Superfecta Sunday on TURF

Updated at 16:14 Central Time

As Hurricane Irma pounds Florida our thoughts and prayers are with the people and our Equine Hero's living down there.

We look in on a terrific Turf contest on this Superfecta Sunday.

Kentucky Downs Race 9 {Dueling Grounds Derby~1 5/16 mile~TURF~3 year-old~Stakes}

A great group of eight will take to the grass in this annual affair. It comes up a little light on speed giving the forwardly placed runners a bit of a chance. Only one in here has gone beyond this distance and the rest will be stretching out. Speed figs are very close making for a spectacularly competitive event. Our task is to hook together a winning 10 CENT Superfecta box ticket.

#5 Parlor (Leparoux / Kenneally) might go off as the favorite with the second highest last out speed number, a five race progression, and three hearty workouts. He has already acquitted himself over this course. He is our Bronze Horseshoe selection.

$2 SHOW.

#8 Gorgeous Kitten (Geroux / Maker) will challenge with a couple of very good last out speed numbers, a three race progression, and two sturdy workouts. This guy loves the Turf and should get the distance easily.

#4 Society Beau (Graham / Howard) is another that will be making his first trip over the grass with a couple of good last out speed numbers and three solid workouts. This guy has the best in the money record of 78% from fourteen starts.

#2 Bronson (Gaffalione / Maker) should be in the mix with a couple of good last out spee numbers, a five race progression, and four strong workouts. This guy should enjoy the stretch out over the Turf.

10 CENT Superfecta Box ($2.40)

#5 Parlor  +  #8 Gorgeous Kitten   +  #4 Society Beau  +  #2 Parlor.
