Default Lentenor's turf debut

http://www.bloodhorse.com/horse-raci...queduct-nov-28

http://cs.bloodhorse.com/blogs/nican...run-again.aspx (list of starters)

He's in the 3rd (12:53pm EST) going 1 1/16 on the turf at Aqueduct this Saturday. Matz said it's a pretty tough group. Thoughts? I haven't looked at those horses beyond a quick scan.

Imaging is clearly the horse to beat, and One Sky might be OK, but other than that it's not a particularly tough field. I'll be trying to beat Lentenor, but if he's half of the hype, he'll hit the board for sure.

Should be one of the chalks and is a logical contender.

Still on the turf as of 11:00. Pletcher horse doesn't look bad. Chad Brown (Upgrade) has good numbers with horses making their debut on turf, although it is a small sample. Working steady since end of Sep.

I'm going to spread w/ bombs in this race - I don't like the way the Shug horse hung last time.

The 4 Highveldt Storm has some turf pedigree and I like Jerkens on turf.

The 7 Quiescent Hit reminds me of The Mailet - a 43-1 first time turfer Levine won with last month.

I also think the 10 is a little interesting and think he'll be higher than 6-1.

The Dutrow horse scares me a little.

the 6 is the one im most scared of..he may have hung but that was a soft
turf..the 3 has a bit of upside imo. the 5 in the second really looks like a upsetter..

The 3 is scratched in Race 3 - I liked him a little too.

I agree w/ you on the 5 in the 2nd.
