1st Licit D J C Racing Stables Hernandez R M
Beaten in an optional claimer a month ago and an easy winner of this nice stakes purse today, what hope do we have of finding winners!?!
This was an impressive performance and never really looked in doubt, so there’s clearly a trip up this one’s improvement curve happening and no better trainer to make that work out.
2nd Jameson Red Fox Farms Carmouche K
The outside speed push certainly didn’t help this one’s cause today as he was pushed far too hard early on and was always going to struggle down the stretch. Considering the early pace, he did well to hold onto second.
3rd Family Fun La Canada Racehorses Davis D
I thought the fast pace would play nicely into this one’s hands today when he went back but he didn’t quicken as smartly as I expected and ended up in a closing third.
4th Blowguns Whisper Night Rider Stables McCarthy T
Maiden claimer to fourth in a stakes race is not bad progress, but he just whacked away in the end maybe suggesting he still has a little bit to go to win at this level.
