Stakes Spotlight
Aqueduct Race 8
Post Time 1:58 PM CST
GAZELLE STAKES (G3):
#2 WHOCOULDASKFORMO comes into this race live and looking to pull off the upset over 35 LIFE TALK, a solid favorite and the horse to beat. WHOCOULDASKFORMO debuted at AQU before turned up at TAM where she could run in the two turn races and a BTL effort on the day in the Suncoast stakes. She kept up her conditioning in the Davona Dale (G2) and flattered with Leslie's Rose coming back with a dominant effort in the Ashland (G1) on the Friday card.
Keeneland Race 7
Post Time 3:14 PM CST
APPALACHIAN STAKES (G2):
#11 SIMPLY IN FRONT caught the eye in her debut as a quality type and validated those visuals with the confident move and place finish in the Natalma (G1), a race won by the talented, She Feels Pretty, one that would be favored if she were running in this race. SIMPLY IN FRONT held her form closing out the year with the effort in the Mazarine (G3) compromised by the race dynamic/X_FLOW. SIMPLY IN FRONT will make her first start of the year and while she does show just the limited return works, the longer drills suggest she has been working on a farm prior to heading to the track this year. Her work on 3/29 was best in hand over 4yo stablemate, Safeen, the Pucker Up (G3) stakes winner last summer at ELP.
