Derby weekend is already here. Two days of stacked cards and great betting opportunities. Just remember, you can win a lot more money Saturday when you stack coal on Friday. Skip
Race 3: 1 1/8 Mile. (Turf) Mdn 120k
#3 Profound (4/1) – This filly was hammered at the windows in her debut at Saratoga last summer and had a terrible trip. Now she returns on Derby Day with a nice inside draw and gets Lasix for the first time. The DeVaux barn is heating back up and this filly will show her true ability today.
#12 Moon Channel (6/1) – This filly ran a monster 2nd last time at Keeneland. She started slow, but closed well for 2nd into a tepid pace. The post is a concern today, but she can’t be ignored off her debut.
Race 7: 1 1/16 Mile. F.G1 Fasig-Tipton La Troienne Stakes
#4 Raging Sea (9/2) – The Conductor sees Chad Brown taking down #2 Thorpedo Anna (2/5) today. The other Chad Brown runner, #5 Randomized (6/1), will be used as a rabbit to soften up Thorpedo Anna early. Raging Sea should sit a dream trip and pull off the upset.
Race 8: 1 1/8 Mile. (Turf) F.Modesty G3 Modesty Stakes
#7 She Feels Pretty (6/5) – Not a big price, but the Conductor thinks this filly is a cinch. She’s a monster and always runs well regardless of trip. This group can’t beat her.
Race 11: 1 1/8 Mile. F.G1 Longines Kentucky Oaks
#14 Quietside (8/1) – With the scratch of #8 Five G (12/1), this race doesn’t have as much pace as anticipated. This helps Quietside as she should be able to get into a good outside stalking position heading into the first turn. As long as she doesn’t get hung 4-wide, she should be in an ideal spot. She’s sitting at 9/1 right now in the win pool and that’s a major overlay for the Conductor. Let’s whack a square price in the Oaks and head into Saturday with ample gunpowder.
