Selections: 1. Double Gold 2. Empire Dreams 3. Thug Daddy The Play: Double Gold - Empire Dreams EXACTA Double Gold - Thug Daddy EXACTA RACE 9 6 Furlongs Sanford Stakes (G2) 2-year-olds Purse $200,000 1. All in Blue (More Than Ready - Cloud Rise, by Buddha) After being looped by favored Patent entering the turn, this gray attacked from the outside, opened up decisively, and coasted home under a hand ride; barn won 2011 Sanford with BEL FTS winner Overdriven; quick from gate, but must work out trip from rail with other speed outside; respect. 2. Southern Blessing (Dixie Union - Yolie's Choice, by Silver Deputy) No surprise at CD, but worked hard off tracking trip to win slow heat; 2nd-finisher came back to place twice (64, 62 Beyers at DEL, MTH respectively); 3rd-finisher returned to run 1st, but was dq'd at CD, then placed 4th in Bashford Manor behind Debt Ceiling; has upside and benefits from fast pace; needs Beyer boost. 3. Debt Ceiling (Discreet Cat - Top Marks, by Marquetry) Versatile and battle-tested colt tracked blistering pace duel in fast-early, slow-late Bashford Manor before attacking 3 wide on turn; opened up at will, drifted out a bit in upper stretch, and was geared down in final sixteenth; capable of good trip tracking speeds and shouldn't be ignored. 4. Wired Bryan (Stormy Atlantic - Red Melody, by Runaway Groom) Brushed away two pace challengers en route to impressive hand-ridden debut at Belmont; takes big step up in class, however, as 2 of the 5 NY-breds he beat were fillies (both entered in Friday's 5th); expect another speedy try from this intriguing gray colt. 5. Jake's Magic Hat (Tiz Wonderful - Tico Breeze, by Carson City) Imposing colt broke outward, but soon righted himself to prompt tpace while 3 wide. took over midstretch, was kept to task, and galloped out nicely; both 3rd- and 4th-finishers came back to lose at short odds (57, 66 Beyers respectively); with alert break, may work out good stalking trip from outside; not out of this at solid odds. 6. Hollywood Talent (Talent Search - Intrinsic Value, by Johannesburg) Although he was part of hot pace in Bashford Manor, it's worth noting that late-runners never made impact; pressed from outside, but seemed to take a bad step over wet going and was steadied; lost momentum and was looped by winner, but re-rallied gamely for 2nd; figures part of early picture, but must avoid prolonged duel. 7. Yes Liz (Yes It's True - For Scarlett, by Red Ransom) 16K short yearling resold for 200K in April; filly looked good at BEL; battled with 2nd-choice (finished last) early and had that one off bridle after 2F; immediately faced and rebuffed Majestic Serenade's challenge under confident handling; draws nice attack post and should be respected despite facing males.
