race is OFF the turf and 4, 9, 10, 11 are SCRATCHED
With the scratches, it appears that #7, Atlantic Hurricane, will be loose. I'm counting on #3, Woolly Bear, being able to stay with her early. She's cutting back from 9F but she's shown speed going 7F in the past and I'm hoping she can stay with #7 just enough to change the setup of the race. The 7 is better on the turf and got it all her own way last time.
#2, Amiable Grace has 4 wins and 2 seconds in 7 starts @ 7F. She lost to the 7 last out but they went 1-2 around the track in that one and all three chasers backed up. So, it probably favored the frontrunners. As such, I don't put much weight on the 7 being a 'fighter', as some here seem to do. Winning an individual duel with ONE other horse in a race that goes 1-2 around the track doesn't show much, IMO.
The other one here is #1, Ariana D, with some nice 6.5F and 7F AWT races.
#2 is the choice.
2 over 1, 7 in exotics.
