#5 MATTY'S MARAUDER (ML=8/1)
MATTY'S MARAUDER - Lets try to beat the morning-line choices with this gelding. Just missed last out, but ran a decent race. True, this thoroughbred is coming off a layoff, but this gelding runs well fresh. 35-76-80 are last 3 Equibase speed figures. Improving each time out is something he should do again right here. Getting a weight break of 7 pounds from last race at Belmont Park on April 28th. Could be helpful in this race.
Vulnerable Contenders: #7 ICON (ML=5/2), #4 ARTHURIAN (ML=7/2), #2 VINCENT (ML=9/2),
ICON - This gelding hasn't had any recent success in sprint races. I find it hard to bet on him in this contest. ARTHURIAN - Will probably be way back with much too much to do in the stretch. VINCENT - In any affair of 6 furlongs, I like to support a contender that has been looking good in short distance races lately. The result of sixth in the last affair shows me that this equine may be tailing off.
GUEST COMMENTARY: Hal - MATTY'S MARAUDER - Coming off a very strong final fraction on April 28th, this gelding is going to be difficult to beat today.| STRAIGHT WAGERS: | Put your money on #5 MATTY'S MARAUDER on the nose if you can get odds of 1/1 or more |
