Race 7
#7 Leah’s Dream
Plus
play exacta box w/#3 Makin’ Out
#7 Leah’s Dream is a seven-time winner that is loaded with
early speed, who may or may not face any serious challenge up front, depending
on the #1 entry. Either way, this horse had never been better than last fall,
reeling off three straight wins until a terrible start last time out cost her a
victory and broke her losing streak. Just needs a better break to make amends.
Play in exacta box with #3 Makin’ Out, who has been solid in
three career outings so far with the maiden win in the second career out
followed by an allowance fourth, beaten about two lengths last time back at
Belmont against a better field. Owns good speed figures and enough quality to
handle this field if she’s ready today off the four-month layoff.
Race 8
#4 Paynterbynumbers
Settled for second in solid
career debut last time after getting caught in a three-way scrum for the lead.
Now is ready to benefit from that career debut and is likely to face a much
softer pace scenario here today which should enable her to go to the front and
go wire-to-wire.
