Breeders' Stakes Aug 17/14
I’m sticking with my selection from the Prince of Wales Stakes, Smart Spree is back on familiar ground again on the somewhat firm turf course at Woodbine. Last time out he got nosed by Ami’s Holiday in the POW, and i expect a reversal of fortune today on the preferred surface. The bias on the turf course has been playing late this weekend and Smart Spree seems to have the advantage in that department, if he can regain his form from GP.
The two other contenders i like are Ami’s Holiday, who is training really well coming out of the POW, and you can never go wrong with the Carroll/Contreras combo, they were red hot on Saturday and maybe that will continue into today. Ivan Dalos’ barn has been very successful this season and this badboy is long overdue, it could very well be his day.
Niigon Express looks to be in form today coming off a short layoff from the Queens Plate, and could very well make some noise when everything is said and done.
9 – Smart Spree .... Win
9 / 2-8
