Saturday’s Best Bet: – 8- CRUMLIN BEAST – Race 10
Saturday’s Longshot Play: 5- HIT THE POINT – RACE 5
RACE 1: 6 – TALL WATER; 5 – ROYAL MAHOGANY; 3 – STRIKING HEIR; 1 – BOUND LUCKY
RACE 2: 7 – SPIRIT BELLE; 5 – HEKLA’S AURA; 6 – EYE GOT IT GOOD; 9 – TAMANA
RACE 3: 2 – GIANT ONE; 4- GRACEFUL FIGHTER; 5 – PRINCE OF AYRSHIRE; 1- GLENHOLME
RACE 4: 7- PEDIGEEK; 3 – ANITA MARGARITA; 4 – SECRETRYOFTHENILE; 1- CHAMPAGNE KRISTA
The Pick 4 begins with a maiden race on the inner turf and winter raced Pedigeek from the Mark casse barn is logical. She does not possess a lot of early speed, however, so she will have to hurry.
RACE 5: 5 – HIT THE POINT; 6- C C’S KINGDOM; 7 – STAR SIGN; 2 – COLEYVILLE;
RACE 6: 11- AIROSA; 5- PARTY; 3- KEEP THE BLOOM; 1 – MAGIC TOKEN
Two-year-olds go 5 furlongs and Airosa, a $400,000 purchase, has had any number of good workout times. Party ran well in her debut behind a good winner and Keep the Bloom is strongly bredon her dam’s side to win at first asking.
RACE 7: 9- NOW IS A BREEZE; 10 – FRANKIE’S GIRL; 12 – LADY BREW; ; 13- BATYAH
Really tough anchor leg of the two Pick 4’s. This is a large field of good fillies and mares who are evenly matched. Now is a Breeze comes off the turf and back to Tapeta after a speed try on the grass. Patrick Husbands is riding better than ever.
RACE 8: 4- SIX SENSE; 7 – SCOTTISH SYMPHONY; 9 – CURLONG CANDY; 8 – COLLECT DATT
RACE 9 – 7 – TOERIS; 2 – PERHAPS TONIGHT (IRE) 6 – AMAZIN QUEEN; 3 – WHIMSICAL DANCE
RACE 10: 8- CRUMLIN BEAST; 1- SOCIAL DRINKER; 2 – CHERRY GARDENS; 5 – GIVE ME THE BOOTS; 4- JO MARCH
