7/27/12 DMR Race 3 - Preview

The third race at Del Mar Friday is a first level allowance for state bred or sired three year olds and up, set to be run at a distance of five furlongs on some California grass.  My play here is # 5 Tribal Jewel (Morning Line 8-1), a three year old gelding by Tribal Rule.  Tribal Jewel won his debut over the dirt at Santa Anita in a race that went key when the 4th and 6th place finishers (Heart Fever and La Mano Nera, respectively) won their next time out.


The Del Mar turf tends to be a good surface for dirt winners, and there should be enough early speed in this race for Tribal Jewel to be coming at late.  Trainer Jerry Hollendorfer does well enough with horses coming off a long layoff, and the price is sure to be right.


Post Time is scheduled for 5:00 PDT.  Good luck to all.


Peace and Love,


Jimbo
