Has run two races since then and ran third last out in a stakes race for fillies, First time for her to take on the boys. <\/FONT><\/P><P><FONT size=2><B>SQUALL IS A STORM <\/B>is a mare and has ran against the boys once before but would rather forget that performance a 7th place finish. She is improving and should improve of the last race. Now, lets meet the rest of the field of boys. <\/FONT><\/P><P><FONT size=2><STRONG>LOOSE CARSON<\/STRONG>\u00a0who is an old timer 6 yr horse, ran a 108 last time out. <B><\/B><\/FONT><\/P><P><FONT size=2><B>SENSATIONALIZE<\/B> looked to bounce in his last effort 100SF and ran a 110SF in prior. Might be one to look to if he can get back to that form. <B><\/B><\/FONT><\/P><P><FONT size=2><B>STORMZAPPER <\/B>has been running in Graded race last three with two fourths and an eighth last out and has ran three straight 100+ SF&#8217;s might bounce after that or could be sitting on a big effort. <\/FONT><\/P><P><FONT size=2><B>SEATTLE DELTA <\/B>ran a 105 SF two back but that was on the good going and should be down graded until catches an off track. <\/FONT><\/P><P><FONT size=2><B>ACT OF BRAVE<\/B> has run a great SF before but should be sitting on a big performance of about 105 or so atleast. <\/FONT><\/P><P><FONT size=2><STRONG>ONE BOLD RUSH <\/STRONG>might bounce here if following his recent SF pattern. <STRONG><\/STRONG><\/FONT><\/P><P><FONT size=2><STRONG>GOD&#8217;S GIFT<\/STRONG> ran three great races and bounced in that last race and should get back to his usual 100+ SF&#8217;s. <\/FONT><\/P><P><FONT size=2><STRONG>DESERT REGENT <\/STRONG>must hated the heat in NM last out with a poor poor 83SF in an Alw race off a layoff. Ran a nice 112\u00a0 the race before that. 2nd time with his new trainer and needed his last race. <\/FONT><\/P><P><FONT size=2><STRONG>PALESKIN <\/STRONG>won last race a alw race, with a 98SF and might improve and has ran a 107SF five back. <\/FONT><\/P><P><FONT size=2><STRONG>CYCLE LIKE BAYLEY <\/STRONG>looks to be in over his head again but has speed to burn and will force the pace early. <\/FONT><\/P><P><FONT size=2><STRONG>CRAFTY VICTORY <\/STRONG>should be a contender based on the back to back 106SF and might repeat that. He\u00a0is a\u00a0closer and should be around late.\u00a0\u00a0<\/FONT><\/P><P><FONT size=2><STRONG>INDYCITY T<\/STRONG> just ran a 104SF and wired a field in an alw race winning by 2 lengths on the wire shold move up but I don&#8217;t think he will get the easy lead that he enjoyed in the last race.<\/FONT><\/P><P><FONT size=2>So will a Filly win or will the boys dominate this race. Here are my picks, I will take <STRONG>EMPIRE REEF <\/STRONG>to win and I think that she should get the trip she likes close to front or just off the lead if she can get an easy lead look to go wire to wire in here. <STRONG>CRAFTY VICTORY <\/STRONG>is my pick for second closer should be able to close on this field.\u00a0 <STRONG>DESERT REGENT<\/STRONG> would of\u00a0 been top pick if not for the long layoff and short rest back would of liked a bigger price<STRONG>. So My picks are 6-11-8<\/STRONG><\/P><\/FONT><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Will A Filly Beat The Boys?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":105,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1938","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-previews"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1938","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/105"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1938"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1938\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1938"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1938"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1938"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
