Race 5
#3 Flowers for Lisa
Sprang to
life when stretched out to a route last time out here at Belmont, cruising
wire-to-wire with a strong speed figure. Veteran owns 13 career wins and 25
career exacta finishes, and owns plenty of past races that indicate that last
effort was not a fluke when this horse is in good form. There’s not a lot of
speed entered in this race, and she should be able to dominate up front once
again.
Race 7
#2 Tiz He the
One
Plus play exacta box w/ #3 Expert
#2 Tiz He
the One lost to some of these horses last time, but can make a positive
turnaround today in first race off the claim by Linda Rice after having started
this year running in stakes races in Maryland. Loves this one-mile distance
around one turn after racking up his career-best efforts at this trip a couple
years ago. Due for a positive turnaround.
Play in
exacta box with #3 Expert, who has picked some suspect spots to run in lately –
all in longer races and all against better competition. No dice in those spots,
but now returns to a more realistic assignment today, dropping in class and
returning to the 1-mile distance. Has been known to rattle off the wins when
well-placed as he is today, and loves this distance much more than the extended
routes he’s been losing in lately.
