WEEK 18 FEATURE RACES

Fortune’s Freude

Wednesday, Oct. 21, Race 5, purse $23,100, ALW/$40,000 claiming, fillies & mares 3-year-olds & up, 6 ½ Furlongs: After missing by a head vs. Alittlelesstalk in the Washington Cup, razor-sharp Fortune’s Freude drew a good post and should rebound against a good field of older fillies and mares. Dontkissntell has lost all four starts this year, three against Alitttlelesstalk and one against Killarney Lass. She faces neither of those fillies here and cuts back to perhaps her most effective distance. Paddy’s Secret ate up ground late to grab second in the WA Cup, and she did win a sprint stakes in Phoenix two years ago. Diamonds R is better than her seventh in the Washington Cup and worked a bullet half-mile last week. Neither Windy Point nor For You Only wanted any part of two turns, but the speedy 3-year-olds have both run well at 6 1/2 furlongs.

Lolo Paniolo

Thursday, Oct. 22, Race 9: purse $20,900 ALW/$30,000 claiming, 3-year-olds, 6 ½ furlongs: Four of the seven horses exit the same Oct. 8 race in which Lolo Paniolo took advantage of a favorable pace scenario to win going away in 1:36 for a flat mile. Lolo has won sprinting and routing this year and has run three good races for this rider. Spittin Image was bound to be compared to O B Harbor, his talented older brother who was the best horse at this track four years ago. Spittin Image isn’t quite there yet, but he’s improving every out and a big threat to take this field gate to wire. Muncey has earned $23,000 this season the hard way, piling up seconds and thirds in stakes and allowances short and long vs. the likes of Unmachable and Papa’s Golden Boy. He finished third as the 3 to 5 favorite two weeks ago, but might have lost his punch while laying closer to the pace than normal. Stand To is improving with every race and held his own in his first against winners. Aero Street has a good stretch kick but is facing tougher rivals.
