+1d Los Alamitos TB

HANKERING (3) Tidy run when 2nd last time at Del Mar and good career start. Francisco Orduna Rojas and Jesus Mendoza deserve respect together. Has plenty of early speed. No surprise to see a forward showing and one of the main hopes in this race. BAD UNCLE ERNIE (7) On a short turnaround. Picked up late to win last start at this venue. Can go on with it. HURRICANE WAY (6) Tailed off when 5th last time at Del Mar and racing in stronger company. Jockey Armando Aguilar and trainer Mark Rheinford are a formidable team. Running with confidence this preparation. Appears well in this. BAZOOKA CHARLIE (2) Subpar when 11th last run at Del Mar but has a good draw. Edgar Payeras and Genaro Vallejo deserve serious attention when combined. Should jump out and bowl along. Respect against this field.
