RACE 1
NO. 5 DADTAUGHTMEWELL: May have been best in this 1-1/16 route for $16k claimers as he was pulling the jock out of the saddle but was caught down on the inside and steadied hard on the turn. Once clear he made a nice late run to pick up show dough, missing place by 3/4 of a length and win by 1-1/2. This one is in good form for this level; we will use off the claim next out.
RACE 9
NO. 13 SUNDAR CREEK (STUCK ON THE ALSO LIST): Was getting her fourth career start and fourth different jockey. She really didn’t look like much off her last two races getting beat by a total of 27 lengths but was well bet in all three of her races. It all came together in this $20k, 7 furlong maiden race as she just crushed these horses at 11/1, winning by more than five lengths. We will be keeping an eye on this filly as she looks like a repeater at another good price.
