4/15 (OP): Apple Blossom (G1), Count Fleet (G3)
 

Secret Oath looked fantastic last time, but I’m guessing Clariere gives a better account of herself and wins here. She’s just too good a horse.

Keeping my fingers crossed for a few more hanging efforts from Secret Oath the rest of the season before the light bulb goes off in Lukas's head to run her in the FM Sprint.

Of course, he'll probably go for the Dirt Mile instead...

From what I’ve seen of Munnys Gold, I don’t know that I like her chances more in that race.

Whether her awesome form can translate to open company at a top tier track or not, the chances of offspring of Munnings seeing out a full campaign (especially in that barn) is fairly slim.

She already had to have 6 months off after her debut at Monmouth last summer.

That aside, we're obviously well in advance of making any concrete predictions but 7 furlongs and a full field of older horses for a fragile, front-running, 3yo is more often than not a shaky proposition. Of course in this day an age, the Del Mar surface on the day will probably be conducive to speed and with the way the BC has been trending, it could be a light field a la Gamine's gifted win in 2020...

Maybe the open Sprint may be a better option for Munnys Gold. Tougher competition but the 6f distance might be better.
