A relatively short field but it is very competitive and should be a fun race to watch.  Let\u2019s take a look:<Font color=#006400><\/p>\n<p><strong>#1 WOETTE&#8217;S WORLD trainer \u2013 derbystud, ( 6\/1),  Jockey \u2013 Z Graves (19%),  Avg Sp # (84.8) <\/strong><\/font><br \/>(SPINNING WORLD x DAYLAMI (IRE) x SNOW CHIEF)  Everyone in the race has been in at least twice as many races as this nearly white colt who has been in three.  He looks like the real deal though as he has a two race win streak coming in and had a really nice 89SPF last time out.  If he keeps improving, trainer DerbyStud will be extremely happy.  He loves the lead so capable jockey Graves should move him there quickly from his inside post.  Could be a spoiler here.  <Font color=#006400><\/p>\n<p><strong>#2 SHARP WITTED trainer \u2013 catamount2, ( 2\/1),  Jockey \u2013 L Johnson  (14%),  Avg Sp # (86.5) <\/strong><\/font><br \/>(SPEIGHTSTOWN x DEPUTY MINISTER x WILD AGAIN)  First Stakes outing for this nicely bred colt..  He has been extremely consistent in his past three with low ninety in his SPFs.  Finished third in an 8.5f last time out and is moving back to the favored mile distance this time.  Likes to sit behind the leaders and jump down the stretch but didn\u2019t have the finish last time.  I look for him to rebound here.<Font color=#006400><\/p>\n<p><strong>#3 INDEFENCIBLE trainer \u2013 leggo, ( 5\/1),  Jockey \u2013 A King (9%),  Avg Sp # (N\/A) <\/strong><\/font><br \/>(RAINBOW QUEST x MR. PROSPECTOR x STORM CAT)  Trying out the dirt for only the second time in 11 races and the first was his maiden voyage.  He looks to be bred for the green but you just never know.  Trainer Leggo wants to take a look here. After a promising start last year, he\u2019s backed off a bit and this may get him kick started.  This is the right kind of field to try it out on.  <Font color=#006400><\/p>\n<p><strong>#4 GRAND PEGASUS(IRE) trainer \u2013 tullbrink3, ( 5\/1),  Jockey \u2013 B Baroo (2%),  Avg Sp # (84.6) <\/strong><\/font><br \/>(GRANDERA (IRE) x FUSAICHI PEGASUS x SEATTLE SLEW)  This will be the first Stakes race for this guy but he\u2019s won three of four coming in and easily ran his best effort at a mile in his last outing.  He looks to be rounding into form and can make some noise with a win here.  Trainer TullBrink3 has to like the effort since his switch to the dirt four back.  <Font color=#006400><\/p>\n<p><strong>#5 THE LAKE EFFECT trainer \u2013 grandslam, ( 4\/1),  Jockey \u2013 K Hellestrae (27%),  Avg Sp # (84.4) <\/strong><\/font><br \/>(SALT LAKE x TIMELESS MOMENT x BELIEVE IT)  After running 11 consecutive bid races on French soil, this GrandSlam trained colt tried out the Stakes circuit last time out and finished an acceptable fourth after taking a look in the stretch.  His 90 SPF should put him near the leaders and he has the best jockey at the track in Hellestrae ready to guide him home.  GrandSlam wants to show off his horse and why he kept him training in France.<Font color=#006400><\/p>\n<p><strong>#6 NIGHTHAWK QUEST trainer \u2013 4nighthawk, ( 3\/1),  Jockey \u2013 J Ashanti  (8%),  Avg Sp # (89.5) <\/strong><\/font><br \/>(CORONADO&#8217;S QUEST x MIESQUE&#8217;S SON x FORTY NINER)  This nice looking chestnut colt will be in his 10th Stakes race and the experience should show through.  His last three on the dirt all looked good and very consistent and he\u2019s dropping back just a bit in distance which should help out his stamina.  The outside post should benefit his drop back style and he may be the horse to beat in this race.<Font color=#006400><\/p>\n<p><strong> Morning Line = 2-6-5-3-4-1<\/strong><br \/><strong>Yoss Tipsheet = 6-2-5-1<\/strong><br \/><strong> Paz Picks = 6-2-5-4<\/strong><br \/>Throw a blanket over them as almost anyone could win here.  I like  <b> GRAND PEGASUS <\/b> to just miss the top three.  <b> THE LAKE EFFECT <\/b> has lots of experience and not much travel so he should be rested and ready. That\u2019s good enough for third. It should be a close race betwen<b> SHARP WITTED<\/b> and <b> NIGHTHAWK QUEST <\/b> but I think that the QUEST will have enough to pull it out at the wire.<\/p>\n<p><b>Good luck to all runners!<\/p>\n<p>Email your comments to <a href=\"mailto:pazjazz.btb@gmail.com\"><font color=blue>pazjazz.btb@gmail.com<\/font><\/a><\/font>.
