Race 7 is a very good bunch of 3yo stretching out to 1 1/16. Don/t be surprised to see the first couple of finishers next appear in the Southwest Stakes?
The one who appears on my boyz list is #6 Poseidon's Way, 10-1, who is a second time starter after circiling the field at Remington and getting the win pulling away. Son of Stormy Atlantic came to Hot Springs and lit up the track in the morning. Jock Luie Q. has been on in the A.M. and thjinks he is very live? You won't get 10-1 as the newspaper handicapper put him on top, but Calvin will take a shitload of $$$ on the FG shipper so Poseidon may go off at 6-1 or so? WPS on #6 and ex bx 3/6/10. The #3 Jumpin Frac Flash, 9/2, is well meant for McPeek barn, and the #10 Majestico, 6-1, is one that Lukas has big plans for going long.
Race 8 Smarty Jones Stakes is a race where you can spend hours trying to beat the fav, #3 Mr. Z, 2-1, but the truth is---he is the speed and proven to get the one mile distance. No value, so I recommend a straight exacta 3---1/6/7.

7th--3/6/10
8th---3
9th---????? who you like? I like the 1 & 4, and the 5 as a martin bros longshot play?
Doesn't look like there's much speed in that race. Maybe the Dutrow horse (#2 Tekton) can take them gate-to-wire? Or maybe your Remington horse shows some speed coming out of that sprint race?
3-1-6-5
Just looked at the replay of this one, not bad. Incidentally, she was in now way "rushed" at any point during that race. How that got into the comment line, i have no idea. She was steadied a bit to lose some ground coming out of the gate; nothing too major though.
Btw, it looks like the Kenny Smith firster (Vivian's Legacy) has been working with the McLean Robertson firster from Race 6 (Jean's Beauty). So if that one runs well, you might take that into account.
Nice info sir, TY.
