Race 5
#10 Top Brass
This horse
seems to tower over this field and the several losses in a row were all against
better competition and/or on incorrect surface or distance. However, this horse
started the positive turnaround process last time with an improved effort in
the first start for the new trainer and should beat today’s field with a
similar effort. Plus, additional improvement should be on the way, second time
out for this trainer and with first time Lasix.
Race 8
#4 Bramble
Berry
Plus play exacta box w/ #3 Comp’d
#4 Bramble Berry exits a clear
second last time behind a runaway winner and earned a solid speed figure in
today’s context, and has been no worse than second in five straight dirt races.
In good form and entered versus a beatable field.
Play in
exacta box with #3 Comp’d, who had her career debut about two weeks ago and
blew the doors off the field wire-to-wire at first asking with a speed figure
that stacks up against this bunch. Clearly has ability and had the speed to get
the lead and will need to be caught.
