HORSE RACING

TODAY AT DEL MAR

By Richard Eng

Post Time 3 p.m.

Race 1 - 6 furlongs, Purse $22,000, Maiden claiming $32,000, 3-year-olds and up

Olympic Street - Taking the biggest class drop in racing from MSW to maiden claiming; Adam Kitchingman adds blinkers on.

Sven Diesel - Big finish in debut was good enough for second; if he improves one step, he'll be right there.

Long Shot - Ry's Not Shy

Race 2 - 1 1/16th miles, Purse $18,000, Claiming $12,500, 3-year-olds and up

Citizens Brigade - Fresh face just won his maiden; most others look like they don't want to win, grinds it out.

Dirty Dish Mitch - Speed is always dangerous; chance to be alone in front, goes as fast and as far as he can.

Long Shot - Royal Vision

Race 3 - 6 furlongs, Purse $24,000, Maiden claiming $40,000, Fillies and mares, 3-year-olds and up

Sure Tiz - Ran a winning race for this class in last; she should enjoy the shorter distance of today's sprint.

Ancillary - Good try in last for second; she's a grinder and is more than capable of improving in this start.

Long Shot - Hot Summer Breeze

Race 4 - 5 furlongs (turf), Pure 62,000, Optional claiming $62,500, 3-year-olds and up

Majestic Diamond - Flattered when Shadow Of Illinois won last out; that one must draw in, so I'll go in this direction.

A Lil Dumaani - Tactical speed to sit a perfect trip; this field is jammed with early gas, could fall apart late.

Long Shot - Wine On the Porch

Race 5 - 6 furlongs, Purse $16,000, Claiming $10,000, Fillies and mares, 4-year-olds and up

Jen's New Chapter - Claimed by Doug O'Neill after an awful effort; for forgiving handicappers, she is better than that.

Dine At Nine - Speedball figures to clear the field; Christian Reyes will go as fast and as far as he can.

Long Shot - Kneeling's Pride

Race 6 - 6 furlongs, Purse $19,000, Maiden claiming $25,000, Fillies and mares, 3-year-olds and up

Dreams Afleet - How much confidence can one have in a horse laid off 13-months; she appears faster than these.

Fall Forest - Two of her last three starts have been competitive; she offers some value at 5/1 with Joel Rosario.

Long Shot - Annie's Loaded

Race 7 - 1 mile (turf), Purse $39,000, Claiming $32,000, Fillies and mares, 4-year-olds and up

Yasinisi - Leap of faith that her 2-for-2 record on Del Mar turf is fast, not fiction; will be flying late.

Carnival Queen - Tepid chalk in a wide open affair; key is Garrett Gomez, he is riding like a man possessed.

Long Shot - Lupita'sluckyangel

Race 8 - 6 1/2 furlongs, $200,000 Rancho Bernardo Handicap, Fillies and mares, 3-year-olds and up

Carlsbad - Talk about the power of early speed; no one, not even Moon de French, can challenge her, take some catching.

Evita Argentina - Proven to be a superior sprinter, forget about the 2-turn races; Joel Rosario sits and blasts off late.

Long Shot - Lady Lumberjack

Race 9 - 6 furlongs, Purse $19,000, Maiden claiming $25,000, 3-year-olds and up

De Brief Me - Nice comeback race off a 5-month hiatus; moves from outer to inner post today, will save some ground.

Morton Owen - Slow beginning, fast finish in last; is reunited with Rafael Bejarano, figures to be part of the number.

Long Shot - Objectified
