Race 7: Crimson Frost (#5)

Should appreciate getting back to the one-mile distance at which she’s finished in the exacta in 6 of 9 starts.

Did not appreciate getting stuck inside behind tiring rivals in the Ladies, and is likely to be steered outside for the stretch run this time.

While the Pace Projector is not predicting a fast early tempo, it does indicate that speedy types Jump Ruler and Face It should square off on the lead.
