongly to finish 2nd when beaten by 1/2L last run at this track and having second career run. Up against a more competitive field. Watching with interest.

Was much too speedy in front to win by a margin of 1/2L last run at the track and was on debut last time. Taking on stronger competition. Has some claims.

Improved to place when 3rd last run at the track and was on debut last time. Does take a while to get into stride. Appears tested in this event.

Bold effort when winning last start at this track and having second career run. Change in trainer but testing ability against stronger contenders. Good chance of taking this out.
