Our Pick last week, Banjo Queen, did not make music for us but the rest of the week was excellent for BreezeFigs maidens. An even dozen of them came home on top at: Aqueduct; Charles Town, Fair Grounds, Gulfstream (three), Laurel (BreezeFigs exacta), Oaklawn (two), Parx, Penn, and Tampa Bay (BreezeFigs exacta). Weather will play a role today and the card is very short with only two first-timers, but one of them is very interesting, see below.

Oaklawn Park has canceled, the weather in New York, where Aqueduct had a two-stakes card, looks rough, and Santa Anita’s stakes feel chalky. Let’s make it an all-Florida affair in this Weekend GamePlan.
Holy Bull
Todd Pletcher has merely won four of the last 10 stakes he’s entered, a cataclysmic drop from his start to the Gulfstream Park championship meet, when Pletcher entered horses in six stakes and won them all.

Distance test coming
Distance-skeptical about Forbidden Kingdom? His dam, by Five Star Day, did not race beyond six furlongs; her first three foals never won beyond six. But Forbidden Kingdom was downright dazzling in the seven-furlong Grade 2 San Vicente on Saturday at Santa Anita, especially compared to Flightline’s seven-furlong Grade 1 Malibu.
