TURF PARADISE
ARIANNE: Trailed when a big price on tote in last, but jockey Stevens did have the call; worth a stab
right back should rider stay on board.
EMBARASSING MOMENT: Up for second when winner got first run last time; next time it’s her turn
versus similar stock.
EMERY: Battled throughout on sharp pace when dropping a head decision versus MCL’s; set to leave
present company.
IZA TORNADO: Put speed to good use in game win Oct. 4; speed simply kills in lower-end claiming
sprints.
MR. PEPPERS: Finished third as the favorite in latest (bumped start, wide turn), he can improve following
claim by trainer Fulmer.
SEATTLE SUNSHINE: Along for a share in latest, and in spite of wide spot into stretch run; staying on
board.
STAGE CREEK: Dueled and faded in last, but his speed remains dangerous in $4K- tag sprints.
TOE THE MARK: Chased in vain behind blowout winner in latest, but finished well clear for second; another
chance.
4STARSPECIAL: MISS TERASITA: Finished flat fifth as favorite in latest; she’s simply better than that
and can prove it in short order.
LONGSHOT: GOLD BIDDER: Finished up to grab show dough in last; proves well worth $8K-claim for
trainer Russo.
LAUREL
AMERI PRINCESS: Stalked the pace while three wide and hung in well for third. Fits with NW2L $7.5k claimers.
CITIKITTI: Got up into the second spot behind wire to wire winner in a five furlong turf sprint. Will be tough if she
can get a similar inside trip next out.
HEART OF A HERO: Passed a few horses in the drive to finish an even fourth last out. A drop in class to
lesser claiming foes can do the trick, tab.
HURRICANE ALLY: Was outrun early while racing off the rail and then came with a strong late run to finish a solid
second. Is a good fit with $6.5k claimers.
IMPERIOSO: Was up close early on while racing in second and almost got the job done just missing by head at 57-1.
Should fare well with similar starter allowance foes next out.
JACQUELYN T: Was bumped off stride at the start and was never able to make up the needed ground finishing an
even fifth.
JODI WINGS: Filly loves to win and came up a half length short of the prize last out. Veteran mare should be
followed right back.
LAUNCH YOUR DREAMS: Made a strong move into the leader but could not reach and tired to fourth. Was
claimed from that event and fits with $5k claimers.
VENIZIA: Was the easiest kind of winner last out scoring by six lengths after trailing early. 2YO can repeat versus
similar and may have a future.
VOICE OF POWER: Closed some good ground late in a quickly run turf sprint and his diploma awaits.
ZIP ZIP BOOM: 2YO flashed good speed through a solid opening quarter in 22:2 before tiring at the half. Is a
danger to go all the way at a big price.
4STARSPECIAL: RED VELVET CAKE: Held a large lead in the stretch only to get rundown late in the
drive and finish second easily. Scores a wire to wire victory next out with similar.
LONGSHOT: SHOULDN’T WE ALL: Was an even fifth behind a wire to wire winner and must be respected
for her backclass, follow.
