Dracula Stakes Grade III \u00a0 <\/STRONG>All horses, 3 years old, One mile on the Firm Turf Course, Purse : $150,000<\/FONT><\/P> Post # 1 Seattle Rap Ted<\/STRONG> (Brahms X Seattle Slew X Nijinsky II) Trained by march2nd<\/EM><\/STRONG>. He comes into this race off two wins by a combined 4 lengths. He has yet to lose on the grass. I think this is going to be a little tough for him though. M\/L-17\/1<\/FONT><\/P> Post # 2 Quad Of Azroc<\/STRONG> (Grand Slam X Deputy Minister X Mr. Prospector) Trained by corzak<\/EM><\/STRONG>. He has one win in his life. He also has yet to run a 90 speed figure or a turf route. If you think the route will help might be worth a bet. M\/L-12\/1<\/FONT><\/P> Post # 3 Vermont Victory<\/STRONG> (Two Punch X Theatrical X Pleasent Colony) Trained by wtas02<\/EM><\/STRONG>. He has finished in the money in three straight G3 races by less than a length each time. He has run in the mid 90’s in last three as well. You will get a fair price. M\/L-5\/1<\/FONT><\/P> Post # 4 Cortez<\/STRONG> (High Chaparral X Conquistador Cielo X Foolish Tanner) Trained by slipknot22<\/EM><\/STRONG>. He comes into this race off of two straight wins. One of those was in the Mick Dittman-G1 and the other was a G3. The G1 was at a mile and he earned a 94 and a 97 speed figure. He is an improving horse and I will take a long look at this entry. M\/L-5\/1<\/FONT><\/P> Post # 5 Haunted Hurricane<\/STRONG> (Montjeu X Seeking The Gold X Bold Forbes) Trained by freeky<\/EM><\/STRONG>. He likes to do his running early and try and hold on late. He has won on the turf at about a mile before. The only thing i can see is he will have to bring his A game to win. M\/L-13\/1<\/FONT><\/P> Post # 6 Mt. Zabeel<\/STRONG> (Forestry X Mt. Livermore X Zabeel) Trained by galloper<\/STRONG><\/EM>. He has been running in the mid to low 80 sped figures and will need to improve here to have a chance. He will be cutting back in distance and take a slight drop in class. I would look elsewhere. M\/L-13\/1<\/FONT><\/P> Post # 7 Want To Dance<\/STRONG> (Mr. Greeley X Habitat X Turn-To) Trained by sjmeola6<\/EM><\/STRONG>. He is four for four lifetime. He has won at 6.5 and 7.5 Furlongs and has yet to be tested winning all but one race by 2 lengths. I would take a look here. M\/L-8\/1<\/FONT><\/P> Post # 8 Desert Joker<\/STRONG> (Joker X Fabulous Dancer X Prospector’s Gamble) Trained by laden4<\/STRONG><\/EM>. He won his last race by three at 2\/1. That was also a stakes race at 9 furlongs. He ran only a 86 to get that race but will need to do better here. Ran a 91 in a prior race. Might take a look at a price. M\/L-18\/1<\/FONT><\/P> Post # 9 Gallic Charm<\/STRONG> (Silic X Shahrastani X Icy Storm) Trained by alba1<\/EM><\/STRONG>. He won an alw-50000 by 4 and was not pushed. He needs to improve to grab this race. He ran a 91 3 back and that is the only time he hit the 90’s. M\/L-15\/1<\/FONT><\/P> Post # 10 Zanzabar<\/STRONG> (Galileo X Blushing Groom X Nureyev) Trained by peeps8<\/EM><\/STRONG>. He is coming into form running two back to back 90+ speed figures. One was a stakes race win by 4 lengths. I would take a shot with this one. M\/L-6\/1<\/FONT><\/P> Post # 11 Celerity<\/STRONG> (Sadler’s Wells X Kris S. X Blushing Groom) Trained by techranger<\/EM><\/STRONG>. Prior to his last race in a G3 he was on a three race win streak. The step up in class might of been to much but stays at the same level. He has yet to run a 90 speed figure so I would look at another entry. M\/L-8\/1<\/FONT><\/P> Post # 12 Davy Bear<\/STRONG> (Bernstein X Spinning World X El Prado) Trained by deelynette<\/EM><\/STRONG>. Has only one lifetime win and has yet to run above a 85 speed figure. Pass. M\/L-26\/1<\/FONT><\/P> Post # 13\u00a0 Miter Saw<\/STRONG> ( Not For Love X Seattle Slew X Diplomat Way) Trained by bobthehat<\/EM><\/STRONG>. He has won his last two starts at a mile one with a 96 speed figure. If he can repeat that performance he could win and with this price how could you pass. M\/L-13\/1<\/FONT><\/P> Post # 14 Comanche Nation<\/STRONG> (War Chant X Gone West X Seattle Slew) Trained by kyclocker8<\/EM><\/STRONG>. He is three for three in the money on the turf. I think he will need to improve to win this race but I think he has a real chance to hit the board so I will include him in all exotic plays.
