Race 6: 1 Mile. (Turf) Alw 50000s

*Force Feed Friday Bomb of the Day #1 Knockout Punch (15/1) – This gelding ran a good 4^th last time behind a slow pace and going 6-wide. 2^nd off the layoff and the extra furlong should help him here and trainer Bob Dunham can hit with bombs. The Conductor will key him in the trifecta.

Race 8: 1 1/8 Mile. (Inner Turf) F.Clm 30000n2L

#8 Come Storming (5/2) is the horse to beat in the Conductor’s opinion. However, Mopolka (10/1) is a filly that intrigues him at a price. She pressed a hot pace vs tougher last time and was only beaten 2 ½ lengths. She should work out a better trip up close to a moderate pace today.

Race 9: 1 Mile. OC 62500n2x

#3 Americanus (7/2) – This colt is working well off the layoff and hat shown talent in his young career. In a race devoid of any other pace, the Conductor sees him alone on the early lead and being tough to catch down the stretch.
