Fair Grounds horses to watch: Week of Nov. 30
WAJIR ON ME
Trainer: Wes Hawley
Last race: Nov. 22, 8th
Finish: 2nd by 2 3/4
Beyer: 67
This one-run closer in a paceless race performed admirably to get second and was closing on the loose-on-lead winner. He will be formidable at a similar class level next out with a little more help on the front end.
MR. FUZZYBOTTOM
Trainer: Steve Asmussen
Last race: Nov. 22, 7th
Finish: 5th by 7 1/4
Beyer: 68
Lost all chance at the start with a dreadful break and made a sharp turn move to reach contention before predictably flattening out. The price should improve from 17-10 favoritism here.
ALBANO
Trainer: Larry Jones
Last race: Nov. 24, 5th
Finish: 1st by 3/4
Beyer: 81
The runner-up, Speightshill, was bet in this 2-year-old maiden special weight race like a horse who was going to run huge, and this second-timer held him off. Good two-race sprint pattern off which to try two turns, a trip for which he is bred. Further improvement is possible next out.
