Aqueduct 9th race:
#7 Texas Wildcatter: Seems like this horse was the least bit interested in his last race. Arroyo noted that it would be a good idea to throw the Blinkers on and that what's they are planning on doing here. Threw a nice workout in his last and looks to punch his ticket as a contender for Pletcher
#3 Roman Emperor: Ran a nice race last out at Aqueduct Son of Empire Maker should be there at the end.
#10 Visionaire: Ran a huge race last out against Pyro. Could of stayed and went against Pyro again but trainer decided to take the easy road here.
Going 7-3-10
Fair Grounds 9th race:
#6 Tale Of Ekati: Was looking to get better odds on this horse considering he hasn't ran in a while but 7/2 is good enough. Thought he ran a decent race back in the BC Juv. considering the post and the track conditions. Has been working like a monster lately and looks to be sitting on a big race. B. Tagg seems to always have a weird way with his horses but he has been here before with Funny Cide and I gotta trust him that he has this horse ready. He should stalk off the pace and be in front of the deep closer's as they enter the top of the stretch and take over from the front runner J Be K
#4 J Be K: Tough horse to get off of with his front running style. He should be all alone on the lead and I've seen it before in these Kentucky Prep races when they are out there they forget to stop. The horse is fast there is no doubt about it but the thinking here is Tale Of Ekati will be kept a little close to him and run him down in the Stretch.
Going 6-4
Good Luck
