Spot Plays for 9/5/2009

River Downs

Race 10: # 3 The War Department makes her first start in Ohio and this buckeye-bred daughter of Lost Solider looks to make it a winning one. She enjoyed the strechout last time over the Indy turf course and since then she has been working well down a Keeneland for a return to the races. She gets a new jock in Edgar Paucar who has been hot as of late and should guide The War Department to the winner's circle today.

Race 12: # 6 Jody Slew won for fun in her River debut and should double up today. She has worked well since her start over this oval and her breeding suggest she will only improve with each start. With Perry Ouzts in the irons look for a big run from Jody Slew today.

Saratoga

Race 5: # 5 King Kitten finally gets on the grass today and should run big today. The connecitons tried to get him on the grass last out and the race got rained off the turf. His effort in that race was decent enough and since that run his morning works have been really strong. He gets one of the better turf riders in Julien Leparoux in the saddle which will be key. Look for a winning effort from King Kitten today.
