We look in on another Kentucky Derby prep down in beautiful South Florida.
Gulfstream Park Race 14 {Fasig-Tipton Fountain of Youth Stakes~G2~1 1/16 mile~3 year-old~Graded Stakes}
Reduced by a couple of scratches, we have a good field of ten that will go to the gate in this annual Derby prep race. There is plenty of speed to produce a steamy pace. Speed figs are fairly close among most of these. Many come into this one fresh with a minor few having raced earlier this month. Significant parity in this field will create one of this most exciting KD 146 preps of the season.
#5 Dennis' Moment (Prat / Romans) debuts in his three year old season. He holds the second highest speed number at this distance and four supreme peaking workouts. This guy is well prepped for this race. A son of Tiznow, he will be tracking the leaders and gun it in the stretch.
$1 WIN / $2 PLACE / $3 SHOW.
#10 Shotski (J. Velazquez / O'Dwyer) will challenge as part of the pace pack with the third highest last out speed number at a longer route and two hearty workouts. This lad is 60% in the money from five career starts. A son of Blame, he is well tested and ready for battle.
$1 PLACE / $2 SHOW.
#6 As Seen On TV (P. Lopez / Breen) should contend with the second highest last out speed number and three terrific workouts. He will be stretching out to this distance. A son of Lookin at Lucky, is 100% in the money from four career starts. Expect him to track the pace closely.
$1 SHOW.
#9 Liam's Lucky Charm (Zayas / Nicks) should be in the mix with the second highest speed number over the Gulfstream track as well as being 100% in the money over it from five starts. He has put in two strong workouts in preparation. A son of Khozan, he is another that will track the pace closely.
$1 Saturday Exacta Wheel ($3.00)

Sensational Superfecta Sunday
We go to sunny California for our Superfecta Sunday play.
Santa Anita Race 8 {Sensational Star~6 1/2 furlongs~downhill TURF~CA Stakes}
An equally matched group of eight experienced down hill Turf runners will climb up to the start. There is plenty of speed and forwardly placed runners to make for a swift pace. It could create an opportunity for those able to come from off the pace to land in the winners circle. Let's give our 10 CENT Superfecta box a crack.
#5 Starspangled Heat (Nakatani / Abrams) could be the runner that takes advantage of a hot pace. He holds the second highest (tie) last out speed number, a two race progression, and one solid workout. Watch him close fluidly in the stretch.
#3 Circa'sgoldengear (Talamo / Heap) should challenge with the highest (tie) speed number at this distance and two sensational workouts. He could make a tactical run for it staying close to the pacesetters. He is our Bronze Horseshoe runner.
$2 SHOW.
#7 Cat Talk (Gomez / D'Amato) should contend with the highest last out speed number, a two race progression, and four superb peaking workouts. This guy is another that can show tactical speed that can take advantage of the race unfolding ahead of him.
#4 Ain't No Other (Bejarano / Hollendorfer) should be in perfect position to take advantage of a fast pace while being forwardly placed. He holds the fourth highest last out speed number and has put in three stout workouts.
10 CENT Superfecta Box ($2.40)
#5 Starspangled Heat + #3 Circa'sgoldengear + #7 Cat Talk + #4 Ain't No Other.

Stakes Saturday FOY
A fantastic Stakes Saturday is in store. On this weekend the battle for KD 139 spots ramps up a notch as the point system increases for this weekend's races. Today we take a long look at the Fasig-Tipton Fountain of Youth in splendid South Florida.
Gulfstream Park Race 11 {Fasig-Tipton Fountain of Youth~G2~1 1/16 mile~3 year olds~Stakes}
An supremely talented field of eleven will make the start in this annual Derby prep race. There is plenty of speed to keep the race strong. There are four in here that are coming off a longer route which may be a key factor in the race. Only one, Majestic Hussar, will be stretching out to this distance. The vast majority of the entrants like to be forwardly placed which will set up nicely for a horse coming from off the pace. This race stacks up as an immensely exciting one.
#3 Violence (Castellano / Pletcher) is coming off an approximate 60 day freshening which will enable him to start his 3 year old campaign fresh. He shares the second highest last out speed number, holds a three race progression, has put in four sensational workouts, and remains undefeated. He most assuredly will be the one to beat utilizing his careful tracking ability.
$1 WIN.
#4 Majestic Hussar (Saez / Kenneally) will be a big part of the speed in this race as he stretched out to a route. He holds the highest last out speed number, has a two race progression, and has put in two superb workouts. This son of Majestic Warrior appears ready to roll over a track he loves.
$1 PLACE / $2 SHOW.
#6 Cerro [IRE] (Rocco / Motion) is capable of showing tactical speed which should be useful in this crowded field. He holds the third highest last out speed number off a longer route, a three race progression, and one hearty workout. He could do well over a favored track.
$1 SHOW.
Other Wagering Interests
#10 Falling Sky (Espinoza / Terranova ) can be expected to be forwardly placed angling for advantage from an outside post position. He shares the second highest last out speed number, holds a three race progression, and has put in two diligent workouts. He has a win over this track which adds to his appeal.
#8 Speak Logistics (Rosario / Plesa) is another that appears to have some tactical speed. He has a couple of decent last out speed numbers, a two race progression, and two strong, peaking workouts. This handsome colt also holds the second highest speed number at the distance. A surprise could be in the offing.
10 CENT Superfecta
#3 Violence, #4 Majestic Hussar / #3, #4 / #6 Cerro [IRE], #10 Falling Sky / #6, #10, #8 Speak Logistics.
Friday's Results
Laurel Park R8. Allowance. Our first pick, Sarah's Kitten, finished 4th. Our second pick, Celtic Kate, finished 5th.

Bankroll takes a tumble to $6.95.
