Up North for Superfecta Sunday

We hit the synth up North in frosty Canada for our Superfecta Sunday.

Woodbine Race 8 {Valedictory~G3~1 3/4 mile~3 year-old Up~Graded Stakes}

A fine field of nine will hit the Tapeta in this annual contest. Lacking in any dominating speed, the race could come down to positioning as the quickening begins. Speed figs are fairly close although four have yet to run this longer distance. Our task is to select the right mix to conquer the 20 CENT Superfecta. It could be the best race of the day.

#7 Melmich (Contreras / K. Attard) looks to be the winner in this one sporting the highest speed number at this distance. He holds the second highest (4-way tie) last out speed number and two sound workouts. Proven at the distance, this millionaire son of Wilko should be tracking ready for the race to the wire.

#5 A A Azula's Arch (Moreno / K. Attard) is the lone filly in the race. She shares the second highest last out speed number and has put in two stout workouts. A daughter of Arch, distance should not be a problem. This gal loves the surface and the Woodbine track. She is our Bronze Horseshoe selection.
$1 SHOW.

#4 Vintage Matters (Wilson / Dickenson) will be moving from Turf to synthetic and stretching out to this distance. He is another sharing that second highest last out speed number and has turned three high quality peaking workouts. A son of Tapit, he should be tracking and closing vigorously.

#9 Pumpkin Rumble (Da Silva / K. Attard) could go off as the favorite following two straight wins. He holds the highest last out speed number and two strong workouts. He appears to be in the best form of the bunch. A son of English Channel he is another that will track whatever pace develops and battle in the stretch.

20 CENT Superfecta Box ($4.80)
