When owners and breeders are sorting through their catalogs looking to create the next Frankenstein horse, I doubt they are crossing their fingers to one day dominate the Filly & Mare Turf division. But here we are, Race 6 at Monmouth Park, the owner still gets a chance to win $2 million.
The competition hosts a fine young set that may be judged more by their birthing hips than what they do on Saturday. But since this is the first race in the Pick 6, we need to find a champion.
After analyzing the furture baby mamas, it is clear that this is a tough start to the Pick 6. I like the chances of 7 of the 12 horses.
There is no way I'm picking 7 horses for one race, so I need to leave the drama for my mama and pick one. I'm going with one of the favorites, Nashoba's Key. This horse doesn't know what it feels like to lose. However, she does like to make it interesting.
She knows how to stalk and is coming off some quality wins. The only question is whether she can handle the distance with the European imports.
Of the other seven that I like, Passage of Time, Precious Kitten and Wait a While.
For the bettors:
Lowest odds of 2,3,4,5,9,11, or 12 to win
Pick 6, 3 plus any of the above
