“made up ground on the turn and sustained the rally to draw off vs. $12,500 types on short rest Nov. 6; mate MR. BOURBON STREET is a multiple winner on the inner track who galloped along well in front of the field after stumbling at the start and losing rider last Friday.”

Comments:
“Looking for repeat.”

Hollywood Park
Michael Hammersly (DRF)
Best Bet – Race 4: Recess (PP: 6 ML 2-1)
Michael’s Comments:
“had a troubled start and was too far back last time while facing tougher. Not only was that level maybe a bit much for her, but being that far back, the way this track has played much of the meet, really left her fighting an uphill battle. She’s down a notch, Bejarano takes the call and she surely has more tactical speed than she was able to show last time.”

Laurel Park

“made up a lot of ground after slow start in Aug. 26 turf sprint.”
Long Shot – Race 3: Misty’s Dispute (PP: 2 ML 6-1)
