What a late pick 5 sequence for a Thursday at Aqueduct with full, competitive fields. What more could a Ductor ask for? Skip.
Race 5: 1 Mile. (Turf) F.Mdn 80k
*Throat Shot Thursday Whack of the Day #6 Palm Court (15/1) – She was bet for favoritism in her debut and didn’t run a step. Then last time in a race taken off the turf, she ran decent with a very wide trip. Stretching out for the first time and switching back to her preferred surface today, the Conductor like her upside.
Race 6: 1 Mile. S.Alw 72000n1x
#5 Advanced Strategy (8/1) – Switching back to the Aqueduct dirt today, he ran a very strong 2nd last time closing into a slow pace. He’s shown he can run on dirt and looks to get a nice setup here with a hot pace to run at.
Race 7: 1 Mile. Clm 16000n2L
#6 Dangerous Edge (6/1) – Stretching out to a route for the first-time 2nd off the claim for Noda, he gets the Conductor’s spider senses tingling. He has the figs to beat this group and looks to get a good trip.
Race 8: 6 Furlongs. (Outer Turf) F.S.Alw 72000n1x
#5 Fresco (8/5) – A beaten favorite in her last two starts at Aqueduct makes the Conductor uneasy, but she should beat this field. If she doesn’t win, anyone can. She moved early last time and she gets a rider upgrade to Rosario here.
Race 9: 6 Furlongs. MC 20000
#3 Lady’s Boy (10/1) – He was well bet in his debut at Saratoga and showed brief before fading on a sloppy track. He’ll get her first try on a fast track today and could surprise at a big number.
