Race 3
#5 Weather Wiz
Plus play exacta box w/ #3 Crimson King
#5 Weather Wiz has been knocking on the door vs. maidens and is ready to graduate today in the second start back from the long layoff. Earned a high speed figure in defeat last time, and was second while nine lengths clear of the third horse. Beats these with a similar effort.
Play in exacta box with #3 Crimson King, who is the contender in this race who is most likely to improve. Making second career start for trainer Todd Pletcher, who wins a high-percentage with his maiden second-time starters (35%). Overcame a bad start last time to finish third, and can spring an upset or at least round out the exactas with a better start.
Race 8
#3 Flash Trading
Been first or second in four straight outings including a victory in a key race last time out, defeating next-out winners Gift Box and T R Crew. In career-best form now and still keeps improving. Likes Aqueduct and should get an ideal pace scenario to set-up his late run.
