DRF's Horse Racing Playbook for Tuesday, April 14, 2020

With most other North American sports being shut down due to the coronavirus pandemic, we hope the sport of horse racing can entertain you during these trying times. Daily Racing Form has served as the most trusted source of news and information about the sport since 1894, and moving forward we have decided to provide a free daily playbook – something that both hardcore horseplayers and casual observers can reference to get informed of each day’s action.

2:45 p.m. Eastern Will Rogers Down 2nd race – PRICILLA KAY (#10, 15-1) is good enough and has won twice over the surface, and though she needs luck and pace from this draw and with her late-running style, one could see a multi-horse duel percolating during the early and middle stages. – Marcus Hersh

6:15 p.m. Eastern Will Rogers Down 9th race – SUGOI (#1, 8-1) drew off late in his 6 1/2-furlong second-start maiden win like this two-turn mile would be within his scope. Ships from Kentucky for trainer who spent years in California and has a good record with horses simultaneously going sprint-route and synthetic-dirt. – Marcus Hersh

7:42 p.m. Eastern Fonner Park 7th race – MALLORY'S BANDIT (#1, 12-1) likely prepping for stretch out and class drop when returning from layoff last time in a four-furlong stakes race. Lively April 1 drill for competent outfit. – Marcus Hersh

8:36 p.m. Eastern Fonner Park 9th – HOLDING FAST (#6, 4-1) has one more notch of improvement to find in this, his third start of the form cycle. Fonner-lover should have pace in front of him. – Marcus Hersh
