SPOT PLAYS
Race 8 – La Troienne
#2 Shedaresthedevil
Six-time
winner is already 3-for-3 at Churchill Downs. She was victorious over Letruska
in her seasonal debut last time out in Oaklawn’s Azeri Stakes (G2), and looks
extremely tough to beat on this track for trainer Brad Cox. Shedaresthedevil
has early zip and a high cruising speed and will be tough to catch.
Race 11 – Kentucky Oaks

#12 Search Results is
undefeated at 3-for-3 for trainer Chad Brown, including a win at this distance
in Aqueduct’s Gazelle (G3) in her last race. Owns good tactical speed but doesn’t need the lead to win. Has
good speed figures and looks good with Irad Ortiz aboard
Play in exacta and
trifecta box with #6 Travel Column, trained by Brad Cox, who won the
Fair Grounds Oaks (G2) in her last race and who also won last fall’s Golden Rod
(G2) at Churchill Downs with regular rider Florent Geroux. Also has high speed figures
and never runs a bad race.
Play in exacta and
trifecta box with #5 Pass the Champagne, who lost by just a head in the Ashland
(G1) in her last race, yet is 15-1 on the morning line while the horse that finished
narrowly ahead of her is the morning line favorite. Live overlay bumps up the
value of the exotics and just needs a decent start.
