The Conductor sucked yesterday at Churchill, not what we wanted heading into the weekend. However, we have nice weather today and a chance to make some scores. The Conductor will focus his attention on the late pick 4’s in Louisville and Belmont. Let’s Ride.
Belmont Park Late Pick 4
Race 7: 1 1/16 Mile. (Inner Turf) F.Alw 50000s
This is a spread race for the Conductor, but he’s going to TOSS the morning line favorite #10 Xanthique (5/2) drawn to the far outside.
He’ll use #1 Tizaprincessa (8/1), #4 Sun Summers (7/2), #6 Cockstrikestwelve (6/1), #7 Zandora (8/1), and #9 the Nine O (4/1).
Race 8: 6½ Furlongs. S.Alw 66000n1x
#7 The Big Lebanese (5/1) – Cutting back to a sprint, he looks to get a perfect trip today with plenty of speed to run at. He hasn’t gotten the setup in his prior sprints.
The Conductor will also use #5 Elios Milos (2/1) and #9 Smokin Platinum (3/1).
Race 9: 1 Mile. (Turf) F.100K Wild Applause Stakes
#4 Nova Sol (5/2) – 2nd off the layoff, she ran very well last start in the Hilltop after a troubled trip. Chad Brown will in this race.
The Conductor will also use #6 Blowout (2/1)
Race 10: 6 Furlongs. (Inner Turf) S.MC 40000
*Gullet Shot of the Day #2 Hudson Overpass (12/1) – He split the field vs tougher in his debut and ran sneaky well last time at this level. He dueled, setting a hot pace early and was only beaten 3 ½ lengths even though he finished 10th.
The Conductor will also use #3 Blue Parrot (10/1), #6 Champagne Chiils (4/1) and #7 Jack the Cat (6/1).
Churchill Downs Late Pick 4
Race 8: 1 Mile. F.OC 80000b
#7 In the Mood (6/1) – She ran a very good 2nd last time setting a hot at this level. She’s working even better leading in to today.
The Conductor will also use #2 Clever Serve (5/1) and #3 Devine Queen (7/2).
Race 9: 1 1/16 Mile. (Turf) OC 62500n2x
#2 Altito (30/1) – He’s an absolute bomb the Conductor will use and key in the trifecta. He’s a proven winner on dirt and ran a solid 4th closing into a slow pace last time. He hasn’t had many chances on turf, but his race at Kentucky downs last fall makes him competitive in here.
The Conductor will also use #4 Cowboy Culture (6/1), #6 Dontblamerocket (4/1) and #8 Keep Quiet (5/2).
Race 10: 6 Furlongs. F.Roxelana Overnight Stakes
*Never a Doubt Summer Saturday Night Lock of the Day #2 Covfefe (7/5) – The Conductor will toss #10 Mia Mischeif (8/5) and won’t use any backups in this race. This girl put on an absolute show down at Pimlico last start. She’s the goods.
Race 11: 6½ Furlongs. F.Mdn 95k
#3 Double Axel (3/1) – She ran a hard charging 2nd after a slow start in her debut. Her recent works suggest she’ll graduate today.
#11 Risky Mandate (5/1) – Is the only backup the Conductor will use.
