This 4yo by 'Tiznow' tired while wide when sprinting against tougher April 5 in his first start in 11 months. In the barn of leading trainer Bob Diodoro, he drops him into a claimer, (five for his last 11, 45%), stretches him out (25%), and he wins at a 26% rate second back off of long layoffs.
2nd pick: #3 (Reach the Moon) (2-1) - This son of 'Tapit' moves to the dirt and drops in class following a pair of solid efforts when facing tougher on the Fair Grounds grass. 4yo worked fast March 21, and trainer Brad Cox wins at a 24% rate on this particular drop, 11 of 49 since Jan. 1 of 2019.
3rd pick: #13 (Run Tech) (8-1) - Colt raced evenly while never involved when sprinting here for a $20K tag April 9. It was his second back following almost a 6.5-month layoff. He's back in 17 days, takes a slight drop, and is stretching back out. His outside post may limit him to a minor award.
4th pick: #8 (Fudge Tough) (9-2) - 4yo has more early speed than most, and he drops from a $30K tag to race for a $16K one for the first time. He's racing third back following a six-month layoff and must be left in the mix.
