BELMONT
RACE 7 TURF OR DIRT
4 RUMORS OF GLORY* 2-1 LS
1 BERNIE'S PAL--EAGER LEADER 2-1
7 HECK 4-1
6 READY FOR AUTUMN 6-1
RUMORS OF GLORY ran 3rd behind classy repeat winner in open
company last summer, well bred filly moves in with
statebreds, returns for hot barn with a top turf rider, but
gets call on any surface...BERNIE'S PAL and EAGER LEADER
both fit here for Rice...HECK returns for sharp turf trainer
with top rider...READY FOR AUTUMN debuts for good connections.
RACE 10
5 INHALER** 8-5 PS
6 CIRES 5-2
7 BARON ROUGE 15-1
9 CORONATION DAY 6-1
INHALER may not be much value here but well bred 5yo takes a
key drop, has run well fresh, and hot barn is 41% here and
Ramon has won 6 of 8 when he rides for this barn; seems like
a good single in multi-race exotics.
ARLINGTON
RACE 3
7 LAMBEAU** 2-1 2C
4 SIR BENTLY 2-1
2 TREELINE 4-1
8 BLACK HAVOC 5-1
LAMBEAU had a tough spot on the rail going 7f in debut at
Churchill while racing over a sealed sloppy track that
seemed to favor outside moves, chased a much-the-best
odds-on winner and weakened; training well over synthetics
at Keeneland, adds blinkers for sharp barn who probably
ships here for the surface switch...SIR BENTLY ran 2nd
between two next out winners in a big key race at
Fairgrounds, returns for top trainer Amoss who is winning at
43% here on the meet...TREELINE debuts for hot connections,
can't dismiss...BLACK HAVOC best needed.
WOODBINE
RACE 5
6 ZINN HOUSE DOLL* 2-1 LS
8 SEEKING SHEBA 2-1
10 UNBRIDLED OVERTURE**** 9-2 BCL
2 EURO PLATINUM 10-1
ZINN HOUSE DOLL was 8th behind a slow pace in debut, angled
wide and finished fast going 6f; should be tough in 2nd
start...SEEKING SHEBA finished gamely on turf in debut, also
gets an extra furlong here, adds lasix for Hall of Fame
barn, and has a top rider...UNBRIDLED OVERTURE is by top
sire Unbridled's Song out of a mare who was a two time
stakes winner on this circuit; she worked a best-of-55
bullet over the track and is dangerous at first asking at
20-1 on the ML...EURO PLATINUM goes turf to Poly on the
turnback and gets top rider back.
