BLACK OPS never got going last time but earlier form at Sunland Park is strong and Kerry Kemper’s gelding can bounce back here with a rails draw to help. Ourbestfriend D L beat Executive Decree and Itsallaboutyou here a couple of weeks ago and that form could receive a boost earlier on the card. Scooter’s Boy holds Golden Bullet and goes from strength-to-strength so is much respected but this company might be too hot for Hotfoot.
