After the Pegasus weekend, all the fair-weather fans put their fancy clothes away and don’t think about horse racing until the first Saturday in May. The true grinders and passengers show up and punch the clock on Monday in Youngstown, OH. If they’re smart they use Iron Bets too. Skip.
Race 4: 1 Mile. F.Clm 7500n3L
#4 Queen Lexi (8/1) – This filly ran well sprinting last time, closing into a slow pace while being in the parking lot on the turn. Now with two sprints under her belt, she stretches out to a route in her 3rd start off a short break. Trainer Tommy short is 19% with a +$0.57 ROI this year with this training pattern. The Conductor would love over 5/1 in this wide open race.
Race 5: 1 Mile. Clm 15000
#2 Rose’s Pepino (9/2) – This gelding runs monstrous late pace figures every time. He had no chance last time being far back early behind a tepid pace. If this field stays in tact, he should get a much more favorable pace scenario today. He will be flying late.
Race 6: 1 Mile. Clm 4000n2y
#3 Endless Sunset (15/1) – This gelding moved into a much improved barn last start and showed more early speed in the slop vs tougher. Now he drops in class and gets back to fast dirt track for the first time in ages. His last start on fast dirt was good enough to win this race. Endless Sunset is the Conductor’s favorite longshot on the card.
