Race 6
#8 Double Mane
Best career races have been the last two outings in the recent return from the long layoff. Battled for the lead last time and outran the early challenger at 6 1/2F only to lose to some perfect set-up horses who return to face her again today in this better 6F spot that gives the advantage to this horse. Ready to make amends at good 8-1 odds on the morning line.
Race 8
#8 Nocturnal Mission
Plus play an exacta box w/#3 Eloquent Riddle
#8 Nocturnal Mission has just one career race so far, but it was a winning one and that effort looks even better now that the second- and third-place finishers both returned to win their maiden races in their next outings from that key race. Comes back fresh for Bill Mott and has some blazing bullet workouts that indicate this horse is in continued good fitness.
Play in exacta box w/#3 Eloquent Riddle, who gets class relief today for 33% winning trainer Chad Brown, dropping down against allowance horses for the first time after three straight stakes efforts. Tough outing last time in the G2 Davona Dale, but this runner had some very solid efforts against extremely tough stakes horses including Miss Sky Warrior and Yorkiepoo Princess. Also working in this horse’s favor is the cutback in distance back into a sprint. Obvious exacta box horse along with the top selection.
