exacta box with #9 Classic Catch
#3
Integration won both career outings to date and made believers out of many
horseplayers with his victory last time in the G3 Virginia Derby at Colonial
Downs, which he won with a strong stretch rally in just his second lifetime
start for trainer Shug McGaughey. Everything seems to be in place for another
win today. Integration is already proven against graded stakes caliber
competition at this 1 1/8-mile distance, and the Hill Prince is the next
logical stakes spot on the calendar that you would expect him to be pointed to.
Play in
exacta box with #9 Classic Catch, who trainer Todd Pletcher has been intent on
trying to get onto the grass but has been thwarted by New York’s rainy weather.
In the meantime, he’s doing just fine on the dirt, but Pletcher hopefully has
found his turf spot today and he will be extremely dangerous if he improves
upon his already good form.
Race 9
#11 Thin
White Duke
Enters off
a string of good efforts in races on both turf and dirt. His last turf outing
was a quality win in the $145,000 Harvey Pack Stakes at Saratoga where he
defeated Big Invasion, who won his next race and then was second behind Nobals
in the Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint.
