PIMLICO
AFFIRMED EMOTION: Was confidently placed for second career start, and went well to chase the pace and finish a close fifth; improving
youngster worth following.
ALL STAR PROSPECT: Has done no wrong in three career starts to date, with two wins and a second; lightly raced 4YO with upside to follow
up class ladder.
ASK NOT: Has been second in both starts since return from break; love early zip on California transplant who is now set for big spring under trainer
Shuman’s command.
CITY AFFAIR: Fell flat in latest with Lasix added, but debut indicated there is some talent to work with here; youngster has breakout effort on
the horizon.
CRAFTY PACES: Has not had much racing luck in recent starts, so expect improvement going forward; fresh faced backed by winning
Lake barn.
FULL BRUSH: Needed return from break, and veteran should now be quick to get back to winning form; backed by winning Shuman barn.

trainer Schoenthal.

RED RIBBONS: Has held his own since stepping into allowance ranks two starts back, and can continue upward swing as lightly raced 4YO.

sharpness.
4STARSPECIAL: FEINSTER: Should only improve following initial try versus winners; well-bred gelding seemed an intriguing prospect after first
two career starts.

in right direction.
AQUEDUCT
ATLANTA ROSE: Broke very bad last out spotting the field precious lengths but did make up some ground in the lane to finish sixth, tab with
NW2L claimers.
CHARIOTEER: Never seemed to handle the track last out over the muddy going and should be given another shot over a fast surface.
CHOREOGRAPHY: Battled head to head for the lead last out with the heavy favorite, took over and never looked back scoring at 18-1. Can string
a few together with a similar effort.
CHUTE THE BREEZE: Has been going to the wars all winter to no avail and his most recent fourth while sprinting should have him ready for a
return to the turf.
COMPELLING WORLD: Ran an even fifth last out when going seven furlongs and was claimed by barn who is doing well with their claims. Should
improve with more distance.
DA RODEO MAN: Showed some speed off a long layoff and definitely needed that race as he tired to last in the drive. Follow this New York
bred at a price.
DEE DEE’S WILDCAT: Was sent right to the lead and never looked back against $30k maiden claimers and can score with winners if
properly placed.
DEPUTY CONNOR: Closed well to finish second last out at 13-1 against $10k claimers. Solid morning workouts may have tipped his
hand, follow.
DOCTOR WHO: Showed improved speed again last out and held better for a solid third and can go all the way with $30k
maiden claimers.
KRISWEN: Showed much improved speed last out before tiring to third in the lane and can get there with $20k maiden claimers.
LE ROCK: Was battling early on through swift fractions and never looked back scoring by more than six lengths. New York bred is
sharp now.
MUSETTA’S WALTZ: Took it to them early and never looked back scoring by more than three lengths. Can repeat with straight
three year olds.
RON GRESCHNER: Is still racing greenly but did finally get the job done scoring by two and a half lengths and can only get better, tab.
SILENT FRED: Closed from dead last to get up for the win over NW3L foes and has now put two in a row together and may be ready
for better.
WICKED WILL: Closed for fourth last out despite having some trouble on the turn and this backclassy veteran is in decent form, follow.
WILL FLIRT: Raced wide and green last out and just missed the win by a neck to the favorite; can score next out with maidens.
4STARSPECIAL: HENERESA: Was quickly clear to the lead last out and held that advantage into the stretch before succumbing late to
the favorite while easily clear of the third place finisher.
LONGSHOT: REGAL MODEL: Was right there at the top of the stretch just missing the place spot by neck and an head and should be
followed at a big price, turf or dirt.
