No Cents has already established his class as a multiple stakes winner, but there’s reason to think he might improve Sunday when he makes his turf debut in the $85,000 Joey P. Handicap at Monmouth Park. The five-furlong sprint on the grass is for 3-year-olds and up bred in New Jersey. It will share a card with the $85,000 Pinot Grigio Handicap for New Jersey-bred fillies and mares at the same trip. The Joey P. field of eight includes Like What I See and Smithwick’s Spice, who are the race’s co-highweights at 122 pounds. No Cents is weighted next at 121. No Cents has won four of eight starts, including the James F. Lewis III and Heft stakes in 2020 at Laurel Park. This year, No Cents has run second, third, and fourth in a trio of sprint stakes run at either Monmouth or Delaware Park. :: DRF Bets members get FREE DRF Past Performances - Formulator or Classic.
