5th: 20th Matt Winn, 3yo, 8.5f (P5, P3, DD)

McCraken likely of course, but Colonelsdarktemper broke through to new level last out and will get first run behind solid DWL stretchout Aquamarine..

6th: 28th Wise Dan (G2), 3+, 8.5f-T (P4, P3, DD)

Nice group top to bottom. Feels like pace will be honest. Given opportunity to go narrow elsewhere, I’d spread liberally here..

Best Value: #6 Conquest Panthera 6-1 3rd
Next Best: #7 Pleuven 3-1 6th
Exotics Use: #2 Bondurant 8-1 4th
Super Add: #8 Blofeld 10-1 5th

7th: 42nd Fleur De Lis (G2), F&M-3+, 9f (P5, P3, DD)

Yes Forever Unbridled is very likely, but note that she didn’t fire off 5+ month break in 2015 and today she returns off 7+ months. That said, if she doesn’t run her A race, where do you turn? Doesn’t look like Apology will get away easy up front with Big World close at hand. After that Walkabout, Carrumba and Romantic Vision look competitive..

Most Likely: #1 Forever Unbridled 4-5 WON ($4.20)
Best Value: #6 Romantic Vision 8-1 8th
Next Best: #5 Big World 6-1 4th
Exotics Use: #3 Carrumba 6-1 3rd

8th: 36th Stephen Foster H. (G1), 3+, 9f (P4, P3, DD)

There is authentic front end company for Gun Runner to his left and right, so it will be interesting to see how Geroux approaches the run to the turn. Honorable Duty looks like the most obvious threat

Most Likely: #3 Gun Runner 4-5 WON ($3.00)
Next Best: #4 Honorable Duty 6-1 2nd
Best Value: #2 Breaking Lucky 8-1 3rd
Exotics Use: #7 Texas Chrome 12-1 6th

Once again, the 3yo filly turfers provide a fun wagering scenario..
