12/18: Aqueduct ($163k P5 C/O)
AQUEDUCT
POST-SCRATCHES
1st: NY-MCLM/$25k, F&M-3+, 1m (P5, P3, DD)
$163k P5 C/O starts here..
First NYRA P5 C/O could generate pool approaching $1,000,000 and despite reasonable field size sequence of 7x6x6x10x7, looks VERY slippery. First leg invites heavy reliance on Wild Image SCR'D, but how confident should you be in 5yo mare with very little speed? Adds blinkers and comes back 2nd/layoff with work in between..
Most Likely: #5 Bubbe Zena 6-1 3rd
Best Value: #1 Nagging Gigee 10-1 6th
Next Best: #3 Quibbler 5-2 WON ($5.30)
2nd: CLM, F&M-3+, 6f (P4, P3, DD)
Another spot that suggests opp to focus on heavy fave with Midnight Champagne (3-5) undeniable as speed and wire threat. But Rock Show and Little Gidding are within a couple lengths of the choice and with Kelly's Prize and Swakopmund in possession of efforts that can win this..
Most Likely: #2 Midnight Champagne 3-5 WON ($2.80)
Best Value: #3 Rock Show 12-1 3rd
Next Best: #6 Little Gidding 4-1 4th
3rd: NY-OC/N1X, 2yo-F, 8.5f (P3, DD)
Nice group of credentialed NYB 2yo fillies and power players will buy the race with the all button as even 20-1 Finger Lakes invader Sacred Season is not without chance routing for the first time. On the topic of 2 turns, Singsong and 'other' Pletcher Queens Tiara are lone entrants with that experience, albeit on the turf..
Best Value: #2 Singsong 5-1 WON ($10.00)
Next Best: #4 Here Comes Rosie 9-5 2nd
Exotics Use: #5 Queens Tiara 6-1 5th
4th: MCLM/$50k, 2yo, 1m-70y (P6, P3, DD)
$21k P6 C/O starts here..
Three MSW/MCLM droppers the glaring participants here, with KMc's Bunyaan getting 2nd start Lasix while stretching out from the rail..
Most Likely: #1 Bunyaan 4-1 5th
Best Value: #3 Core Portfolio 8-1 WON ($21.10)
Next Best: #6 Bibbo 3-1 7th
Exotics Use: #10 Tom's Gift 6-1 2nd
