One may wonder why a stakes event for two year olds fillies and mares drew the attention of only two legitimate entries.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>As a owner, I wonder how I could have missed out on this opportunity.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>With two of the four entries- computer-owned, the race comes down to two other runners.<\/A><\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

She is returning to a track that she won on in her last outing.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Her easy allowance victory prompted ownership to decide to keep her in Louisiana<\/st1:place><\/st1:State> and make her return this event.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>That decision may prove to be a wise one, despite going up against a 1\/5 favorite.<\/P>

She brings a two race winning streak into her four career start.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Her two wins were impressive enough that she would have been considered a major threat in a fuller and deeper field.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Her last two runs were sound enough to support the hopes that exist when such strong breeding occurs.\u00a0 <\/SPAN><\/o:p><\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

A nice bred horse that became computer owned early in her racing career. \u00a0<\/SPAN>She has two consecutive \u201cshow\u201d finishes in stakes competition, and this race may extend that streak.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She has won on dirt, but on the turf may eventually be her best showings. <\/o:p><\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

A Bargain bred<\/I> that runs like one.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>This magician better reach way down in that pouch to pull off a surprise performance that is good enough to get her in the money.<\/o:p><\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>This race appears to be <\/SPAN>A P Z TWELVE <\/SPAN><\/B>to lose.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She has the credentials and appears set for another fine performance.\u00a0 <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>SALES TAX<\/SPAN><\/B> is a very fine horse, and could prove to be a real challenge for the favorite.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>\u00a0<\/SPAN>Her last trip may prove to be an indication that <\/SPAN>SALES TAX<\/SPAN><\/B> is ready to emerge as a star. The battle in the stretch will come from those two.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>\u00a0<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>CONCILIATOR<\/SPAN><\/B> is talented to earn some of the purse, but she will need to show a bit

more to move up further at the wire.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Expect <\/SPAN>BLUEGRASS MAGICIAN<\/SPAN><\/B> to go for the early lead, but her time up front will probably be short lived. \u00a0<\/SPAN>There is no doubt that the one to beat is <\/SPAN>A P\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Z Twelve<\/SPAN><\/B> (no doubt A to Z), but I would caution about looking past the #1 horse.\u00a0 In other words, with a purse of $75,000, one should never forget about the SALES TAX.<\/SPAN><\/P>
