AQUEDUCT


POST-SCRATCHES


4th: CLM, F&M-4+, 6f (P6, P3, DD)

$15k P6 C/O starts here..

Very tricky start to the P6 sequence with sackful of in-n-out types. Superstitious Love is 2 lengths faster than the rest of the field early and has potential to be loose and steal it..

Best Value: #5 Superstitious Love 5-1 WON ($9.90)
Next Best: #1 Smarty Bull 5-2 3rd
Exotics Use: #7 Salvar 7-2 5th
Super Add: #3 Born Flirt 12-1 DNF-Clipped heels, lost rider

6th: OC/S-ALW, 4+, 8.5f (P4, P3, DD)

Exotics Use: #5 Drink With Pride 5-2 3rd


7th: NY-OC/N2X, 3+, 6f (P3, DD)

Going to be interesting to see who makes the lead. Group has potential to get spirited up front but also for riders to look at each other out of the gate. Channing Hill gets to survey everything from outside and react accordingly..

Best Value: #1 Isn'tlovejustgrand 12-1 4th
Next Best: #3 Obviously Tuesday 6-1 7th
Exotics Use: #5 Toque 8-1 2nd
