Del Mar - Race 7
#6 Desert Steel (9/2 ml)
I was on this filly last time in the Daisycutter, as she was coming off a long layoff, but she was a course specialist who had been pointed to the race for a long time and was training well, going off at a big price. Thought she was best on the track that day, loaded for bear in the stretch but blocked behind horses and nowhere to run. Much better than looks on paper. I knew she would run back on this course before the end of the meet, and here she is. Makes amends today (I hope).
HRT record:
98-for-375 (26%)
$832.00 mutuels ($8.49 avg)
