RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: FOUROUTOFFIVE (5) doesn’t win out of turn, but he’s run some really good races this campaign against strong opposition and might represent the value here in the last of 10. He was caught parked and still ran second to the flying Alrighty his last two, and produced solid efforts for third behind free-for-all class trotters Hoppy and Gatesys Gem prior to that. This looks his type of contest. QUIRKY CHARACTER (4) has been back to the trials since a string of plain efforts and is certainly a major winning hope at his best, IJUSTCALLEDTOSAY (6) claimed his third win this campaign coming from off speed to run down ALDEBARAN ABEL (1) last week and can score again, while DICHOTOMY (7) chased hard for third after galloping early last week behind I Am Wilma and actually did well to get so close. She’s talented on her day and wouldn’t shock.
