HorseRating 104.75 Speed Rating 107.33 M/L 2-1
Stalking sort who should be near the front end of this race. The inside post will be of great value to her tonight as she will be able to establish position early and dictate the pace of the race. She has been installed as the morning line favorite and looms as the horse to beat this evening.
2. THUNDERING HOOVES(C) (DD-Thunder Gulch/DD-Con Te Partiro) Life 6 1 1 2 449100 Star Of The Desert
Horse Rating 103.00 Speed Rating 107.00 M/L 3-1
As mentioned in the last writeup on this horse his workouts indicated a big effort and he didn't disappoint. He lead every step of the way and I anticipate a similar effort this evening although the 1 horse might mess up his plans if she tries for the front as well. Must be considered a player this evening.
3. THE LONG WALK(F) (DD-The Process/DD-Beach Walk) Life 4 0 1 1 16070 Bobby Dazzler
Horse Rating 102.25 Speed Rating 108.00 M/L 5-1
If a speed duel develops between the 1 and 2 horses she could very well be the horse to pick up the pieces tonight. She has a very good late kick and I expect she will be closing hard in the stretch. Her last race did not inspire a great deal of confidence, however, as she just barely squeaked through to this round. I am looking elsewhere for the winner.
4. ROYAL YAWKEY(F) (DD-Royal Lytham/DD-Yawkey Way) Life 4 0 1 2 23070 Chrisman
Horse Rating 103.25 Speed Rating 105.00 M/L 4-1
She has shown the ability to stalk the leaders or close from way off the pace. Her best efforts have been when she closes from off the pace as she did in her last race where she came from 6th to get 3rd, just missing the winners circle by a neck. A repeat of that performance puts her right in the thick of things tonight.
5. TURKISH CHARM(F) (DD-Samsonite/DD-Estate) Life 3 0 0 2 138800 And More Racing Stable
Horse Rating 101.75 Speed Rating 105.00 M/L 6-1
She has just enough speed to get herself into trouble tonight as I feel the 2 horse will be gunning for the lead and she does not appear fast enough to get a clear lead in this race which will probably result in a wide effort and a fading stretch. Must pass.
6. AMERICAN RENUNION(C) (DD-American Pharoah/DD-An Ghalanta) Life 4 0 1 1 13910 Chrisman
Horse Rating 103.00 Speed Rating 105.67 M/L 5-1
Stalking type who appears would like a shorter race than he gets this evening. He should be up near the front early, not sure he will be there at the end so I must pass.
