The West Point Thoroughbreds Mile Distaff Prep Grade III
1. 7361 ALBERTA GOLD bertaal 3/1. A 4yo filly by Forty Niner is the #7th ranked in this division. She has raced at 8f thirteen times with 7 wins, coming in allowance, stakes and a G3 race. Is most recently coming off a 8f race in A G1 where she came closing from midpack to finish 2nd to the #3 in here. Six of her last 7 have come at 8f where she won a G1 and G2 and placed in a G1 and G2. She can stay near the front or midpack so it can help her, and she can win this.
2. 84431 SPICEGIRL tresstable 2/1. A 5yo mare by Southern Halo is the co 2/1 favorite in here. She’s the 14th ranked in this division. She’s tried this distance fourteen times with 4 wins. Her 3 highest career SP’s came at 8f, as a 3yo she won the 1000 Guineas with her career high 110 SP, then last year won a G1 and G2 at 8f with a 108 SP in both. From her last 5 races she’s run in 2 graded 8f races but ran 5th and 6th with a 95SP and 99SP. She’s a front, near the lead type of runner, only if she can regain her form from middle of last year, she could win.
3. 93990 THIRTEENTH DATE congie5 7/2. A 4yo filly by Gone West is 8th ranked in this division. She’s tried this distance 7 times and has 4 wins. Those wins came in Graded stakes and allowance victories. Her last 5 races have all been at 8f and 4 of them were G1 events, she won 2 and placed in the other 2. Her most recent was her only start this year in the Sexy Muffins Classic G1 where she closed from far behind to win going away with a career high 107 SP. Is improving and is the only real closer in here and I think she would be my main pick to win.
4. 93777 COMPENSATION lenny12 2/1. A 4yo filly by Seeking the Gold is the 30th ranked in this division and has 9 wins from 20 starts, also is the other co 2/1 favorite. She’s tried this distance 9 times and has 5 wins; those wins came in Graded stakes and allowance races. She is also another one who can race near the lead or midpack. She’s won her last 3 races at 8f; a stakes ending of last year and a G1 two starts back and a stakes LTO. In the G1 2 starts back she got a career high 105 SP winning and seems to be improving as well. She also looks like she can win, but she seems to like the wet track more as those last 2 wins came on a wet track.
5. 84062 GRETNA(IRE) breed2sell 4/1. A 4yo filly by Generous is the 231st ranked in here and the longest shot. She’s tried this distance 10 times and has 4 wins coming in stakes and allowance races. Her most 2 recent 8f tried have come in G2 events but she faced the boys in both, but didn’t farewell finishing 9th and 4th. Before that she finished 3rd in a allowance and won a stakes at 8f with a career high 104 SP. She’s a midpack runner; but hasn’t fared well in Graded races, so I doubt she can win, but she could still come in the top 3.
