Steve, What do you like about the Zito horse in the 3rd ? He seems like one who has had his chances already, and this race looks ripe for a first time starter IMO.

Could be.. I'm not crazy about the race overall. Zito has begun to fire on all cylinders this week and 'Coincidence' at Churchill sure looked like a horse that wants three-quarters and little more. 2 of his 3 NY sprints win this unless someone jumps up. And on that topic, note the eye-popping 33.3 move from the Breen runner (Mighty Score) last week. 33.3? How often do you see 33.3 workouts? I'm not sure i've EVER seen one. Romans' Maswary might be something, but that's an alarming gap between the last start and the one work. Was he at a private training center? I hope so...

A few I find interesting today at Gulf:

2nd: #6 Closing Number. Ran well in last year's Hallandale Beach Stakes. Hasn't done much since, his most recent was a sprint against a pretty contentious field. Possible reach, but 20-1 ML.

4th: Agree with Steve in including #3 Intense Elvira. Last dirt sprint was lifetime top. Previous turf effort was better than it appeared, in my opinion.

10th: #8 Watch Smartly off long layoff, obviously something went wrong, but it that has been righted, chased some good ones 300 some days ago.
