*** RACE EIGHT ANALYSIS *** by The Wizard on Saturday, August 15, 2009

ANALYSIS OF THESE HORSES ARE PLACED IN POST POSITION ORDER. THESE ARE NOT MY SELECTIONS.

2 LITTLE NANCY
Beat $50,000 maiden claimers at Fair Grounds then was overmatched in each of her three subsequent starts. This big class drop and the switch from turf back to poly make her a contender.

6 DROPLET
Raced on the turf in her first 3 starts of the meet then broke her maiden when switched to poly last out. She stalked a fast pace, opened a clear lead in the lane then held on for the win. Would not need much better to handle these soft winners.

8 McCLEE’S CREEK
Didn't prove a factor on the turf at Ellis last out but returns to the main strip here at Arlington today where she just finished a good second at this same class condition in previous start.

9 BUDDHAFUL LADY
3yo filly followed her 4 1/2 length maiden win in her second trip to the post here with a game second stretching out to a mile last out. Barn moves her up in class today but she still merits a look with Riggs.
