A\u00a0compact field of four will go postward Saturday in the Dayfly’s Groom Turf Sprint.\u00a0 It is carded as the sixteenth and final race on the\u00a0program and is\u00a0restricted to three year olds.\u00a0 The distance is six and one half furlongs and the grass course\u00a0is expected to be firm.\u00a0 Let’s meet the contestants in post position order.<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>

Breaking from the hedge will be the favorite, Australia’s Greatwesterntrail<\/FONT><\/STRONG>.\u00a0 The son of Denman and Radar Love (Fu Peg x Storm Cat) is riding the crest of a six stake winning streak.\u00a0 The flashy chestnut has not tasted defeat since last November.\u00a0 His victories have come at four different distances from five to six and one half furlongs, all on the turf.\u00a0 When asked if his colt will be stretching out or trying dirt in the near future, Australia replied, “Is Drew Brees going to become a punter?\u00a0 Will Derek Jeter be a pitcher?\u00a0 If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”\u00a0 Greatwesterntrail certainly ain’t broke.<\/DIV>

Sonofaus Stables\u00a0sends out their undefeated William’s Mont<\/FONT><\/STRONG> for his biggest test yet.\u00a0 The impeccably bred son of Montjeu\u00a0is the first foal of stakes winning Montana Storm (Giant’s Causeway x Northern Dancer).\u00a0 William’s Mont is two for two in his career thus far.\u00a0 His victories both came in Queensland and are notable for what I consider two key reasons.\u00a0 First of all, his speed figure jumped ten points from his debut to his second start.\u00a0 Also, he skipped right over nw2 and won a nw3 last time out.\u00a0 Those are both very positive signs.\u00a0 Couple that with his breeding and top shelf conditioner and you have a recipe for continued success.<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
Lordpye will saddle second choice Two For Fifty<\/FONT><\/STRONG>.\u00a0 The well traveled son of Pentire and One For Forty Nine (who was actually eight for fifty one) has been trying grade I company\u00a0recently.\u00a0 Two back he was beaten only five lengths in the 2000 Guineas.\u00a0 Last time out he was simply outrun in the twelve furlong Japanese Derby.\u00a0 Two For Fifty has the best career speed figure among the four starters.\u00a0 He posted a 104 in March chasing the well intended Ten W Thirty in an Indiana stake.\u00a0 Andy’s colt should benefit greatly from the change in distance and company.\u00a0 Beware.<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
Angels From Above<\/FONT><\/STRONG> has won two in a row.\u00a0 Last time out the son of Lemon Drop Kid and Angel’s Grace won an Indonesian stake\u00a0easily as the odds on choice.\u00a0 His overall form is excellent and Ben Gowans has risen to the\u00a0top\u00a0tier\u00a0of trainers worldwide.\u00a0 It will be no shock if Angels From Above carries his familiar blue and black colors to victory on Saturday.\u00a0\u00a0<\/DIV><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
