TimeformUS Aqueduct Horses in Focus for Friday, Feb. 2, 2018

Race 5:
Nominal Dollars (#1)

His main rival, Iron Power, is a little suspicious dropping in class so dramatically.

Was against a gold rail last time when racing three wide throughout.

Should appreciate the return to a one-turn mile, which is a better distance for him.

5-2 on ML

Race 6:
Shadow Rider (#2)

Raced four to five wide last time on a day when you wanted to race close to the rail.

May have gotten somewhat burned out after running five times in a 73-day span towards the end of 2017.

Has run well off brief freshenings in the past.

5-1 on ML

Race 7:
Harlan Punch (#1)

Broke slowly and rushed up to chase the pace while racing two to three wide against a strong rail last time.

Has run some of his best races going a one-turn mile, so this distance suits him.

Figures to sit a perfect trip sitting in behind the speeds.
