POST-SCRATCHES


6th: CLM, 3+, 6f (Empire 6, P3, DD)

Stand alone event between the 2 P5's and pretty attractive as betting proposition with some big prices to utilize while warily respecting 5-2 Mojovation and the 3-1 Dubb entry..

Best Value: #2 Autostrade 12-1 7th
Next Best: #6 Coltandmississippi 5-1 4th
Exotics Use: #5 Aristocratic 6-1 2nd
Super Add: #3 Preamble 15-1 5th


7th: ALW, 3yo, 1m-Inner (P5, G/S, P3, DD)

With the faves (#7 Proven/#8 Lonesome) taking real money, Perjury Trap should be at least a $10 horse and as a son of Blame may exponentially improve as a first time 3yo. Kingmeister now with Shug as part of the Don Adam/Courtland ex-pats and may be way better on the turf being out of excellent GSP Gold d'Oro who won 4 of her 5 on the lawn..

Best Value: #6 Perjury Trap 5-1 4th
Next Best: #7 Proven Strategies 3-1 7th
Exotics Use: #8 Lonesome Fugitive 2-1 2nd
Super Add: #4 Kingmeister 8-1 3rd

11th: NY-MCLM/$40k, F&M-3+, 8.5f-Inner

VERY well-matched group of diploma-seeking state bred fillies. Pletcher drops Micromillion down, adds hood and moves her to turf where sire Micromanage is hitting at a 19% clip (though curiously 0/5 'first time turf')..
