4 GUSTNADO 9-2
PICK: 3 PATENTAR
Someone is going to have to sit the golden trip behind the cheap speed. This one ran within two of :46.4 half mile speed in last and that is good enough to secure a good early spot. Back to Bejarano who was up in the last win at 9-1 at this distance. Most recent start was simply a prep for longer.
VALUE: 1 UP WITH THE BIRDS
Winner of a Grade 2 at WO six stars back. Nibbled with much better in many of the starts before and after. Moves from one good outfit to another. Likely won’t be at his best for a race or two. Will run on late.
