Race 2
#2 Zap Zap Zap
Claimed away from Rudy
Rodriguez, but goes back to Toscano on the claiming after winning when last
with this barn back in September at Belmont. In good form in the last two races
which were both at this one-turn mile distance, and the recent speed figures
are enough to blow this field away.
Race 3
#7 Pier Forty
Plus
play exacta box w/#5 Scotty Brown
#7 Pier Forty traded decisions with the second pick Scotty
Brown in the last two outings, so he forms a logical half of the exacta box
along with that rival. Exits the better most recent race, a distant but solid
second-place finish with a speed figure good enough to win this race if he is able
to repeat it.
Play in exacta box with #5 Scotty Brown, who threw in a
clunker last time out but certainly could rebound here today and if he can,
that would spell trouble for today’s competition. In the money in 3 of 5 career
races and has been knocking on the door for the maiden win. Trainer Terranova
having a good meet so far (3-for-6) and this runner gets in 5-pounds light
under an apprentice rider.
