Rebelde poised to capitalize on speed duel in Friday allowance
HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. – The pace should be an honest one when a field of seven 3-year-old and up allowance rivals compete for a $52,000 purse going one mile in Friday’s main event. First post for Friday’s program is 2 p.m.
Everyonelovesjames, Ludington, and Fundy’s Tide all do their best running on the front end, a scenario that could set things up nicely for Rebelde, who rallied to a 5 1/2-length victory under a $25,000 claiming tag at a mile here April 29. He returned off that effort just eight days later to finish second in a tough $30,000 starter allowance, beaten by the red-hot Tune In, who registered his fourth consecutive victory that day.
Crea’s Brklyn Law proved no match for Rebelde on April 29, but is another who figures to reap the benefits of a hotly contested pace while seeking his first victory since July 2020. Malibu Max also is capable of stalking and picking up the pieces while in search of his fourth consecutive victory and first since being claimed for $12,500 out of a win going one mile on May 31.
