He has a lot of early speed but has faded badly in each of his strats at this distance. I feel the same may happen again this evening so I must pass.

Horse Rating 101.75 Speed Rating 111.92 M/L 2-1
She is the morning line favorite and even though she has not run at this distance before her works indicate she sholuld be able to handle the distance without any problems. She is winning at a 50% clip and I feel she has to be considered the horse to beat tonight.
3. COWBOYS EMPIRE (NY)(C) (DD-Empire Maker (KY)/DD-Mariah's Storm) Life 2 1 1 0 21200

Horse Rating 101.25 Speed Rating 111.00 M/L 5-1
This trip appears to be a little too short for his liking and you won't see him near the lead early on. He should be flying in the stretch and there are only 4 othjer horses in the race so he isn't likely to be blocked turning for home. If the early speed collapses he just might be there to pick up the pieces but I am looking elsewhere for the winner tonight.

Horse Rating 103.25 Speed Rating 112.40 M/L 4-1
She has run well in all but 1 race in his short career and the last 2 were at this distance. She probably will be pressing the early pace and should be right there at the wire with SKYS LIL BLUE DEVIL(NY), but I am taking Lil Blue Devil to win this race.

Stalking type who will also contend for the lead tonight. If she can get a clear lead she might be very tough on the front end, I am just not sure she can get a clear lead.
