Race 3
#4 D’Ambrosio
Plus play an exacta box w/#2 Perfect Partner
#4 D’Ambrosio didn’t do much in the first career start when faltering in the mud, but sure deserves another chance today against a lackluster field on a fast track that will suit him much better today for trainer Kiaran McLaughlin, who doesn’t even crank up his runners for their first starts, anyway, and instead usually unleashes his maidens in their second career starts. Today is the day.
Play in exacta box w/#2 Perfect Partner, who has tried 7F, 1 1/8 miles, and 1 ¼ miles, and has finished second every time so far. Now trying to get over the hump at a mile, and while he seems a better pick for second, he certainly has the speed figures and consistently good performances to make him a serious contender for the win, and at very least for the exactas.
Race 5
#2 Snap Decision
Hasn’t run a bad race this year when always in the money, including in a stakes race and when in against generally tougher competition than he is facing today. Has speed figures that stack up as better than these, and should return to the winner’s circle with his typical good effort.
