Race 2: 6 Furlongs. F.Clm 32000

#6 Shimmering Moon (7/2) – 2^nd off the layoff today, she made an early move into a hot pace last start. She’ll be ready to roll here.

Race 3: 7 Furlongs. S.Bertram F. Bongard Stakes 150k

Race 5: 1 Mile. (Turf) OC 622500n2x

#11 Aquaphobia (6/1) – 3^rd off the layoff, he ran a strong late pace figure closing into a slow pace last time. With plenty of speed in this one, he should have every opportunity.

Race 6: 6 ½ Furlongs. F.Mdn 75k

*Gullet Shot of the Day #2 Devamani (9/2) – He got absolutely no pace to run at last time and has the best last kick in this group. He also gets back to his favorite distance today. The Conductor will hammer him at that morning line.

Race 8: 6 Furlongs. (Turf) S.Mdn 62k

Underneath Uppercut #4 Imperio D (15/1) – This colt showed good early speed in his debut in a race taken off the turf. The Conductor sees him taking a big step forward on the lawn, where Rudy Rod wanted him to start. He will key him in the exacta and tri.

Race 6: 6 Furlongs. (Inner Turf) S.Alw 66000n1x

#8 Bourbon Mission (3/1) – This gelding didn’t get any pace to run at an ran a strong late pace figure last time. He should get a better setup in this one and will appreciate the extra ½ furlong.

Race 8: 1 Mile. (Turf) Mdn 62k

Race 1: 6½ Furlongs. F.Clm 16000n2L

#2 Ideational (20/1), #10 Positive Skew (8/1) – Both of these fillies are exiting victories from the Chad Brown barn. Chad drops horses below their talent level routinely to pick up wins because he can. The Conductor thinks both runners have a major chance and can spice up the exotics.

#6 Carot (9/2) – Dropping back to the claiming ranks, this colt has very fast early pace figures and his race two back at this track and distance will give him every chance.
