Race 2: Sandy Belle (#5)
The Pace Projector is predicting a situation favoring horses on the front end, and she is quick enough to make the lead.
Hopped at the start last time, which cost her any chance she might have had.
Her overall wet track record belies the fact that she strongly prefers a harrowed surface.
