She is a pure sprinter who could easily grab the lead here tonight. Even if she gets the lead she will be hard pressed to han g on against these. She only has 2 wins from 22 starts so I must pass.

He should not be among the early leaders tonight but shoudl be closing hard in the stretch. A speed duel is a possibilty tonight and that might help him coming off the pace. A minor award is not out of the realm of possibilty.

TR: Sweet Stables BR: Sweet Stables
Horse Rating 98.25 Speed Rating 111.24
She should be either on or near the lead tonight but I don't think she is fast enough to actually get the lead and that could prove problematic as she might be forced to run wide which should lead to a fading effort so I must pass.

She has run very well in this series and I expect she will do the same tonight. She might be in perfect position to grab the rail right behind the leaders andthen try and close them out in the stretch. In my mind she looms the main danger to STINKY BOY and must be considered a major threat tonight.
5. HALLOWEEN CANDY (PA)(F) (DD-A.P. Indy (KY)/DD-Hallowed Dreams (KY)) Life 29 7 6 3 235330
TR: Star Of The Desert BR: Cowboy Way
Horse Rating 96.50 Speed Rating 108.72
She won last season's Peurto Rico Derby which was contested over this distance, so she must be considered a player tonight. She should be closing hard in the stretch and should hit the board tonight.

Another sprinter who should eb pushing the early pace tonight but her best efforts have come at shorter distances. I don't see her hanging on against these so I must pass.

Her best efforts have come from on or near the lead but I don't think she is fast enough to be among the leaders tonight so I must pass.

Ha has shown the ability to lead from ate to wire against these and he must be considered the horse to beat tonight. If he doesn't get the lead it might be a different story but every time I see him race he rockets to the lead.
