POST-SCRATCHES

5th: CLM/N2L, F&M-3+, 8.5f-T (P6, P3, DD)

Maniacally difficult start to sequence with entire field separated by a couple lengths. There appears to be pace and pace pressers, so stalker/closers feel like the ones to utilize prominently. Note that you will get the benefit of the toteboard to help with final decision-making..

9th: CLM, 3+, 8.5f-T (DD)

Rock solid cast and with turf season nearing end, a number of these are priced to sell. Tough, tough group to narrow down for ticket-builders..
