Spot Plays for 7/7/2009

River Downs

Race 3: # 5 La Rockette ships back to the River for today's contest and should spring the upset in this spot. She has been facing tougher at Churchill and could step her game up in this starter allowance contest. She has been off for about a month or so and should be fresh for this outing. With Juan Enriquez in the irons look for a solid effort from La Rockette today.

Race 4: # 2 Mini Lamp gets on the grass for the first time and should relish the going today. Everything in her breeding suggest that grass is where she wants to be and her latest workout shows she is fit. Hector Rosario, Jr. is starting to heat up and hopefully he can get Mini Lamp home on top today.

Race 7: # 1 Serengeti Wonder returns from a short layoff and should be ready to go. He is another one that is bred well for the lawn and he comes from a barn that does very well here at River and very well with it's turf runners. Only concern is there are no workouts for this return. If all goes well look for Serengeti Wonder and Edgar Paucar to get home on top today.

Race 9: # 4 Calling for Storms gets on a surface he should love and should be a big factor today. He ran very well in his debut only to come up short and hopefully he learned alot from that effort. His breeding is for distance and for grass and surely he can fire today. Mike Rone is a solid conditioner and getting Perry Ouzts in the irons is a plus. Look for a winning effort from Calling for Storms today.
