AQUEDUCT 9th: NY-MSW, 3yo-F, 6f (X-C P5)

Cross Country starts here and it’s a messy proposition. Second timers Honey Money & Darling’s Cure debuted solidly and have license to improve. After that, any number of oddballs, misfits and firsters could impact. Very tricky call for tickey-building in another challenging sequence..

OAKLAWN 10th: Rebel (G2), 3yo, 8.5f (DD)

Wet forecast has moderated a good deal, so hard to know this morning how track will be this afternoon. On topic, and amazingly, 6 of the 8 here have off track wins to their credit. Return of G1 Hopeful winner Basin, G1-placed American Theorum and class test for undefeated LA-bred No Parole enhance group already established with meeting of last out stake winners Nadal & Silver Prospector and late running Smarty Jones placer Three Technique. Nadal figures to establish early position but doubt he Rosario wants to engage No Parole too early. Basin and American Theorem figure to get stalking spots behind those two with Three Technique and Silver Prospector prepared to make middle and late moves respectively. Superfecta for this really engaging group is in there somewhere..

Most Likely: #1 Nadal 5-2 WON ($3.80)
Next Best: #4 Silver Prospector 7-2 6th
Best Value: #8 American Theorem 6-1 7th
Exotics Use: #6 Three Technique 7-2 4th
