Colonial Downs (Virginia Derby Day)

[Pigpen]

Race 1:

#2 Rhythm and Power
This maiden ran for the first time on turf in her last effort. If she can improve on that effort it puts her right there with these and I like the price.

Race 1: Out of the money

Race 2:

#3 John the Bear
His last race here in the mud is not that bad. Jock and trainer combo have had a couple winners of late and the price is right.

Race 1: Out of the money
Race 2: Out of the money

Race 3:
Passing on this race as the #8 Enola Gay is a G2 winner and a short price in here 2nd off a layoff. Odds way too short for my liking.

Race 4:

#14 Esperer
French bred that has 4 career starts. Hoping she has figured it out in her 5th start. I think this is a wide open event.

Race 5:
#10 English Tavern
Ran third in his last here at 30-1, beaten only half a length. 4yo gelding out of English Channel has had 2 nice races over the course. The trainer/jock combo has 5 winners from their last 6 starters over the last 14 days.

Race 6
#5 Tightly Twisted
Winner of a $100K stake in her last outing. Winner of 2 in a row and I am hoping she holds form to make it 3 straight. Currently 8-1 on the board. Hoping to catch a bit of a price with her.
