FRIDAY, DECEMBER 8
SPOT PLAYS
AQUEDUCT
Race 3
#5 Daring Prospect
Improved nicely last time out in the second race off a layoff, and really exploded at today’s 7F distance for a dominating open-lengths victory in a 12-horse field. Now returns at the correct class level and is not even favored. Offers great value at 5-2 odds on the morning line and is the horse to beat.
Race 5
#2 Reckless Humor
Plus play an exacta box w/#8 Khaleesi Kat
#2 Reckless Humor is a turf sprinter who was successful on the stretchout to a mile last time and looks to make it two in a row. Has the speed at this distance to be able to shake loose up front again, and gets an upgrade aboard to Irad Ortiz, who should be able to milk every bit of distance out of this horse’s speed. Likely to repeat.
Play in exacta box w/ #8 Khaleesi Kat, who threw in a clunker last time out but shows back up for trainer Linda Rice and is set to rebound. Likes this turf course with 3 career wins, including two races ago when she beat some of today’s top rivals.
