After a poor choice in the fifth race yesterday I find the fifth today an interesting race. In a field dominated by closers the #3 Our Big Wally stretches out from 5 1/2 furlongs to 1 1/16 miles from the 3 hole.This is the only horse in the trainers barn and over 5 years she has a respectable record although her turf stats leave a lot to be desired.
Oscar Mancilla will try to take this one wire to wire in his only mount of the day.I'm not familiar with the breeding stats concerning this horses stamina but find it interesting to see Turn To Reason as the broodmare sire.His blood used to show up in Maryland breds on a daily basis 30 years ago and I can't remember the last time I've seen his name.
Good luck to everyone today !
