Weekend Winners Club

Dec 18 2015

Los Alamitos Futurity Sat Dec 19 $350K G1 for 2yos 8.5f

This weekend, Los Al has mostly racing as usual, except for one conspicuous G1 Futurity worth $350k. Baffert brings in the pair of favorites, Mor Spirit and Toews on Ice, and will be hard to beat as usual.

Doug O’Neill also brings in a pair which are long shots like the rest of the field: Frank Conversation and Sorryaboutnothing. Eoin Harty trains the inside post Urlacher, Peter Miller has 3rd choice Hollywood Don, and Jerry Hollendorfer rounds out the field with I’malreadythere for a field of seven 2yo’s going 8.5f.

The early favorite Mor Spirit from PA is the only horse not bred in KY or FL but is from Eskendereya from the Storm Cat and Giant Causeway line. He placed 2nd in the Kentucky Jockey Club G2 after breaking his maiden at a mile.

Toews on Ice is by Arkansas Derby winner ArchArchArch, who was injured in the Kentucky Derby. He has won two juveniles already including the Bob Hope G3, but due to pedigree would appear to be best suited for turf.
