Race 2: 1 Mile. (Turf) OC 25000n1x
#7 Rothschild (8/1) – This colt impressed the Conductor last fall with some strong efforts despite poor trips. He has a class edge over this field and is working well for a new barn. Making his first start as a 4-year-old and adding Lasix for the first time today, he has every right to improve. 5/1 or better is fair.
Race 7: 1 Mile. (Turf) Colonel Liam Stakes
#3 Enterdadragon (8/1) – This gelding was keen fighting Maragh early into the first turn last time. Even though he wasted all that energy, he still finished well against a slow pace and frontrunner flow. Now getting a turf rider upgrade to Davis, the Conductor sees Enterdadragon getting a much more favorable trip today. Anything close to 8/1 would be a treat.
Race 13: 1 1/16 Mile. G2 Coolmore Fountain of Youth Stakes
#2 Sovereignty (3/1) – 3/1 is as low as the Conductor will take on this colt, but he has the most upside in the field. He’s steadily improving and Mott has been very patient with him. He returns off the bench to make his first start as a three-year-old and the Conductor is expecting a peak effort that vaults him into the Derby spotlight. He has plenty of talent.
Race 14: 1 3/8 Mile. (Turf) G2 Mac Diarmida Stakes
#4 Missed the Cut (9/2) – This is a wide open race, but the Conductor will trust this Cherie DeVaux runner off the bench. He was in great form last year, so much so that they gave him a shot across the pond vs the big boys. He’s had plenty of time off since that last poor performance, and the Conductor likes the confidence to put him right back in a Grade 2 off the bench. The Conductor trusts DeVaux to have him ready to fire.
