Key Races & Bets for Saturday November 23rd, 2024
New York Stallion Series Stakes (Fillies & Mares) – Race 7 at Aqueduct – Post Time 3:08 PM Eastern
Win Contenders: Athena Beach, Brown Suga Babe
Athena Beach has won six of 12 races and has been second in two others. Her record in races at a mile or less is even better at 6-2-1 in 11 races. Although her first try in a stakes race for NY Breds only (last month) was the worse effort of her career, as she finished fifth, the issue that day was she drew the rail and was sent hard for the lead before tiring. One race before that when she got the five post she led from the start and even though passed after a half mile came back to win. That’s the race we can expect her to run here and that race, if repeated, is good enough to win.
