Neither of our Pix last week seemed to be all that interested in running although one did complete a trifecta at Aqueduct. On the other hand 10 BreezeFigs maidens won during the week at Golden Gate, Gulfstream, Laurel, Oaklawn (two, including a BreezeFigs exacta), Parx, Penn National, Tampa Bay and Turfway. The first 2-year-old sale of the year took place last week in Ocala (OBSMAR) and we’ll soon be seeing those juveniles racing come April. Meanwhile, we have a couple of shots on today’s card that might pay off, see below.
