Not quite spelled the same as the candy bar but it\'s a very slow day. So much so Richiebee said he\'s not playing, Fairmont called it the worst Saturday of the year, Jimbo hasn\'t bothered me and Belmont Bob is at the farmers market.
Anyway;
No pick 4 here so we have a stakes pick 3 of a pair of 2 turn 7f heats and a 3 turn 1 1/8.
The Robert Hilton:
JJ has the 9 hole on the 7/2 favorite and spots weight, no where near enough early foot for this heat not to get hung out on the first bend. Bull rings, I do Love\'em. Poseidon\'s Prize has the rail, one of 2 locals in the heat and he\'s done this before. Cool Arrow had triple crown aspirations but is back to reality off a super work and gets an extra punch. Farley flashed a lot of speed in his only dirt race, green to brown with blinkers on. 1,3,5
The Sugar Maple:
Navarro with 4 in the mountains today spots weight but has JJ on this one and working razor sharp. Enough said if he made curfew on race night eve. 4
CT Classic:
Stanford won this event last year, has the rail and what\'s with equal weights for
4yr olds and up? Too short of a price to use in a 3 with Navarro. FD does not bet
deli\'s to win pickles.
Sunny Ridge, Matt King Coal & Imperative all have more than a punchers chance to beat the heavy favorite. Imperative was a tad shorter in the win pool than Stanford in this race last year with a 4W 3rd turn, not naming that rider. JJ today so he gets an extra punch. 2,4,5
Good luck,
Frank D.
