Party Crashers
#7 Runhappy (KY) – Has only made one start, but it was a smashing eight length victory at Turfway Park. In that race he absolutely overwhelmed the competition while running about as green as you can get. Obviously he’s ready for the jump up in class, and he attracts Shaun Bridgmohan who knows a thing or two about winning races at the Fair Grounds. If you haven’t watched the replay of this one check it out…if he can grow up a little bit we know the talent is there.
Throw Outs
#3 Four Leaf Chief (LA) – A fast closing Louisiana bred that’s had success at the smaller tracks against state bred company, but his one start at Fair Grounds against open company he was beaten nearly five lengths. Jumps up to a higher class today, and probably won’t be able to hang with this group.
#5 Hero of Humor (KY) – Has not done anything since breaking his maiden, and has been beaten badly in his last two starts against lessor competition than he faces today.
#8 Killingit (KY) – He was a boarder line Party Crasher/Exotic Play for me only because his one start on a fast dirt track was a victory. His other starts weren’t all that bad as well, but in the end I just felt like he wouldn’t be fast enough to get the job done.
#9 Dekabrist (KY) – No need to explain this one. This poor horse continues to get thrown into races he has no business being in. Will most likely be the longest shot on the board.
