Solid return to the track Friday at Aqueduct as Mangetsu got the job done at 9/1. Let’s keep the throttle down and atone for Saratoga’s sins. Let’s Ride.
Race 4: 1 1/16 Mile. (Turf) F.S.MC 40000
#4 Starlight Dancer (6/1) – The Conductor liked this filly’s 1st start routing last time. She was 3-wide and uncovered on the 1st turn and still finished well for 2nd. Starlight Dancer should improve off of that effort.
#11 Dubawi Wowie (8/1) – This filly also improved moving into the Michelle Giangiulio barn last time. She was checked after start, then made a nice early wide move on the turn. She draws a tough post today, but will be a big price. If Carmouche can work out a trip from the outside, she is very dangerous.
Race 7: 1 1/16 Mile. (Turf) Mdn 90k
*Gullet Shot of the Day #5 Barricade (9/2) – This colt ran much better than his speed figure shows in his debut. He was well back behind a tepid pace and showed best late kick from the pack in the stretch. With a fair pace today, he’s the one to beat.
Race 10: 1 3/8 Mile. (Turf) F.G3 Fasig-Tipton Jockey Club Oaks Invitational Stakes
#10 Macanga (10/1) – The Conductor touted this filly yesterday and she scratched out of that race for this spot. He was really impressed with her effort two starts back. She was dueled into the ground by the Chad Brown rabbit and still hung on for 3rd. Last time Johnny V tried to rate her and she was having none of it, fighting him the entire way. They’ll let her roll on the front end today and the Conductor can see her stealing this race. He is skeptical of the quality in this field.
