AKWEDUCK 1117

.................

It looks like a scrambly, longshot day:

1; Boss Tiffany is the 2/1 fave, but poor form suggests he won't be the boss of this crowd. Some kinda longshot will win, maybe Checquer Alibi, the only one with 2 wins at AQU.

2: Dutrow has picked up Astoria Sweetheart and sharpened her up. 2/1 off a layoff is a bit stingy.

3: A four or five horse scramble. Bunny Junction, Mulligatawny, Malaysia, Mama's Temper are all inside and in good form.

4: 3-1 on the untried Bang Bang Bang? Nah. Put Him Back at 12/1. He tired on the turf at a distance, now sprints.

5: Another four or five horse longshot scramble in a big field.

6: 4/1 might be fair on Post Exchange, but his running line isn't brilliant.

7: Bayou Timber and Run with Lark in a box.

8: I love to see the splendid Evening Attire, but he will probably need a sharpening race. Awfully Smart won big last time and wins almost half his races. Almost anybody could run second behind him.

9: Stormy Miracle tries grass for Dutrow, but form is a question. The ML picks Vivacious Vivian, which is totally ridiculous. Another longshot race.
