*** RACE SIX ANALYSIS ***
(# 2) SMILE DOWN ON ME Did not show much in his first three starts, all at the maiden special level, but came to life when dropped into an expensive maiden claimer. That was also his first start with blinkers. He stalked the pace from the beginning and, although unable to threaten the winner, missed by just a length. Another effort like that one would be very hard for these colts to beat. Enters off a strong 5 furlong breeze, indicating that another big race is likely. It will take a hot first time starter to beat him. Jamie Theriot replaces an out of town Albarado. (# 5) FOREST TANGO Forestry colt has not been seen since his debut at Saratoga last summer. He took some betting action but broke slowly and failed to threaten. He returns off four evenly-spaced half mile drills for David Carroll. His most recent was his fastest. Carroll wins with 17% of his returning vacationers. (# 6) ESSENCE OF SPEED Essence Of Dubai colt is a half to three winners and is bred to be quick. He debuts off several fast 5 furlong works for Ed Johnston. His 1:00 3/5 breeze on March 7 was a best-of-35 drill. Gets Lasix for a barn that wins with 19% of their first time starters. (# 7) LONE CYPRESS Makes debut for a good 1st out trainer Al Stall. Shows good steady works over this course. (# 4) OSAGE COUNTY Has had several chances, but should improve dropping into a claimer for the 1st time for trainer Stidham who already has 2 wins on the card.
