COMMENTS: LATE SEPTEMBER is usually well backed by horseplayers and popped to a nice win the last time he returned from a layoff. ALLLNIGHT MOONLIGHT went wire to wire in the last two and neither was very close. He could be hard to catch again today. MOR BIG LEE usually makes up ground at the end of races which should help him the first time he goes long today. I DONT VENMO might be better suited for turn but does carry plenty of late punch and could clean up gimmicks. | ||||

COMMENTS: FREE DROP MADDY is a single candidate for the opening pick 4 and 5 bets. OLIVIA G is always close finishing as a bridesmaid five of five. GUITAR WOMAN has been close to the top pick in two of three matchups. ALPINE MIST has some versatility as she can pressure the leader or close. | ||||

* EXACTA: 1,4,8,9 Box | ||||
* TRIFECTA: 1,4,8,9 Box | ||||
COMMENTS: BRON AND BROW should run the most complete race with the best combination of early and late speed. BIG CHOPPERs trainer Scott Geiner wins at 18 percent taking his horse from a sprint to a route and back to a sprint like today. BERTIES GALAXY runs his best on the front and will be gunning from the gate. YANKEE SEVEN is back to defend his title but will need to run faster today than he did in his last race. | ||||

* EXACTA: 1,6,8,9 Box | ||||
* TRIFECTA: 1,8,9/1,8,9/1,2,6,7,8,9 | ||||
COMMENTS: SHE CANT SING is the defending champion and is working well leading up to her defense of the crown. ADVENTURINGs jockey and trainer combo of Luis Saez and Brad Cox won four of seven together and hit the board 100 percent. NEW YEARS EVE is a real steady high end performer that will charge late but there might not be a lot of speed to chase down. DIDIA won a pair of Group 1s in Argentina but will face the toughest she has seen to date here. | ||||

* TRIFECTA: 2,3,5/2,3,5/1,2,3,5,7,8 | ||||
COMMENTS: WEST WILL POWERs resume hints at a major upgrade in his second race following a layoff. RATTLE N ROLL has powerful late pace and should get a trip he likes with plenty of burn up front. ART COLLECTOR was absolutely brilliant winning his last race with the highest last race speed figure. PIONEER OF MEDINA has two wins with a third and fourth in four at Fair Grounds. The two non wins were versus the likes of EPICENTER. | ||||

COMMENTS: SPOOKY CHANNEL has the best career numbers on grass for this crew and offers good value based on morning line odds. ATONE is working out exceptionally well prepping for this spot including a bullet in last. TWO EMMYS has a strong record at Fair Grounds with four wins along with four seconds and third in 11 races. ANOTHER MYSTERY ran the highest last race speed figure and can win again at his best but come home last at his worst. | ||||

COMMENTS: HOOSIER PHILLY was the heavy favorite against PRETTY MISCHIEVOUS last out. She stumbled out of the box and never recovered. HOOSIER PHILLY pounded PRETTY MISCHIEVOUS by more than 5 lengths in their prior matchup. PRETTY MISCHIEVOUS crushed THE ALYS LOOK when they met two back. SOUTHLAWN could compete for third place but would need something special to beat both of the top two. | ||||

COMMENTS: INSTANT COFFEE is considered one of the top Kentucky Derby contenders right now. He will have a chance to prove it here. KINGSBARN has the best combination of early and late speed in the field through his first two tries. SUN THUNDER will be rolling late with race internals that improved from start to finish in his last. JACES ROAD won his debut and won in his only other first start after a layoff. He runs fresh again today. | ||||
