Your Sunday Stakes Sweep: April 3, 2011

Aqueduct sighting! Aqueduct…sighting! Aqueduct! Sighting!

Take it easy there, ya Big Apple loversz! One playable race emerges from Jamaica Bay, and it’s a doozy, as they say in your language.

It’s the eighth, the Love is Eternal, and the morning-line favourite is deeply buried by all of All-In-One V6’s various accounts. This allows for a longshot stab on #2 Good Habits.

One of the Fla. Derby undercard stakes (the ninth, the Grade III Skip Away) is available on the free page.

Otherwise, the Grade I Derby itself is the 10th, and from our way of looking at it, there’s no standout or even top duo. #8 Flashpoint appears to have more ability than the public will credit him for, though. We shall see.

Interesting Race 8 today at Santa Anita. The Grade II Potrero Grande is a real scramble, 10 entered, and most of them having the necessary credentials. Can’t really narrow it to a single, but #2 Amazombie, #3 Chocolate Candy and #6 M One Rifle get extra mention.

As always, best wishes for a prosperous Sunday!
