POST-SCRATCHES
3rd: Damon Runyon-NY, 2yo, 1m-70y (P3, DD)
Agree with Andy Serling’s assertion Tuesday on ATR that if Samraat is engaged early, with stretching sprinter Geaux Mets the likely urger, emergent Deceived, baby brother of Naughty New Yorker, should have every chance to beat him. Turf-to-dirt movers Forever Utopia (Terranova) and Balderdash (Feron) are both from nice families with the Utopia bay being more eligible to like the main track than the grey son of NY-turf stake winner Them There Eyes..
Most Likely: #4 Deceived 9-5 3rd
Next Best: #1 Samraat 6-5 WON ($3.40)
Best Value: #2 Forever Utopia 12-1 2nd
Exotics Use: #6 Geaux Mets 9-2 5th

$24k C/O starts here..
Jacobson ML fave (Coronate) and Brown/Porter fire sale (Paid $420k for Horsepower) appear obvious but Alysaro, Tony D and Snifter have races on page that can find winner’s circle. Tricky P6 event for budget players…

Next Best: #7 Horsepower 7-2 (A) 8th
Best Value: #6 Alysaro 8-1 (B) 7th

5th: OC/S-ALW, F&M-3+, 1m-70y (P4, P3, DD)
Can expect Jacobson will move Persnickity up of Hammy Smith, but be aware that Value Plus filly is stretching out and there’s plenty of pace involved. Sally’s Dream has to be a play against with her main and wet track form considerably below her grass level. All this may be a formula to lean heavily on Lady Gracenote — chased Uno Dou in the Fickle Fanny last week and gets in light here — on your main P6 play. Note that Mess in a Dress, consistent all fall, hit the board in 5 of 7 tries last winter on the inner..
