I wish Airofoce was not the morning-line favorite in Saturday's Risen Star Stakes at Fair Grounds and offered more value. But I'm guessing there will be enough bettors that question Airoforce that he won't dip below his 5-2 morning line.
I picked Uncle Walter in the Lecomte Stakes, and though he finished third, he showed me enough to give him another chance in Saturday's Risen Star Stakes at Fair Grounds.
That was a strong Presidents Day weekend for 3-year-olds moving up the Beyer Speed Figure scale. Nyquist could not get a 90 as a 2-year-old. The unbeaten champ blew right past the 90s with a 100 Beyer when he won the San Vicente Stakes in an extremely impressive performance. Suddenbreakingnews came from absolutely nowhere in the Southwest Stakes to win and get a 93 Beyer, a 16-point improvement over his previous best. Sam F. Davis Stakes winner Destin also got a career-best Beyer with a 91.
