Back to the Turf at Fair Grounds

Another beautiful day for horse racing.  Today we go to the Turf at Fair Grounds for a terrific allowance feature.

Fair Grounds Race 9 {1 1/16 mile~Turf~4 year old Up~fillies/mares~Allowance}
A very solid field of twelve will make the start in this Turf feature.  It is a relatively closely matched bunch.  Lack of speed will make the race very interesting.

#9 Wild Strike (Jacinto / Frostad) is unquestionably the one to beat with the second highest last out speed number and three hearty workouts.  She appears to have good tactical speed which gives her the edge in this group.
$1 WIN / SHOW.

#1 Backside Blackie (Lanerie / Glyshaw) will challenge with the highest (tie) last out speed number, a three race progression, and one solid workout.
$1 PLACE / SHOW.

#4 Cruisin'n thebridle (Graham / Asmussen) is coming off an extended layoff and has raced well after previous layoffs.  She holds the highest speed number at the distance and has put in four great, peaking workouts.
$2 SHOW.

Other Wagering Interests
#10 Distorted Love (Mena / Pitts) looks ready to move up in distance also with the highest last out speed number and three athletic workouts.

#11 Dandyna (Hernandez / Howard) should be in the mix with a decent last out speed number and three robust, peaking workouts.  Look for her heading into the stretch.

10 CENT Superfecta
