Race 7
#2 Fierce Scarlett
Chad Brown trainee trounced a
good maiden field two races ago in the first turf stretchout, easily beating
today’s opponent On The Town as well as next-out winner Brooke Marie. Tried a
Graded stakes race at Keeneland last time and there’s certainly no shame in
that fourth-place finish. Now returns to New York to face a field she can
handle as the clear standout of this bunch.
Race 8
#5 Epping Forest
Plus
play exacta box w/#3 Fire Key
#5 Epping Forest had won two straight turf sprints and 3 of
her last four before the disaster toss-out stakes try last time out when she
lost all chance avoiding a fallen rival. Now gets another chance and is ready
to rebound as a major overlay at 9-2 odds on the morning line. Win machine is
6-for-12 lifetime, and 5-for-7 in turf sprints at this distance.
Play in exacta box with #3 Fire Key, who has reeled off
back-to-back turf sprint stakes wins in similar spots and has an obvious chance
here to make it three in a row. Seven-time winner likes Aqueduct and has speed figures
that stack up well against this competition.
