TURFday Sprint at Fair Grounds

A wonderful Thursday for a TURF sprint at Fair Grounds.

Fair Grounds Race 9 {5 1/2 furlongs~TURF~4 year old Up~Optional Claiming}
A nice TURF sprint shapes up as nine will make the start.  A little speed and lots of tracker/closers types will be present.

#9 Barracuda Bay (Graham / Springer) looks ready to run a big race with the second highest last out speed number, a two race progression, and two stout, peaking workouts.  He appears to be a stellar tactician that could impose upon the group a presser/tracker/closer running style.
$1 WIN / $2 SHOW.

#1 Southern Region (Hernandez / Werner) will pose a significant challenge with the highest last out speed number, a six race progression, and three superb, peaking workouts.  He loves the Fair Grounds course and will use that to his advantage.
$1 PLACE / $1 SHOW.

Other Wagering Interests

#4 Major Marvel (Napravnik / Asmussen) should be in the mix with the third highest last out speed number, a two race progression, and four excellent peaking workouts.  He could be frowardly placed ready to strike quickly.

#7 Whitley (Mena / Stidham) should be fresh after an extended layoff.  His last race was a route and he has put in a strong bullet workout in advance of this race.  He could close dominantly at first asking after the layoff.

10 CENT Superfecta

#9 Barracuda Bay / #1 Southern Region / #4 Major Marvel / #7 Whitley.



Last Sunday's (1/8) Results
Santa Anita R8.  Daytona.  Our 10 CENT Superfecta Box was scrapped due to a key scratch, Silver Summation.  We will attempt to make a go of it again this Sunday.
Bankroll remains unchanged, but we will supplement with a cash infusion of $10.00 for our horse racing weekend bringing it to $13.90.
