Race 9
Overview A very strong AOC, with a potentially vulnerable favorite in #2 Forza Di Oro (9-5), who faces older off a November layoff.
Pace It figures to be a bit on the tepid side, so an inside draw and the ability to lay close early will be key.
Trends Tactical speed, as per usual, has been extremely important, with very few winners coming from off the pace early in the meet.
