June 27th recap
Hot and humid conditions once again on Saturday. Early/pressing types dominated on the main. Turf course seemed to favor stalkers and closers.
Went 5-for10 with my top selections.
Hat trick for Sidney Lejeune Jr.
Made it two-for-two with my Horses To Watch . Just Plain Wayne ($4.40) got the job done on Friday, and it was Burt’s A Stitch ($2.60) today. Both recent graduates hail from the fine Michelle Lovell barn.
Best Bet Sligo Joe did not have the cleanest trip in the 7th. He missed 2nd by a head and is worth following. SoCal transplant Angelonmyshoulder was a visually impressive winner for the 2nd straight time here. Might be headed to the local turf stakes ranks for George Northrop Jr.
June 27th preview
A 9-race card on tap for Sunday, and highlights include a couple of competitive turf routes. More of the same is expected in regards to the hot weather…sunny and 96. Pick 6 carryover at $2,900.
Sense of Home (race 4) is my best bet on the card. He earned improved pace figs here last out, and he might not look back in this spot.
