Race 9- FORAY
Sadler/Hronis Racing bought this horse after it easily broke it's maiden on the turf at Delaware. It was quite an effort. From gate to wire this horse was all in. Used a real quick hi-headed stride. He tried hard. I guess he could win again, but that hi headed action can get him tagged, too. I'll pass.

Good calls! Foray went off as the 2nd fav at 3-1 and finished 10th of 11, beaten 7.5 lengths by the 9th place horse.
Boompa went off as the 3rd fav at 5-1, and the first 3 favs finished in betting order. So the bettors had it pretty well capped. Boompa missed 1st place by over 10 lengths.
Nice return effort, but the question now is will Scuds improve with his 2nd off the layoff, or will he bounce?
