Cloudy stunk, but at least Emory was the lock the Conductor thought she was at a short price Thursday at Aqueduct. Let’s get a few prices home today along with another cinch. Skip.

Race 7: 1 1/8 Mile. OC 62500n2x

# 1 Archie the Giza (5/1) – This gelding’s race two back behind Kingsbarn was good enough to win today. The Conductor will excuse his last effort, where he moved early into a quick pace, at a shorter distance than he prefers. Archie the Giza will like the added distance today and he gets a rider upgrade to the red hot Flavian Prat. The Conductor likes the Churchill shipper vs this average Aqueduct allowance field.

Race 8: 1 3/8 Mile. G2 Brooklyn Stakes

#6 Next (4/5) – Another Churchill shipper, this gelding has been consistent and dominant in his marathon dirt stakes races. Nobody in this field can warm him up and he takes his game wherever he ships. Next is your lock today.

Race 9: 1 1/16 Mile. (Turf) F.SMdn 75k

*Gullet Shot of the Day #8 Bobby M’s Girl (12/1) – The Conductor has been waiting for this filly to run back since her debut at Saratoga. She was checked into 1st turn, checked sharply again on the 2nd turn, blocked in stretch and still full of run late. This was a very sneaky big effort that she should improve upon today. The Conductor was hoping she would show up with a new rider aboard, but we’ll be compensated with the price. C’mon Katie Davis give her a fair trip.
