      Top Horse Racing Picks for Saturday, June 25, 2022
      By J.W. Paine in Horse Racing

      We’ve got a generous smattering of stakes races among the nine matches I’ve selected for my horse racing picks for Saturday.

      That includes graded stakes races at both Belmont Park and Churchill Downs, while Monmouth Park features the $100,000 ungraded Goldwood Stakes for our wagering pleasure.

      Remember to check out the full race cards for all three tracks at one of our top horse racing betting sites.

      Good luck!
      Saturday’s Picks for Belmont Park

      Let’s start with race two, a 1-1/8 miles allowance run on the turf course for New York-bred fillies and mares three years old and upward. I’m going to agree with the morning line here and bet on the 9/5 favorite, Rheaume, ridden by top jockey Trevor McCarthy.

      This four-year-old bay filly finished in the money both of her career starts, winning her initial maiden attempt here at Belmont in April, then finishing second in a seven-horse allowance run in May.

      Thirty-five-year horse racing veteran Michael W. Dickinson trains Rheaume for owner-breeder Gallagher’s Stud.
      Race three — Wild Applause Stakes

      This is a $100,000 purse, one-mile grass run for three-year-old fillies. My money’s on the second-favored (at 2/1) Breeze Easy, with Joel Rosario in the irons.

      This bay import from the UK finished four of her nine career starts in the money, winning one. Before coming to the US, she finished third in the Coral Beaten-By-A-Length Free Bet Rockingham Stakes (Listed) at in York last October, and second in the Galloping To Give 10 Years With A Transplant Radley Stakes (Listed) at Newbury later that same month.
      Her single American run was here at Belmont in May, where she finished second in the Soaring Softly Stakes (Grade III). Even in this tightly matched short field of five, she’s a standout.

      Christophe Clement trains Breeze Easy for owners R A Hill Stable and Reeves Thoroughbred Racing.
      Race eight — Mother Goose Stakes (Grade II)

      This is a $250,000 purse, 1-1/16 miles run on the main track for three-year-old fillies. I’m backing the 1/1 favorite, Juju’s Map, piloted by Florent Geroux.

      In her five career starts, this dark bay filly has never finished less than second, and she won three. Those wins include the Darley Alcibiades Stakes (Grade I) at Keenland in October. She notably finished second in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies (Grade I) at Del Mar in November.

      Longtime Breeders’ Cup veteran Brad H. Cox trains Juju’s Map for Albaugh Family Stables LLC.
      My Saturday Horse Racing Picks for Churchill Downs

      We’re on the dirt track for race five, a 1-1/16 miles allowance optional claiming race for three-year-olds and upward. While there’s plenty of competition in this seven-horse field, I’m going to stick with the 8/5 morning-line favorite, Fulsome, with Ricardo Santana, Jr. aboard.

      This four-year-old bay colt finished ion the money eight of his 12 career starts, winning six.
      Those wins include the Oaklawn Stakes (Listed) at Oaklawn Park in May of 2021, the Matt Winn Stakes (Grade III) at here at Churchill Downs later that same month, the Smarty Jones Stakes (Grade III) at Parx Racing in August 2021, and most recently, the Oaklawn Mile Stakes (Grade III) in May.

      Brad H. Cox trains Fulsome for Juddmonte.
      Race nine — Chicago Stakes (Grade III)

      This is a $200,000 purse, seven -furlong dirt track run for fillies and mares four years old and upward. I’m going to bet my two dollars on the second-favored (at 5/2) Lady Rocket, ridden by veteran jockey Ricardo Santana, Jr.

      This dark bay mare moneyed 11 of her 13 career starts, winning six—giving her a statistical edge over the morning-line favorite.

      Lady Rocket’s recent wins include the Misty Bennett Pink Ribbon Stakes (Black Type) at Charles Town Races last August, the Pumpkin Pie Stakes (Listed) at Belmont in October, and the Go for Wand Handicap (Gr III) at Aqueduct in December.

      Brad H. Cox trains Lady Rocket for owners Frank Fletcher Racing Operations, Inc. and Ten Strike Racing.

      Race ten is a 6-1/2 furlong allowance race on the dirt track for three-year-olds and upward. My money’s on one of the 8/1 underdogs (there are three at those odds in this race): Olliemeister, piloted by veteran jockey Mitchell Murrill.

      Like the 2/1 favorite, this bay gelding won his single career start—his initial maiden attempt in April at Gulfstream Park.

      Thirty-year horse racing veteran Albert M. Stall, Jr. trains Olliemeister for owner-breeder JMJ Racing Stables LLC.
      Saturday Horse Racing Picks for Monmouth Park

      We start on the dirt track with race four, a one-mile and 70 yards allowance optional claiming run for three-year-olds and upward. I like the second-favored underdog Bourbon Frontier, with Hector Rafael Diaz, Jr. in the irons.

      This four-year-old grey roan gelding finished in the money for nine of his 15 career starts, winning five. His stats are superior to any of his competition in this six-horse field, including those of the favorite.
      Bourbon Frontier’s got this.

      A former assistant to Wayne Potts, Bonnie Lucas trains Bourbon Frontier for owner Jasen Bunsraj.

      Race ten is a six-furlong allowance optional claiming race on the dirt track for three-year-olds and upward. I don’t think even the expertise of Paco Lopez is enough to get the favorite, Hero Tiger, across the finish line ahead of the rest of this eight-horse field.

      That’s why I’m betting on the 7/2 underdog, Times Union, with Isaac Castillo at the helm.

      This four-year-old bay colt moneyed both of his career starts, winning his initial maiden attempt in April at Oaklawn, and missing first by half a length in an allowance race her at Monmouth earlier this month.

      Jerry Hollendorfer trains Times Union for owners Hollendorfer, LLC, Dennis January, and George Todaro.
      Race eleven — Goldwood Stakes

      This is a $100,000 purse, 5-1/2 furlongs run on the turf course for fillies and mares three-years old and upward. As much as I’d like to back the 9/2 underdog, Robin Sparkles, I’m betting my two dollars on the 7/2 morning-line favorite, Bay Storm, ridden by Isaac Castillo.

      Unlike Robin Sparkles (who actually has the best stats in this 14-horse field), Bay Storm has actually won a stakes race on the turf course. For the record, this four-year-old dark bay filly finished in the money six of her seven career starts, winning two.

      Her turf stakes win was in the Christiecat Stakes (Listed) at Belmont last September.

      Jonathan Thomas trains Bay Storm for Bridlewood Farm.

        Churchill Downs Picks: Chicago S. shifts to Louisville on June 25
        By J.N. Campbell


        Churchill Downs Picks - Saturday, June 25, 2022

        Race 1: 4-6-2-7
        Race 2: 6-4-1-7
        Race 3: 4-6-1-2
        Race 4: 9-6-8-3
        Race 5: 4-2-5-1
        Race 6: 2-5-1-7
        Race 7: 5-9-3-4
        Race 8: 2-1-5-7
        Race 9: 6-3-7-4
        Race 10: 10-3-7-2
        **Most Likely: Fulsome #4 (Race 5)**
        **Best Value: Perfectly Speighty #2 (Race 8)**

        Most Likely Winner: (Race 5: Fulsome #4, 8/5):

        Trainer Brad Cox worked hard with this Juddmonte homebred last year, and he did not disappoint. As stablemate of Essential Quality, this 4-yr-old was sharp on a number of occasions in races like the Oaklawn $300k, the Matt Winn (G3), and the Smarty Jones (G3). His ’22 campaign started well when he won the Oaklawn Mile (G3) by a neck. Going up against Olympiad and Happy Saver was no easy task in the Alysheba (G2), but you can expect that a return to the track in this spot should yield a favorable result. This is a much easier spot …

        Wagering Recommendation: $100 Win, #4



        Off-the-Pace Play of the Day: (Race 8: Perfectly Speighty #2, 8/1):

        It must be homebred day because here is another one. From Charles Fipke’s midst, this horse by Speightstown is making a move back to the dirt for Dallas Stewart. A former turfer, he has some class lines that look pretty inviting, and I think his price will be right, if he remains around 8/1. The able-bodied Luis Saez gets the call, and I always admire his aggressive style down the lane. He can make a difference, proving that the pilot is not just a passenger. Look for the wily Stewart to have this one ready to fire.

        Wagering Recommendation: $100 Bankroll, Graduated Wager WPS #2 ($10-W, $15-P, $75-S)



        Spotlight Race of the Day: (Race 9: Dirt, 7F, Chicago Stakes (G3), $200k, F&M 4+):

        The “feature” is one of several transplant races from Arlington Park. For the 1st time in some 20 odd years, we will not have horse racing at that palace. Never to return … This stakes contest will bring together some older female sprinters. I am pretty convinced that Brad Cox has the inside track with his mare by Tale of the Cat. Lady Rocket #3 had a strong ’21 for Frank Fletcher. She won gamely on the NYRA Circuit, and at the turn of the new year, Cox got more aggressive. A score in the Go For Wand (G3) by 9-lengths was a highlight. She wasn’t quite good enough to best Just One Time in the Madison (G1), or Search Results in the Ruffian (G2), but that doesn’t mean she cannot easily win a race like this one. Standing in her way is Greg Foley’s Sconsin #7, a 5-yr-old mare by Include that has a number of strong efforts to her credit. Mitch Murrill is getting the assignment for the 1st time, and she is a fit after a debut score at Churchill in the Winning Colors (G3) last month. This homebred for Lloyd Madison Farms knows her business, and her Twin Spires record is impressive (8/5-2-0). If she is able to earn a stalking trip, then look for her to be there in the end. One other interesting pick that could be worth a gander is not Neil Pessin’s millionaire Bell’s the One #4, but rather her rival from the Derby City Distaff (G1), Ian Wilkes’ Four Graces #6. A strong sprint/route specialist by Majesticperfection, I like the fact that she has faced some strong competition over the past year. Julien Leparoux is her regular rider, and you always have to consider his ability to be dangerous. I am skeptical that she will end up being 8/1 on the tote just before this race goes off, but one can hope. Her tactical ability makes her a threat, especially if she gets some pace to run into. Look for her to play spoiler … here is the wager that I will be playing …

        Wagering Recommendation: $2 Trifecta Box, 3/6/7

          Belmont Park Picks: Juju's Map odds on in the G2 Mother Goose on June 25
          By J.N. Campbell


          Belmont Park Picks - Saturday, June 25, 2022

          Race 1: 5-7-4-6
          Race 2: 3-2-6-4
          Race 3: 3-5-2-4
          Race 4: 7-3-2-5
          Race 5: 1-5-3-6
          Race 6: 4-3-6-2
          Race 7: 3-4-2-6
          Race 8: 4-5-1-2
          Race 9: 10-5-11-9
          Race 10: 4-1-11-5
          **Most Likely: Sinfully Sweet #4 (Race 10)**
          **Best Value: Ginnsu Warrior #3 (Race 7)**

          Most Likely Winner: (Race 10: Sinfully Sweet #4, 7/2):

          Tracy Farmer owns this filly by Twirling Candy, and she is once again taking to the grass against state bred company. This will be her 3rd start off-the-bench for trainer Mark Casse, and she just missed by a whisker at Belmont at the end of last month. Seasoned jockey Trevor McCarthy will be in the irons, and he clearly understands this one’s tendencies. The price should be pretty square at 7/2 or thereabouts.

          Wagering Recommendation: $100 Win, #4



          Off-the-Pace Play of the Day: (Race 7: Ginnsu Warrior #3, 8/1):

          Tom Morley is a strong NYRA conditioner with a good group of runners to his credit. He has an uncoupled entry in this spot, but I actually prefer the one that is better odds … 8/1. Dylan Davis will be aboard, and I am thinking his mount is going to be much better than his last couple of races have shown. If you watch those efforts, he was compromised by all sorts of issues that arose. This race is an opportunity … Let’s wager and watch …

          Wagering Recommendation: $100 Bankroll, Graduated Wager WPS #3 ($10-W, $15-P, $75-S)



          Spotlight Race of the Day: (Race 8: Dirt, 1 1/16th, Mother Goose S. (G2), $250k, 3F):

          The signature “Mother Goose” brings together some sharp young fillies that will be going around 1-turn. Running through the card for this 5-horse field, it is readily apparent that Brad Cox’s Juju’s Map #5 is probably the “deserving favorite.” That statement is based on a two-fold point … first, she is an alum of the BC Juvenile Fillies (G1), and second, since her 2022 debut at Churchill Downs was such a rousing success … winning by 4+ lengths with Florent Geroux in the irons. A daughter of Liam’s Map, she figures to be prominent as the season develops. With her regular jockey flying to New York to ride her, I have no doubts that Cox will have her ready to fire. However, I am unwilling to accept such low odds on the tote. Instead, I much prefer Chad Brown’s Gerrymander #4, a well-bred daughter of Into Mischief that deserves another crack at this kind of competition. On the Oaks Day undercard in the Eight Belles (G2), she was no match for Cox’s ace, Matareya. Maybe it was the poor start? Klaravich Stables paid a pretty penny for this one, and I am sure that Seth, and Chad for that matter, expect a much better result this time around. The reigning Eclipse Award-winning jockey, Joel Rosario, retains the mount. Based on her form from last year as a 2-yr-old, she needs to break well, and control the fractions up front. If she can do that, then we might be looking at an upset. One other entry that piques my interest is Todd Pletcher’s Shahama #1. A former Dubai stalwart, she came to Pletcher’s camp for the KYOaks at Churchill in early May. She was never going to be able to match Secret Oath or Nest, but that doesn’t mean she doesn’t have the talent to rise to the occasion in this Grade 2. Flavien Prat took her for a spin under the Twin Spires, and he returns once again in this spot. What a race this could turn out to be!

          Wagering Recommendation: $2 Trifecta Cold, 4/5/1

            DRF's Horse Racing Playbook for Saturday, June 25, 2022

            DRF Staff

            Daily Racing Form has served as the most trusted source of news and information about the sport since 1894, and moving forward we have decided to provide a free daily playbook – something that both hardcore horseplayers and casual observers can reference to get informed of each day’s action.

            12:30 GP 1st HARRY'S ONTHEFLY (#10, 8-1) a well bred sort being by Khozan and kin to graded stakes caliber turf-er Harry's Ontheloose who handled the synthetic well finishing third in an overnight handicap last fall. Trained well over the surface, must come away running from extreme outside post. -Mike Welsch | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            12:42 MTH 2nd JUST STUFF IT (#4, 6-1) has a couple of works showing that strongly suggest she has some speed, and though trainer Derek Ryan isn't especially known for winning with firsters his debut runners that have work tabs like this usually run; dam won two races, both dirt sprints, and both of her prior starters were multiple winners. -Kenny Peck | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            1:05 GP 2nd Tons of speed in this lineup, hoping AMOR LEJANO (#4, 6-1) may take advantage and come running late while getting ample class relief after being over-matched in last couple. -Mike Welsch | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            2:17 WO 3rd TRICK AND TREAT (#1, 10-1) is by the hot young high-percentage first-out sire Practical Joke and the homebred is the second foal from a stakes-winning sprinter/miler. Her works were on the quick side and her trainer can have one ready. -Ron Gierkink | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            2:20 LRL 4th BANDFROMTHEBAR (#5, 5-1) romped in his debut, so we know he can fire fresh, and he catches a weak group for his first start as a 3-year-old. Not seeing a lot of other speed so he could be gone if he breaks alertly. Would like him a bit better if the barn had better numbers with horses coming back from this kind of layoff, but Petition Prayer was coming off a longer layoff when she won her first start as a 3-year-old for Smith here June 18. -Randy Goulding | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            2:35 LS 1st GOLD VERMILION (#4, 6-1) showed speed last out in race that went in good time and for this trip adds a set of blinkers. -Mary Rampellini | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            2:45 LAD 1st DOUBLE PRIORITY (#5, 9-2) has only one win but it did come here. We think the layoff did some good and his return try was an even effort. He beat half the field home in his most recent even though cutting back to a sprint. Now he returns to two turns and figures as good a trip as anyone. G'S STORM missed a Beyer top by only two points in his most recent. This gelding should be the speed and he goes second time this dirt all on the stretch-out. -Scott Ehlers | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            2:57 MTH 7th HAZARDOUS HUMOR (#10, 6-1) is a DRF Best Bet (Kenny Peck). | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            3:13 LAD 2nd TAY TAY'S BABY (#1, 9-2) only lost by two lengths in her most recent but it came on the grass something she is not bred for (217 turf Tomlinson). So....that effort is better than it looks, right? Now she gets back to the dirt all for a barn that is 19% grass to dirt. The jock switch to Nieves could be telling as he wins at 27% for team Broberg. The rail draw might actually be a plus as this filly ran great the last two times she drew it (5 and 6 back). -Scott Ehlers | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            3:44 GP 7th UNIQUE TIME (#6, 8-1) showed signs of life despite slow start first time for team Sano and not facing any better the second time around for current connections. Might prove good fit here. -Mike Welsch | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            3:51 MTH 9th KARL CARES (#10, 15-1) ran into some traffic trouble at a crucial point in the race last time out, and that cost him; he may well have been able to win that race, his first try against winners, if he enjoyed a better trip and he's capable of making amends today given clear sailing late. -Kenny Peck | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            4:08 LS 4th CUCINA (#6, 6-1) makes his Lone Star debut after some competitive turf sprint efforts in both Southern California and New York. He also has reason to move forward in his second start since March. -Mary Rampellini | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            4:20 MTH 10th TIMES UNION (#6, 7-2) was beaten a half-length in that first try against winners, a very good effort and a race he could have won had he not been forced to wait for room on the turn; he closed nicely once clear and galloped out well past the wire, making it seem as if he will show much more today if he's able to avoid traffic. -Kenny Peck | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            4:27 WO 7th TAQUANYAH (#3, 8-1) tracked the leaders from a three-wide position on the turn en route to finishing third after switching leads late in her comeback on the main turf. That race should set her up nicely for her first try around two turns in this 7 1/2-furlong inner turf tilt. -Ron Gierkink | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            5:32 LRC 2nd FUNKENSTEIN (#4, 4-1) left himself with too much to do in a $16K sprint at SA June 18 but kept to his task to pass a few and finish 3rd. Stute not only saw fit to claim him, he brings him back with a more-than-mandatory price hike and in just a week. The 4yo ran very well here in the fall. -Michael Hammersly | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            5:35 LRL 10th MASTER OF MANHATAN (#11, 8-1) just about dwelt coming out of the starting gate in his debut and after moving into the mix on the second turn, he understandably tired. He should be fitter for this and could make a big impact if he breaks with the field. -Randy Goulding | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            6:02 WO 10th STRONGER TOGETHER (#4, 6-1) has been gelded since a wide/closing fourth in a slow-paced route three weeks ago and could improve significantly with Hernandez taking over. The fast worker was good enough to finish third in last year's Cup and Saucer Stakes. -Ron Gierkink | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            7:28 LRC 6th FORGOTTEN VOWS (#5, 4-1) comes off a sharp 2nd vs. $8K maidens at GG May 29 so he's doing well. Wong not only saw fit to claim him (and has super off-the-claim numbers) he brings him back well up in price, which is most encouraging. And while that good run came on GG synthetic note some good dirt form at SA in February. -Michael Hammersly | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            7:40 CBY 4th EL DIABLO GUAPO (#5, 6-1) is by a 4% debut sire and a 0 for 8 debut turf sire. His dam was un-raced. One of two sibs won and did beat winners. Lone sib to try the grass missed the board in only start. Trying two turns on the turf in your debut is tough but this gelding has a long string of works to have him ready. Wade gets a leg up and is 42% for this barn. -Scott Ehlers | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            8:10 CBY 5th SUNDANCE STAR (#7, 4-1) adds a full furlong and draws the attack post for this elongated sprint. When last seen going this distance, this 4YO broke her maiden as the big chalk and on this dirt. We rather like her return start as she passed some horses inside the 1/8th pole. We spy a recent work and expect a good price. -Scott Ehlers | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            9:40 CBY 8th HOT HABANERO (#8, 15-1) will be a big price. This mare is bred to like the turf. Who is quicker? If this mare breaks well and shows speed we bet the other speed simply lets her go. She did break her maiden wire to wire only two back. -Scott Ehlers | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            7:45 MED (Harness) 5th GRACELYN HANOVER (#3, 6-1) moves up from the NW2 class but won in a lifetime-best mile last time out, and I think she might have a chance to steal this race on the lead. – Greg Reinhart | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            8:20 YR (Harness) 5th NEWSBOY (#5, 6-1) debuts for trainer Per Engblom in this race. That factor has been moving up many horses at venues around the Northeast lately, and I will swing with him. – Greg Reinhart | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

            8:45 WBS (Harness) 6th This is a big drop for BETTER BE DONNA N (#6, 3-1), and it would be no surprise to see her dominate these on the front end; top call. – Garnet Barnsdale

                  The Jury: Bets and fades for June 25

                  A relatively light stakes weekend is on tap in advance of bigger happenings over the next two, but the TwinSpires Jury of James Scully, Vance Hanson, and Ashley Anderson have nonetheless found some plays and fades to follow.
                  What is your best bet?

                  James Scully: #2 Pennybaker (8-1) in the Chicago S. (G3) at Churchill Downs. The four-year-old showed little on turf early in her career, but recorded four straight convincing wins when switching to synthetic tracks in France last fall. The Medaglia d'Oro filly made her U.S. debut in the April 16 Heavenly Cause S. over a one-turn mile at Laurel, and Pennybaker rolled from just off the pace, winning under wraps by a 6 3/4-length margin. Her Brisnet Speed rating (98) came back strong, the second-best last-out figure in the seven-horse field, and Pennybaker will have more to offer for Michael Stidham.

                  Vance Hanson: Connections succumbed to Kentucky Oaks (G1) fever last month, but that can be forgiven if #2 Venti Valentine (5-1) finds the return to one turn agreeable in Saturday's 1 1/16-mile Mother Goose (G2) at Belmont Park. The daughter of Firing Line is 0-for-3 around two turns, but perfect from three outings around one. The latter includes a decisive score in the Maid of the Mist S. against New York-breds over this track last fall, and the one-mile Busher S. at Aqueduct against open company in early March. Although she missed out on the Acorn (G1) earlier this month after taking the U-turn to go for the Oaks, this arguably is a more winnable spot.

                  Ashley Anderson: UAE Oaks (G3) champ #1 Shahama (9-5) suffered the lone loss of her five-race career when she came home sixth in the Kentucky Oaks (G1) last out after getting bumped near the five-sixteenths pole. In her second start on U.S. dirt, Shahama drew the favorable rail post in the Mother Goose for trainer Todd Pletcher, who has won this race a record-tying six times, most recently in 2021 with Zaajel. I’ll back the Munnings filly over 1-1 morning line favorite Juju’s Map, who makes a move up in class after winning an allowance on May 6 by 4 3/4 lengths on the Kentucky Oaks undercard.

                  Who is the horse to fade?

                  JS: #5 Juju's Map received a dream trip when returning in a May 6 allowance at Churchill Downs, dominating a paceless race on the front end, but there's speed to her inside in the Mother Goose starting gate. Her Brisnet Speed rating (93) came back soft, and I will try to beat the even-money morning line favorite in any multi-race wagers.

                  VH: Although the potential lone speed in the Chicago at Churchill Downs, #3 Lady Rocket (5-2) looks undervalued on the morning line. Lady Rocket is cutting back in distance after fading late in the one-mile Ruffian (G2), but has a bit of history flaming out, even at distances shorter than seven furlongs, when the competition is strong enough. Her gaudy win in the Go for Wand H. (G3) over a mile sticks out on the past performances, but this field is significantly deeper and I suspect some competitor won't allow her to open up too large of an advantage early.

                  AA: While #7 Sconsin (2-1) has won back to back at Churchill under Tyler Gaffalione, the five-year-old will get a rider switch with Mitchell Murrill in the competitive Chicago S. on Saturday. The Greg Foley trainee beat rival #4 Bell’s the One (7-2) by only a half-length two back in September in the Open Mind Stakes, and Bell’s the One has shown some improvement in her six-year-old season. The mare flashed a 101 Speed figure in the Madison (G1) at Keeneland, then disappointed with a fourth-place finish in the Derby City Distaff (G1) last out on May 7. Rival #6 Four Graces (8-1) surprised with a second-place finish in that race with a 99 BRIS figure, the highest last race speed rating of the field. #3 Lady Rocket (5-2), with Ricardo Santana Jr. picking up the mount, and #2 Pennybaker, off her winning debut on U.S. dirt, should pose the greatest threat to Sconsin.

                  What else is worth noting?

                  JS: The presence of Pineapple Man should ensure a solid pace in the Ohio Derby (G3), and #7 Tawny Port (3-1) will look to take advantage. The well-bred colt was thrown into the deep waters in February, splitting the field to finish fifth in the Risen Star (G2), and he's progressed nicely in the last three outings for Brad Cox, rallying for seventh in the Kentucky Derby most recently. His worktab suggests readiness, and I like Tawny Port's chances from off the pace.

                  VH: The premier race in Europe this weekend is the Irish Derby (G1) at the Curragh on Saturday, a 1 1/2-mile showdown that pits Epsom Oaks (G1) upsetter Tuesday against Westover, who finished an unlucky third in the Epsom Derby (G1). Aidan O'Brien is bidding to win his 15th Irish Derby with Yesterday, but no filly has triumphed in the classic in nearly 30 years. It doesn't appear on paper to be a great wagering opportunity, but from a sporting perspective this Irish Derby should be a fascinating watch.

                  AA: In Saturday's Ohio Derby (G3) at Thistledown, Kentucky Derby also-rans Tawny Port, White Abarrio, and Classic Causeway will face late Kentucky Derby scratch Ethereal Road, who won the Sir Barton S. on the Preakness undercard at last asking. While those names will draw plenty of interest, I'm curious to see how Wood Memorial (G2) fifth-placer Barese (9-2) competes in this spot. The Uncle Mo grandson last finished third in the 6 1/2-furlong New York Stallion Stakes and will return to a route distance for trainer Mike Maker. Two back, the three-year-old clocked a 105 BRIS figure at today's distance, and the addition of Lasix could get him back to the winner's circle for the first time since February's Gander Stakes.
