She's All Wolfe back against Oklahoma-breds in Cinema Stakes

She’s All Wolfe’s one win from five career starts came in her one start in a race restricted to Oklahoma-breds. Monday, she’s back in Oklahoma, back with Oklahoma-breds, and stands a good chance of getting back to the winner’s circle in the $55,000 Cinema Stakes at Will Rogers Downs.

The Cinema, race 9 of 10 on a card that starts at 1:15 p.m. Central, drew a field of seven Oklahoma-bred 3-year-old fillies racing one mile around two turns, and She’s All Wolfe probably will be favored.

She’s All Wolfe, who ships from Oaklawn Park for trainer Donnie Von Hemel, ran second in her career debut, and open maiden sprint last June at Churchill Downs, and second in the Prairie Gold Lassie before traveling to Remington Park and knocking out an Oklahoma-bred maiden victory. Her two starts this year at 3 marked her first races around two turns, and while She’s All Wolfe made no real impression in either of them, she was meeting much stronger open allowance horses at Oaklawn than she faces Monday.

She’s All Wolfe didn’t seem to enjoy racing fairly close to a moderate pace in her most recent start and ran better two races ago when she closed mildly into a hot pace to finish fourth in a race won by Bonny South, who would go on to win the Fair Grounds Oaks. Shedaresthedevil was second in the same race and returned to capture the Honeybee Stakes at Oaklawn.

She’s All Wolfe, bred and owned by Robert Zoellner, is by Magna Graduate and is the first foal to race out of She’s All In, another Zoellner-owned, Von Hemel-trained Oklahoma homebred. Ten years ago, She’s All In graduated from the maiden ranks at Will Rogers Downs for just a $15,000 maiden-claiming tag but went on to become an eight-time stakes winner with a bankroll of more than $1.1 million and a signature win in the Grade 3 Sixty Sails Handicap over 1 1/8 miles at Hawthorne.

Also shipping from Oaklawn is Diamonds N Spurs, who finished second in the $75,000 Slide Show Stakes over one mile for Oklahoma-bred 2-year-old fillies last fall before finding herself overmatched in the $100,000 Trapeze Stakes, an open race. She starts fresh for trainer Randy Morse and can rally past tiring stretch-out sprinters who fail to stay a route in Monday’s race.

The Cinema is the third leg in a late pick four that starts with a tough-to-figure Oklahoma-bred first-level sprint allowance and ends with a $7,500 nonwinners-of-two claiming sprint. Doubling up on Gray Sky Mesa and Righteous Mover in race 10 might get a pick four ticket through that race, but there appear to be five or six horses capable of winning race 7.

Race 8, a $15,000 nonwinners-of-two claimer, could be a spot to narrow a ticket, with Moro Appeal, who should be a decent price, the preferred win candidate. Moro Appeal has a record of 2-2-2 in her six starts racing without blinkers, probably runs best at this 5 1/2-furlong distance and shows a couple sharp-looking April workouts at Sam Houston.
