Race 8
#10 Platinum Spark
Plus play an exacta box w/#2 Double Dose
#10 Platinum Spark lost by only a couple lengths in her prep race return from a 10-month layoff after winning at first asking way back last June for David Donk. Means business today and can exceed the speed figure earned last time when prepping. Jose Ortiz returns for the mount and the slight stretch to 7F will only help.
Play in exacta box w/#2 Double Dose, who is red hot right now with three straight wins including two in a row in turf sprints since getting claimed by current trainer David Jacobson. Wheels right back six days after the most recent win for a trainer that strikes at a high percentage with that move.
Race 9
#7 Kantune
Ran a solid return from an eight-month layoff last time out in a race she needed, and now is spotted to win in the second off the layoff in this class drop in against nw3 horses. Castellano picks up the mount, and this horse has the speed to lead and not look back.
Plus Play Late Daily Double in Race 8, #2 Double Dose and #10 Platinum Spark w/ #7 Kantune
