Peck: Monmouth horses to watch for week of June 3, 2019

P J'S BAD BOY

Trainer: David Nunn

Date: June 1, 1st

Finish: 5th by 11 1/4

Beyer: 42

Off the board in this route but he did make a little middle move before tiring. Hoping to see him back in a sprint in his return, as he ran deceptively well in defeat at six furlongs in his prior start.

LADY EXPRESS

Trainer: Larry Rivelli

Date: June 2, 2nd

Finish: 3rd by 6 3/4

Beyer: 46

Settled for the show in this debut but actually ran quite well, just missing the place with a late rally on a day when nothing was closing outside. Doesn't figure to be a maiden for long for win-early connections.
