Race 4
#7 Miko
Plus
play exacta box w/#6 Diamond Play
#7 Miko is in good form with a win in the most recent turf outing
and even a good synthetic track second-place finish last time at Presque Isle
Downs. Now reunites with Irad Otriz for Linda Rice and has several turf races
showing in the past performances that would make him the horse to beat vs.
these.
Play
in exacta box with #6 Diamond Play, who rolls into this spot in great form with back-to-back
wins at Monmouth and then versus a solid crew last time at Suffolk in the first
start off the claim by new trainer Kelly Breen, who seems to be pushing the
right buttons. Can’t be overlooked, at least in the exactas.
Race 7
#7 Cartwheel
Tried this
7F distance last time out to a rousing success, winning wire-to-wire by 13
lengths in an off the turf race. Should be ignored in this repeat bid today
against a vulnerable field at this distance. Also has good main track efforts
from off the pace as well, and that pace versatility and ability at this
distance make her the horse to beat vs. these.
