Race 5
#5 Sienna
Magic
Plus play exacta box w/ #7 Money Ride
#5 Sienna Magic returned from a
year+ layoff last time out and ran a good front-running effort for second at
Belmont when beaten by Money Ride, who is again a top challenger in this race.
Now this horse is ready to improve and carry the speed a lot faster and a lot
further in the second off the layoff. Loves Aqueduct with 2 wins and 2 seconds
in 4 career outings on this turf.
Play in exacta
box with #7 Money Ride, who is the horse who beat Sienna Magic last time, even
though Sienna Magic had an excuse when returning from a long layoff.
Nevertheless, this horse deserves to be respected coming off the win last time
out when he overcame a bad start. The third-place horse from that tough field
last time, Fed Funds, has already come back to win. It should be between these
two horses in the exacta boxes.
Race 9
#10 Red Knight
Finished
second in this race last year behind Sadler’s Joy and is seeking his revenge.
Late-running distance turf specialist was never better than he was last-time
out when beating some of these same horses in the Sycamore (G3) at Keeneland.
Speed figures are better than even and Jose Ortiz picks up the mount.
