Live with The Wizard: HORSES TO WATCH AND FINAL TRACK BIAS

Outside paths and tactical speed were best on the polytrack. The soft grass course favored tactical speed.

HORSES TO WATCH AUG 8

1st race GENERAL CHARLEY
7yo looked great in the paddock. Normally a stalker, he found himself setting a pressured pace. He held the lead into deep stretch before yielding to the heavily favored winner. The rest of the field was far back. Should run big right back.

4th race JIMMY GOT EVEN
Son of Stephen Got Even was far back in his debut then rallied strongly and missed by just 4 lengths. He is bred for a route, so look for Divito to stretch him out, possibly with another sprint under his belt.

5th race SHE BE WILD
Filly from the first crop of Offlee Wild (Wild Again) had been off since she blasted maiden claimers in her debut in May. She dusted a very decent field of stakes fillies, an effort that was visually extremely impressive. Unlimited potential at this point.
