Race 7:
Our Independence (#1)
The Pace Projector is predicting he will get a fast pace to close into.
Is coming out of much tougher races, as he finished behind top turf sprinter Imprimis in his last two starts.
Did not get ideal trips in either of his last two starts and may be in better form than it seems.
3-1 on ML
Race 9:
Cozzy Spring (#2)
The Pace Projector is predicting that she is faster than the other speeds.
Was rated too aggressively on the lead last time, whereas she prefers to run freely in front.
The slight cutback to six furlongs should agree with her.
5-1 on ML
