Superfecta Sunday at Sunland Park

 Another beautiful Superfecta Sunday and today we look in on a pleasing Stakes race down in New Mexico.

Sunland Park Race 9 {MineThat Bird Derby~1 1/16 mile~3 year-old~Stakes}

A good field of eight will go to the gate in this prep for the big Sunland Derby. 

Past Performances Used:  DRF Formulator.

There is plenty of speedy types to rip off a strong pace. Speed numbers are very close for these improving colts and geldings. Only two have raced at this distance, the rest will be stretching out. Four Triple Crown nominees make their appearance. This race shapes up to be one in which any of these lads can win. A sweet race down in New Mexico.

#6 Striaght Up G (R. Gonzalez / Baltas) comes in from Southern California with the fourth highest last out speed number earned at this very distance and four high powered workouts. This guy should be forwardly placed in a pack of runners. A son of Straight Fire, he is 75% in the money from four career starts.

$2 WIN  /  $3 PLACE  /  $5 SHOW.

#7 American Xperiment (A Juarez / Asmussen) comes in from Oaklawn Park with the highest last out speed number and three strengthening workouts. He should battle with the pace mates. A son of Nyquist, he is 100% in the money from three career starts.

#5 Pepper Spray (L. Valenzuela / Kereluk) has already posted a victory over this track and comes in with three wins in a row from all of his three career starts. This guy should be forwardly placed. He has put in one sound workout. A son of Tale of Ekati, he will stretch out taking another step forward.

#3 Benissimo (E. Gomez / Cappellucci) will make his third career start seeking to break his maiden in this stakes race. Two sensational bullet workouts show that he is well prepped for contention. The lone closer in this group, he will take advantage of any pace implosion. A son of Pioneer of the Nile, he is 50% in the money from his two career starts.
