Spring Fever Stakes
$100k F & M 4 &up going 5 1/2
#5 Ms Anna Destiny, 9/2This mare lost all chance last out in the American Beauty Stakes when she was late out of the gate and wide throughout. I was standing next to trainer Brad Cox last sunday when she worked and she looked great. Cox told me she is on tilt for today's race, and she certainly looks the part. Anything close to what she ran in early November at Churchill and she will be tough to beat.
#4 Aireofdistinction, 5-1, Assman sent this one out in a OC Alw last and she zipped 6f in a speedy 1:10.3 over a dull OP surface. She tried turf sprints last summer at Saratoga and since getting back on dirt has looked like a champ, going undefeated in three starts in race horse time. Beware the Assman.
#9 Beat The Blues, 3-1, Throw out her dull effort in last in the American Beauty, as it was her first back off a long layoff. Calhoun has her ready to fire today and she is probably the class of the field, but she will be bet heavy and I'm taking a stand against her today on the top end.
#5 W/P
Ex Bx 4/5/9
Tri 5--4/9
GOOD LUCK TO ALL!
