AQUEDUCT

POST-SCRATCHES

8th: 138th Withers (G3), 3yo, 9f (DD)

Distance the question to float here and Servis choosing to get it answered early on the Trail with Firenze Fire. Meanwhile, we know Avery Island & Marconi want the trip. Solid, experienced Bal Harbour ships up from FL and provides some value. Six line up and without a great deal of pace, this is a chess match among the jocks..

SCR NOTE ~ California Night SCR’ing from Withers leaving no authentic speed.. Avery Island and an aggressive Carmouche on Bal Harbour likely spar sparingly.

Best Value: #3 Bal Harbour 6-1 5th
Next Best: #2 Marconi 3-1 3rd
Exotics Use: #4 Avery Island 8-5 WON ($4.30)
Super Add: #1 Firenze Fire 9-5 2nd

P4 linking Dania Beach, Bob Lewis & Holy Bull starts here..

Murky bunch necessitating the need for more than half of them to start P4 successfully. 4-6-8-9 are the core with 0-13 Big Auk & 0-22 Catapult Jack far from impossible..

SANTA ANITA

POST-SCRATCHES

5th: 80th Bob Lewis (G3), 3yo, 8.5f (P5, P3, DD, X-C P4 Leg C)

Not sure why there isn’t more love for Peace into this, but as discussed with West Coast observers all week, Mandella putting blinkers on AFTER a win screams fine tuning for better. Hood will come in handy here too for staying close, as Lombo will stretch them out further than people might expect. Regulate laying in the weeds for Baffert. Pepe Tono won’t sneak up on anyone today. Shivermetimbers has been stuck in 2nd gear. Ayacara sneaky dangerous getting back on main track while adding blinks..

Most Likely: #7 Peace 3-1 5th
