PHILADELPHIA PARK
COURTNEYS PLEASURE: Chased a loose-on-the-lead wire-to-wire winner and still outran 37-1
odds for second; don’t overlook.
DEPUTY RUMMY: Got off to a slow start and then made a middle move to challenge for the lead before needing
to settle for third. Still looms an allowance threat.
FINANCIAL RISK: Was jostled and steadied at the start and still managed to run an improved effort for fourth. Still
has potential vs. maidens.
FULMINE: Well-bet first starter set a fast and pressured pace before settling for third behind a perfect-trip stalker. Too
much speed to remain a maiden for long.
GREENBERG: May have needed a race off a brief freshening, but it’s still too early to give up on her. Can make
amends.
JUSTNOWAYOFKNOWIN’: Finished far behind the top two, but still hit the board in a 10-horse field in first start back from a
layoff. Can improve further next time out.
LUCKY ELEVEN: Didn’t break sharply but then was rushed up to the lead before tiring due to those early efforts. Better luck
next time.
STORM DUCK: Broke slowly and had too much ground to make up when fourth last time out. Finished only two necks out of
second and rates another chance.
WESTERLY FLOW: Ran third behind a loose-on-the-lead wire-to-wire winner in first start since the Monmouth meet. Prepped
and ready now.
4STARSPECIAL: DIXIEMORE: Might have won last time if not for getting blocked in traffic nearing the stretch. Tough to
deny with a clean trip.
LONGSHOT: APPEALING GREELY: Blew the start and had no chance behind a runaway wire-to-wire winner. Has a good
shot with a clean break.
FAIR GROUNDS
G.W.’S SQUALL: Rated just off the pace, moved to contention, and flattened out when tried on turf for the first time in latest; daughter
of Summer Squall shows promise.
GONE FISHIN: Brings loads of back class to the table as an earner of nearly a half-million dollars in his career; veteran rounding to
winning effort in recent starts.
HUNTERS HALO: Battled on pace then proved no match late when challenged by winner and had to settle for clear second
best; 10-time winner hits hard in claiming dashes.
LADY GWEN: Showed improved early speed in latest, only to fade in the stretch; filly has shown flashes knocking on the door
of late and should continue to improve for Peitz barn.
LUNA MUNDIAL: Argentine import fired her best U.S. shot yet when second to clear winner in latest; veteran mare has knack for
bringing home checks.
MOVIN SOUTH: Tried to stretch out to one mile in latest, but came up a bit empty when it counted late; effort and experience
move lightly raced 4YO filly way forward.
OFFICE ATTIRE: Never got on track in career debut when an even sixth, but was beaten only 4 ¼ lengths for Howard barn
that lets them come along at their own pace; pedigree pop.
SECOND TUESDAY: Returned to town with a late-running second in his first start since last-November; plenty of class and upward
mobility off claim by trainer Vazquez.
SILVER INDY: Has been somewhat of an in-and-outer thus far, but this son of Silver Charm and an A.P. Indy mare must be
followed for barn which went 10-for-26 last year.
ST. MARTIN’S CLOAK: Scored in return from break, then chased and faded in latest; Asmussen-trained speedster bounces
back to best stuff in next.
4STARSPECIAL: VIRGINIA PRIDE: Showed the way early on slow pace in latest, then gave way once challenged; veteran
does best work when racing just off an early target.
LONGSHOT: AGAVE: Battled and stopped in latest, when tried on turf for the first time in her career; lightly raced 4YO filly showed
more than enough to be considered back on either surface in first start off Vazquez claim.
