Superfecta Sunday at Churchill Downs

As Churchill Downs opens up for its Fall meet, we look at a great stakes race for the youngsters to satisfy our 10 CENTSuperfecta yearning.

Churchill Downs Race 8 {Pocahontas~G2~1 mile~2 year old~Fillies~Stakes}
An extremely talented field of eight will make the start in this annual stakes race for the young gals.  This is a group of high octane speedsters, so the race could open up for one sitting off the pace, but close up.  It should be an exciting race.  Let's give it a try in an attempt to group a winning 10 CENT Superfecta Box ticket.

#7 Cloudy Vow (Bridgmohan / Hamm) looks like she will rise to the occasion with the fourth highest (3-way tie) last out speed number at a longer route, a two race progression, and three superb workouts.  She will be making the switch from synthetic to dirt.  This gal is our Bronze Horsehoe runner.
$2 SHOW.

#4 Danalake (Leparoux / Pletcher) will challenge with her tactical speed.  She has produced the third highest last out speed number at a longer dirt route, a two race progression, and two sturdy workouts. 

#6 Sign (Napravnik / Stall) will be stretching out in distance in her second career start.  She is coming off a sixty day freshening.  This gal has the highest last out speed number and has put in four striking, peaking workouts.  With a pressing attack, she appears ready to move forward.

#1 Seasoned Warrior (Rosario / Mott) should be in the mix as she too stretches out from a sprint to a route.  She holds the second highest speed number over the surface and has put in two strong workouts.  A pressing / tracking running style should benefit her.

10 CENT Superfecta Box ($2.40)

#7 Cloudy Vow  +  #4 Danalake  +  #6 Sign  +  #1 Seasoned Warrior.
