TimeformUS Aqueduct Horses in Focus for Saturday, Nov. 17, 2018
Race 3: Tiznow’s Smile (#5)
Is in the best form of her career after struggling in weaker races for so long.
Ran better than it appears last time, as she was buried down inside while the top two finishers got the jump on her.
Has always been bred to be best going route distances and is finally getting a chance to do so.
4-1 on ML
Race 5: Pink Sands (#3)
Got the wrong trip last time, as she was buried down inside in tight quarters while racing behind a very slow pace.
Ran very well two back on Sept. 15, closing behind Palladian Bridge, who just returned to win at this level.
Finally gets off the rail after drawing the inside post in two straight races.
8-1 on ML

Race 8: Inspector Lynley (#7)
Has proven that he handles turf courses with some give to them, and it won’t be anywhere near firm on Saturday.
His grinding style should be well suited to this longer trip.
Is bred to handle the stretch-out in distance since his dam is a half-sister to Rescue Squad, who was second in this race a few years back.
9-2 on ML
