Down to the Wire – Fountain of Youth/Risen Star

This week on Down to the Wire with Cappingwithcandice we start off the show with a review of the El Camino Real, discuss the big victory by Bayern.  Hat tip the big victory by Kobe’s Back and have a couple of opinions on the top 3 finishers of the Southwest Stakes.

The current week previews the 6th Race at Gulfstream, and full houses in the Fountain of Youth and Risen Star.  My complete analysis of the Fountain of the Youth  and Risen Star are already available.

Overall Candice liked Commissioner, I’m not a big fan of Commissioner in this spot with the post position and he may get shuffled back and trapped at the rail.

Candice and I both agreed the Risen Star is a chance to take a swing at some prices.  This is not the spot for Rise Up.  Vicar’s in Trouble has an outside post and that may hamper his efforts, but he is in solid form right now.

Selections this week include:

Derbyologist:

6th at Gulfstream:  Wicked Strong

Fountain of Youth: We Miss Artie

Risen Star:  Hoppertunity

Candice:

6th at Gulfstream:  Constitution

Fountain of Youth: Commissioner
