Superfecta Sunday along the Jersey Shore

We spend this Superfecta Sunday looking at a splendid Stakes route for fillies and mares along the Jersey shore.

Monmouth Park Race 9 {Lighthouse~1 1/16 mile~3 year old Up~fillies/mares~Stakes}
A compact field of seven talented fillies and mares will go off in this feature stakes race.  All in here have the ability to show speed as well as like to be forwardly placed or close to the pace.  It could develop as a very tactical race with those that position well getting to the wire first.  Let's try to fashion a winning 10 CENT Superfecta box ticket.

#7 Moon Philly (Pimentel / Trombetta) is coming up from Maryland for this one and looks to have a slight edge.  She holds the second highest last out speed number and has put in four sensational peaking workouts that include three bullets.  This gal has an impressive in the money record at both the distance and overall, hitting the board 80% of the time.  She is our Bronze Horseshoe runner.
$2 SHOW.

#2 Cash for Clunkers (Serpa / Violette) is coming off an extended layoff, but holds the highest speed number at the distance, a triple digit, as well as a 100% in the money record at same over four races.  She has put in two solid workouts in preparation.

#5 Successful Song (Trujillo / Plesa) is coming off a brief layoff with three quality workouts during the month of June.  Prior to the layoff she holds the third highest (tie) last out speed number and has run exceptionally well at this distance, hitting the board 80% of the time in fifteen starts.

#6 Withgreatpleasure (Rivera / Nunn) should be in the thick of things sharing the third highest last out speed number and putting in one diligent workout.  She also holds the third highest speed number at the distance.  This gal will be close to the pace ready to strike.

10 CENT Superfecta Box ($2.40)

Stakes Saturday the Belmont Way

On this Stakes Saturday, we take a look at a very contentious Turf route.

Belmont Park Race 8 {New York~G2~1 1/4 mile~ inner TURF~3 year old Up~fillies/mares~Stakes}
An exceptionally talented field of eight fillies and mares will take to the grass in this annual race.  There is enough speed to keep the pace honest allowing for any running style to be triumphant.  It is interesting to note that five in field are coming out of an excellent running of the Sheephead Bay run on May 25th at Belmont.  The New York should be a great race.

#4 Tannery (Saez / Goldberg) has a slight edge with the highest last out speed number, a five race progression, and one terrific workout.  She will be tracking the pace and launch into the stretch.  She also holds the second highest speed number at this distance.
$1 WIN / $2 SHOW.

#8 Lady of Shamrock (Maragh / Sadler) is a California invader that should challenge with a couple of good last out speed numbers and three stout workouts.  She is exiting a grade one race at Betfair Hollywood Park and has one at this distance twice in three tries.  This gal will be closing fast.
$1  PLACE / $1 SHOW.

#7 Dream Peace (Rosario / C. Brown) is another that should challenge with a couple of good last out speed numbers and three hearty workouts.  This gal also holds the third highest (tie) speed number at the distance.  A lover of the Belmont course she should be tracking and closing swiftly.
$1 SHOW.

Other Wagering Interests

#5 Minakshi (Castellano / Matz) should be in the mix with the third highest last out speed number and three strong peaking workouts.  She has a versatile running style that could be forwardly placed in an effort to press the pace and swoop into the lane.  This gal holds the highest speed number at the distance.

#2 Anjaz (I. Ortiz / Albertrani) should be in the hunt with the second highest last out speed number at a longer route and two robust workouts.  This gal has run well at Belmont securing the second highest speed number.  She should be running late.

10 CENT Superfecta
