A quality field of nine will go to the gate in this annual Graded Stakes race. There is sufficient speed to create a heated pace. Speed numbers are all fairly close making this race a highly competitive event. Our task is to stitch together a winning 10 CENT Superfecta ticket. It should be a great race.
#3 Lone Sailor (Graham / Amoss) is the class of the field and should be able to pull off the victory. He holds the second highest (tie) last out speed number at slightly longer route and two hearty workouts. This son of Majestic Warrior has competed at the highest levels this year and should take up a nice tracking position.
#8 High North (Geroux / B. Cox) should challenge with the highest last out speed number at a longer route and two stout workouts. He holds the highest speed number at this distance and is 57% in the money at the same. A son of Midnight Lute, he should be racing close to the pace. He is our Bronze Horseshoe selection.
