Diane Alvarado claimed Beckham Bend, for Jacobson, from Clement on 2/15 for $35K, then ran him back for a nice 2nd in an allowance race 3/06.

Tomorrow, she runs back the runaway Vindicat, who she took out of a maiden claimer, again for Jacobson, on 3/04 from Nick Zito and LaPenta. And, Zito and LaPenta have a runaway winner of their own, last out, in the race. I wonder if Zito and gang are sweating at all. I mean, they must be confident that Just a Coincidence is better than Vindicat.

I wouldn't point this out, except that Alvarado seems to be OK and Vindicat wiped out the field last out.

Oh, and there are some others in there as well. Shug, in particular, is hoping for a pace collapse.
