2) entry king
darkstars16 farm
r edwards 7/1
Out of the darkstars16 farm is this three year old UPSTART colt out of the Sim Mare SNITZEL DANCER. He comes in off back to back Stakes starts where he finished outside the money with the most recent being a twelfth place finish at the “Ransomaffirmedsir Turf Juvenile”. Prior to that he had his second career win at a 4.5 furlong dash down under. Has fared best at shorter distances and may find this track too much to handle and unfortunately may fail to hit the board again.
5) red crossbill
larrcamp26 farm
r reeser 9/2
Out of the larrcamp26 farm is this three year old MALIBU MOON colt out of the Sim Mare SONIC WIND. Had a nice runner-up finish last time out when he ran 90 speed against an always competitive field from his Elite Racing Club Residency in their season ending “Turf Colt Juvy Championship”. He had a nice two year old season as he failed to finish in the money in just two of his eighty starts. He will be in the mix here today and may turn some heads out of the five hole.
7) backball
tees11 farm
k jantzen 13/1
Out of the tees11 farm is this three year old HOLD ME BACK colt out of the Sim Mare MUTZNUTZ. He has finished in the money in eight of his nine career starts including two wins. He ran in his first Stakes race last time out and did not disappoint as he ran a career best 82 speed and finished a close second to winner MOB JOY. Speed has increased with each start and he will need that to continue here today if he hopes to finish in the money.
4) hot paprika
kiddfan farm
d silver 7/2
Out of the kiddfan farm is this three year old TOROK colt out of the Sim Mare SPICES DOWNUNDER. He comes in smoking hot with four straight wins including an impressive easy victory at the “Like It Local IX Championships” where he breezed 88 speed over 7 furlongs. He should find a spot on the board but will need his best to keep his winning streak alive. This is a nice colt to keep an eye on as he could have a great three year old campaign.
6) planning
beng farm
g owans 8/5
Out of the beng farm is this three year old OASIS DREAM colt out of the Sim Mare DESIRED JOY. He has finished in the money in all six of his career starts with his last being a runner-up finish at the “High Devil Turf Juvenile” where he blazed 94 speed over 8.5 furlongs. His two starts prior to that saw him finish third in back to back G2 races. We may see him reach 100+ speed here today and if I was a betting man I would put my money on number six for the win.
1) jitter away
tfon6
farm
i thomas 3/1
Out of the tfon6 farm is this three year old ZELZAL gelding out of the Sim Mare JITTERBUGGIN’. He comes in off a big win at an allowance race in New York where he ran 89 speed over 7 furlongs. This was his first start as a gelding which followed three straight Stakes starts where he finished off the board. He is returning to the track on just three weeks rest but hopes his recent performance will be repeated her against this nice field of seven.
3) tamazoo
rocksters4 farm
d stair 24/1
Out of the rocksters3 farm is this three year old TAMARKUZ colt out of the Sim Mare LAUREN BACALL. He has finished in the money in just two of his seven starts and has finished off the board in three straight. Two previous Stakes starts have resulted in fourteenth and seventh place finishes and I unfortunately don’t see things changing in this one. He will be overmatched here today against this group and will not be a factor.
