AQUEDUCT Race #9

Premium Pick

Top pick: #8 (TALK THERAPY) - He finished a solid second in his debut in a race that was "switched" off the turf. The chances are very strong that the same scenario will be in effect here with heavy rains already falling in New York as this is written. The top selection, but is beatable at a short price.

2nd pick: #12 (Wiskaway) - Working fast for his first start since August of '08. In a great long layoff barn (Bruce Levine 29%), colt by "Wheelaway" also gets the addition of lasix (a 27% winning angle for the trainer). Not sure if he'll run on an "off" track.

3rd pick: #9 (River in the Woods) - He finished a rallying second sprinting on the dirt in his debut at Finger Lakes, then ran in a pair on the Belmont lawn. Gets blinkers on this afternoon and he has a solid chance on whatever surface this is run.

4th pick: #5 (Brazen Cat) - Speedy sort was only a length off the top pick last out after being involved in a pace battle from start-to-finish. He should secure the rail with no speed to his left in the gate. Gelding should get a piece of this.
