Friday Del Mar Recap – August 17
Patient runners proved best on Polytrack. A stalker (5f) and a presser (8f) made up the two turf winners.
Rafael Bejarano and Corey Nakatani both booted home a pair. Mark Glatt saddled two winners on the afternoon.
On the ticket front I tabbed three Primary (Northern Force, No Tricks For Jack, Lady Ten) winners and one Secondary (No Rachmones) winner.
