This game is bringing the the Conductor to his knees. Let’s Ride
*Gullet Shot of the Day #1 Rucksack (9/2) – Dropping to the claiming ranks and Rosario hopping aboard, this gelding needs the lead and should get it easily in a race without much pace. Gate to wire.
#8 Nan’s Plan (6/1) – Her debut win at Gulftream would beat this group. Switching back to dirt and dropping in class, she’s more than dangerous.
The Conductor doesn’t want a big day, he needs one. We will execute and we will thrive. Let’s Ride.
#11 Happy Music (8/1) – 2nd off the layoff this filly drops to the claiming ranks for the firt time and has been well bet vs tougher. She draws in as an MTO.
#2 True Prosperity (6/1) – She had a troubled trip last time and she gets back to a route today where she ran her best two back. She’ll run in the exacta at a nice number.
#6 Overheated (10/1) – This girl stretches out to a turf route for the first time and this group is very average. Rosario has hit with some big prices riding for Ray Handal recently.
#2 Tan and Tight (6/5) – Keep it tight, keep it light.
*Gullet Shot of the Day #5 Abraxan (10/1) – She’s dropping to the claiming ranks for the first time and has run on turf and a sloppy track in her last two starts. Her form sprinting on a fast dirt track gives her every chance.
#9 Whatawonderflworld (9/2) – Dropping to her lowest career class level, she ran very well last time vs tougher and looks to get a good setup today with pace to run at.
#3 Chipolata (4/1) – This filly has the back class and figures to beat the favorite #2 Dream Passage (1/1) and will be a much better price. She’s also 1/1 over the Aqueduct surface.
#1 Maru (7/2) – She showed speed vs tougher in her debut and hung on for 3rd. She can run this group off their feet.
Get a nutritious dinner and a good night’s sleep tonight passengers. Its back to battle tomorrow. Let’s Ride.
#1 Freddymo Factor (10/1) – Stretching back out to a route, the Conductor thought she ran better than it looks two back pressing a hot pace. She’s the only horse in this field that has shown early speed. She looks to get a favorable trip.
*Gullet Shot of the Day #4 American Power (6/1) – This colt is a hard knocker and looks to get a perfect setup with an abundance of pace signed on in here. He’ll be flying late.
That was brutal. Onto the next one. Let’s Ride
#4 Fled (5/1) – This gelding found his identity as a turf sprinter this summer. His win two back at Saratoga gives him every chance against this group.
*Gullet Shot of the Day #1 Danny California (8/1) – Stepping up in class, he’s won two in a row by open lengths and is steadily progressing. Against a weak field, the Conductor will take a shot with the hot horse at a nice price.
#6 Harris Bay (7/2) – Cutting back to a sprint after chasing a hot pace going a mile, the Conductor loves this colt.
Swing in a miss yesterday, the Conductor is picking his spots carefully today. Let’s Ride,
#2 Southern Brigade (6/1) – He got cooked in a hot pace last time, so the Conductor will forgive him. His best race came at this distance three starts back and he gets a rider upgrade to Rosario today.
*Gullet Shot of the Day #6 Overtime Olivia (20/1) – This mare is stepping up in class after a victory. She has strong early pace figures and looks to get a favorable trip in a sprint without much early pace. The Conductor will key her in the exact and trifecta.
Solid day with Linda’s Ballet getting home at 7/1 yesterday. Let’s keep the train chugging along heading into the weekend. Let’s Ride.
#9 Arabella Bella (6/1) – She looks to be in a good spot early, forwardly placed in a race without much pace. She’s always around when they hit the wire.
#6 Mrs. S (9/5) – Making her 3rd career start, this filly is drawn well to the outside and has been hammered at the windows in her first two. The Conductor knows she has talent and sees her graduating today.
*Gullet Shot of the Day #2 Tayler’s the Boss (8/1) – 1st off the claim for a much better barn, she takes the blinkers off and her figures fit right in with this group. She likes Aqueduct as well.
#7 Concerned (7/2) – The Conductor isn’t worried about her last effort where she broke poorly in the mud. Her debut win was eye catching and anything around 3/1 here would be a tasty price.
The Conductor can smell a 4/4 Grand Salami in the air. Let’s Ride.
*Gullet Shot of the Day #3 Final Say (8/1) – Dropping to his lowest career class level and switching back to dirt, his figures going this distance give him every chance to graduate today.
#8 Linda’s Ballet (6/1) – She blew away the field in a race taken off the turf last time. This isn’t the toughest group and she’s proven she can win on the lawn as well with a win at Saratoga this summer.
#4 Stay Fond (5/2) – Shortening back to her preferred distance, they are going to fly up front in this one. She looks to get a perfect swoop and pounce setup.
#9 Soul Fight (8/1) – Dropping back to the claiming ranks and cutting back in distance, he’s working well and Rosario stays in the irons.
Thank you to all the brave men and women that have served and are serving. It goes without saying but there are more important things in life than losing all your money betting football this weekend and chasing at the track. Let’s get this boy home today. Let’s Ride.
#2 Mischief Aloof (9/2) – This colt ran a huge late pace figure last time chasing a slow pace. The Conductor thinks the added distance will be his friend and that his price will stay around 5/1.
The Conductor’s brain is too mushy to get complicated today. Keep it light and keep it tight! Let’s Ride.
#3 Newly Minted (7/2) – Classic early move into a hot pace last time and shortening in distance today. She’s a stone cold chilly lock and likely wont be the favorite.
Great capping yesterday by the Conductor. Let’s keep up the momentum with prices winning and running in the exacta. Hell of a Saturday to sit on the couch. Let’s Ride.
#5 Soul Kitchen (15/1) – She’s well bred for the lawn and trainer Jorge Abreu is 23% with a +$1.44 ROI with 1st time starters this year. Irad hops aboard for a barn he rarely rides for as well.
#12 Devoted Kitten (6/1) – The Conductor like this gelding’s maiden breaker last time out. Lezcano has won 4 of his last 5 mounts for Gargan
#3 Golden Brown (12/1) – Switching back to turf, it doesn’t matter what surface or distance he’s trying, he loves to win. This gelding has run well fresh and looks to get a nice trip sitting behind a hot pace today.
*Gullet Shot of the Day #11 Mystic Lancelot (6/1) – He ran huge in his debut win at Saratoga and is steadily progressing for Pletcher. This colt has faced stiff competition and has the most upside in this group.
