The Conductor will never play Fair Grounds again. Let’s Ride.
Race 1: 6 Furlongs. MC 20000
*Never a Doubt Sunday Night Scary Preventer But Not Really They Can’t Be Prevented Tonight Lock of the Day #3 Racing Raven (4/5) – Cutting back to a sprint, he has to beat this horrendous field.
Race 2: 6½ Furlongs. Clm 40000b
#3 Bootlegger (4/1) – 3rd off the layoff and dropping in class, he looks to be a new animal this year. His last two races give him every chance.
Race 3: 5½ Furlongs. S.Mdn 60k
#1 Holey Matrimony (9/2) – Debuting for a hot barn, this colt is well bred and working well.
Race 4: 6 Furlongs. F.MC 20000
#2 Give Me a Hug (3/1) – 2nd off the layoff and cutting back to a sprint this filly has been well bet vs much tougher. The Conductor needs a big hug after Vegas.
Race 5: 6 Furlongs. F.OClm 75000
#6 Movie Score (5/1) – She was only beaten a length two starts back vs similar with a solid figure and Ryerson is 25% with a +$0.50 ROI this year 1st off the claim.
Race 6: 1 Mile. S.Mdn 60k
#6 Papa Jim (4/1) – 2nd off the layoff and stretching out for the 1st time he ran a very good 3rd last start with a tough trip.
Race 7: 7 Furlongs. S.Alw 64000n1x
*Gullet Shot of the Day #5 Shamrock Kid (9/2) – He ran a huge fire last start in the slop. He’s in good form and has a pace edge over this group. 9/2 would be stealing.
Race 8: 1 Mile. F.Alw 70000n1x
#8 Storm Rising (7/2) – She was bumped at the break and still demolished her competition in her debut. She has talent.
Race 9: 1 Mile. S.Clm 32000
#1 Oh K Funnybone (6/1) – He’s steadily progressing and stretching back out to a mile, where he has his lone win.
Sunland Park
Race 11: 1 1/8 Mile. G3 Sunland Park Derby
#2 Anotherwistafate (3/1) – #1 Much Gusto (8/5) is clearly the Baffert horse to beat, but he’ll likely go off at 2/5 in here. This colt shipping in from Golden Gate will likely go off higher than 3/1 and the Conductor will take a swing with him. He’s won three in a row going away in gate to wire fashion in San Francisco. For anyone who pays attention to Golden Gate, its impossible to go gate to wire. He has potential.
