In Race 1
Former asst to Geo Weaver has a horse. Hits on many angles, older vs 3yo and 2nd time starter off a short rest after showing speed and fade in first. Young trainer is Bill Hickey, and his horse is #8 Ful da Funk, 5-1. This Hickey is probably in his mid 20's but looks around 17 years old. He has Kentucky connections which run deep and he has this one ready to fire a big race. The ml fav is a midwest thoro who ran at OP and is vulnerable at a super short price. Goes with a lesser known jockey to keep the price right. Will be a major play for me today along with our boy Irad at Aqueduct 5th--Pegasus Papoo at around 8-1, I think. Get down early and don't be shy!
GOOD LUCK TO ALL!
