8th Del Mar--Let's see if we can shake our cold streak with this "value play" in this marathon race at the track where the turf meets the surf. Soul Candy(4) is a 12-to-1 shot with a realistic shot at upsetting. I loved the stride of this four-year-old gelding last time. Void of early speed he was seventh early. Wide down the backside he moved into fourth outside one on the far turn. Soul Candy rallied in the straight and was going strongly late. If the pace is realistic Soul Candy can rally late for a major share.
