The next stop on the schedule is Kansas and the weather is fine, and improvement from the last pair of Spotlight stops.\u00a0 The feature is an Allowance race for 4-year olds and up and this one is for the ladies.\u00a0 It is restriced to non-winners of three other than maiden, claiming, optinal or starter and we have a field of 11 in this 9f turf race.<\/p>\n
1 ANASZI QUEST\u00a0 7\/2-Field favorite gets rail and has won last two starts (most recent on this oval) with speeds of 101 and 102.\u00a0\u00a0 Recent speeds are best in field and this girl is very capable of making this a nice 3-race win streak.<\/p>\n
2 MAGIC STARLIGHT\u00a0 5\/1-Chases first win since August and moves up ranks after a pair of thirds in high-end starter allowance races.\u00a0 Usually close to the front and typically hits board if racing fifth or better by the half.\u00a0\u00a0 Could get a share.<\/p>\n
3 DERBY FOUR\u00a0 33\/1-Broke maiden last November and has had some challenges in allowance level.\u00a0\u00a0 Finished third in December but tailed off from lead.\u00a0 Last two were finishes well back behind the leader.\u00a0\u00a0 Gonna be a tough race.<\/p>\n
4\u00a0 MS. NACHO 9\/2-Very consistent finishing ITM 20 of 24 starts and 10 wins sprinkled in the tally.\u00a0 Speed dropped a bit in last from 99 to 88 but may be related to running in sprint.\u00a0 Returns to the route distance and should find this more appealing.<\/p>\n
5 WOMEN FEVER\u00a0 28\/1-Brings four race win streak into this event which all came on the dirt.\u00a0 These were also in claiming races so she’s firing up to the allowance level and taking on better runners.\u00a0\u00a0 Only one turf race which was a mini-sprint.\u00a0 Last three were routes and won by good margin.\u00a0 Maybe a bit underrated and this will be nice test.<\/p>\n
6 LADY CHARISMATIC\u00a0 29\/1-Mid-80 speeds in last three starts won’t be enough to get a win in this one.\u00a0 She has one win in 14 tries and seems to be taking on too much in this field.\u00a0\u00a0 Going to be hard pressed to get a top-three finish.<\/p>\n
7 SHINING SILVER\u00a0 5\/1-Earned a win in February with 85 speed taking it by over three strides and the speed number could have been higher if anyone pressed her.\u00a0 Last month finished second by 2 closing hard with 99 speed.\u00a0 One to keep an eye on.<\/p>\n
8 THE SHARP\u00a0 4\/1-Last win came in October and since then she has finished third a total of three times in her last four starts.\u00a0 Last start was on good surface and may not have cared much for the moisture.\u00a0 Returns to dry track and hopes to improve.<\/p>\n
9 CINNAMON KITTEN\u00a0 9\/1-Four of last five starts have been on grass and this lady shows signs of liking the turf with a 2-2-0 record.\u00a0 Top speed of 92 on the grass may not be enough to get the top spot in this race so a little more work will be necessitated.<\/p>\n
10 ARZUAGA\u00a0 14\/1-This mare has been testing a variety of surfaces since June, running on all three over past four starts.\u00a0\u00a0 Last start was on the poly which yielded the best results with a third and an 86 speed.\u00a0 She did win with 91 speed in January 2015 on the turf going in a sprint.\u00a0 Still seems to be trying to find the best suit.<\/p>\n
11 DADDY’S DARLING\u00a0 13\/1-A three time winner in eight turf starts with all coming in route distances.\u00a0 This lady has been shut down since February 2015 when she last scored a win and has not had a top-three finish since this time.\u00a0\u00a0 She’s capable of 90+ speeds but consistency in results have been problematic.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Anazazi Quest is my top choice as she has been in peak form of late, gets third straight.<\/p>\n
Shining Silver has been ITM in all 12 turf starts with 7 wins, could beat the top one.<\/p>\n
Ms Nacho is as steady as they come, earns her share.<\/p>\n
