Superfecta Sunday on Jersey Turf

A little Turf mile for Superfecta Sunday.

Monmouth Park Race 7 {1 mile~TURF~3 year-old Up~fillies/mares~Claiming}

A swell group of nine will go to the Jersey grass in this Turf contest. A ton of speed and forwardly placed types show up for this one. Speed figs are fairly similar which should produce a competitive event. Our task is to weave together a winning 10 CENT Superfecta box ticket.

#8 Subpoena (Bravo / Gonzalez) has an edge with the highest last out speed number at a longer route and one solid workout. She loves the Monmouth course with a 66% in the money record from twenty-one starts over it. Look for her to close vibrantly. This lady is our Bronze Horseshoe selection.
$2 SHOW.

#10 Archer Queen (A. Castellano / McBurney) should challenge with the second highest last out speed number at a longer route, a five race progression, and one peaking workout. She should be able to close well in what should shape up as a speed-fest.

#2 First Acquittal (G. Saez / Machiz) should contend with the third highest (tie) last out speed number at a longer route, a four race progression, and two hearty workouts. She is another that will track and close with spirit.

#7 Bobs Pinup Girl (Worrie / Falcone) will be in the mix with the fourth highest last out speed number and one sound workout. She shares the highest speed number at the distance with two others, including our top pick. This girl will be among those closing furiously in the stretch.

10 CENT Superfecta Box ($2.40)

#8 Subpoena  +  #10 Archer Queen  +  #2 First Acquittal  +  #7 Bobs Pinup Girl.

Stakes Saturday on the Turf

We enjoy a thrilling Stakes Saturday on Turf from Wilmington, Delaware.

Delaware Park Race 9 {Robert G. Dick Memorial Stakes~1 3/8 mile~TURF~3 year-old Up~fillies/mares~Stakes}

A reduced field of nine will hit the grass in this annual affair.  There is a smattering of speed which could allow those forwardly placed types a bit of advantage. All of these ladies have fairly robust speed numbers making for a highly competitive event. It should be one of the better Turf classics on this Stakes Saturday.

#1 Kittens Point (Prado / Motion) should be able to handle this field if the pace kicks into high gear. She holds the highest last out speed number at a longer Turf route, a two race progression, and four excellent peaking workouts. This daughter of Kittens Joy should be able to handle this distance and kick in capably.
$1 WIN  /  $2 PLACE  /  $3 SHOW.

#10 Courtesean (Rosario / C. Brown) should challenge with the third highest (tie) last out speed number at a longer Turf route and three solid works. She holds a victory at this distance earning her the highest (tie) speed number of the group. A daughter of the great Street Sense, she should take up a credible tracking position ready to vault towards the front.
$1 PLACE  /  $2 SHOW.

#6 Ceistech [IRE] (Hill / Proctor) had shown speed in her last and with few speedsters in this race, she could carry the day. She comes into this with the fourth highest last out speed number, a two race progression, and three bullets workouts. This daughter of New Approach [IRE] has the highest overall in the money record of 75% from eight starts.
$1 SHOW.

Another Wagering Interest

#3 Striking Style (Cintron / Matz) should be forwardly placed which should aid her cause. This gal holds a couple of very good last out speed numbers and two successful workouts. She has the second best overall in the money record at 72%. This daughter of Smart Strike will be stretching out a furlong for this race.

10 CENT Superfecta

#1 Kittens Point  /  #10 Courtesean  /  #6 Ceisteach [IRE]  /  #3 Striking Style.
