Del Mar Race 7

Post Time 5:29 PM CST
Analysis by Emily Gullikson

#4 AH JEEZ looks to have some hype coming into this race and could be favored off that. While he has races that make him a fit, he has shown some distance limitations in the past and that is something to consider as a short price and create value elsewhere. 

#6 DANDY MAN SHINES is a recent maiden winner, though has some graded stakes experience going back to the Zuma Beach (G3) last fall, a common race with AH JEEZ and both recording a C+ OptixGRADE. DANDY MAN SHINES has some upside as he makes his second start off the layoff and has shown an affinity for this DMR turf course. #5 SMART MO has recorded numbers right on par with many in this field and with stakes experience. He is coming off a subtle trip last month at Santa Anita compromised by the course, ground loss and cold barn picking up a live rider in J. Hernandez here.
