POST-SCRATCHES

7th: OC/N2X, F&M-3+, 5.5f-T (P4, P3, DD)

A lot going on in this 5.5f turf sprint with 3 seasonal debuts including 5-2 fave Dalika (Rosario/Stall) who’s never gone shorter than 7f. More has recency and should take to lawn being out of a More Than Ready mare who is a full sister to Tammy the Torpedo. Mentality very consistent and logical. McKeever returns Reenie D for ’20 bow and Giant’s Causeway filly a contender at a price (15-1) with natural 3 to 4 development..

8th: CLM/N2L, F&M-3+, 1m (P3, DD)

Muddled field of 10 who arrive here after last starts at 9 different ovals: GP, CD, MVR, WRD, CNL, TP, AQU, BtP, OP-2. Classy Justice took a while to find herself, but was quite good at the end of her ’19 campaign. String of High Point Training Center works and near bullet at CD indicates she ready at first asking. 15-1 and you get my man Mena..

10th: MCLM/$50k, F&M-3+, 8.5f (Hi-5)

Kind of a messy affair with droppers and a number of ugly running lines. On the flip side, some who look dirtied up have only run once or twice and can be forgiven.
