    2   AQU    NY Stallion Stakes – Bid           
$150.000   3yo Foaled In NY   6f  Turf    122lbs


The NY-bred races keep rolling and we look at the NY Stallion Stakes – Bid, a six-furlong sod sprint for the sophomore Empire types, and I’m betting the farm on Feel The Thunder in this one.  He’s won three of five starts including a maiden race over the surface and at this distance, along with a CD, at KEE, the Palisades.  He was fifth last out, but that was a salty group at CD and I think he regains his form here… add in that The Green Card takes him on top, I think we will key him today.  I went with Serengeti Creeper in the second spot… another with three wins and a fifth last out, his over this track in the Paradise Creek, but that was open company and I think this is softer.  He was third in the Texas Glitter at GP, so he’s another that fits well in this one.  The Card has Orange Pilled in the second spot, and I can see that one being a threat, as well.
