Some insights into tonight’s end-of-month racing program for our IdaBet.com players:

1ST RACE – (5) GHOSTTOTHEPOST was a ‘peeked’ bridesmaid (to eight-holer here) in last try. Hoping venue reversal leads to role reversal in light opener.

4TH RACE – (4) SHOWMEYOURGUNS comes off pair of thirds this level, chasing No. 6 here twice. Draws inside that one, so same angle as prior endorsee.

5TH RACE – (2) JERICHO DIVA makes seasonal debut after frosh success

against second-level statebreds. May very well be a reach, but let’s gaze, anyway.

6TH RACE – (2) HANDSOFFMYCHIPS recovered from early self-inflicted wound to easily dispose of lesser. Surmise again gonna be forwardly-placed here.

9TH RACE – (4) HALLIE’S COMET has wound up third in each of last pair versus this sort. Eligible to improve after some impediments in latest, we take shot.  

10TH RACE – (3) LATE MAIL N has done good things by leaving gate and getting well-placed. Lass returns to ‘inflated’ restricted condition, that won’t hurt.

Monomoy Girl, who won Keeneland’s $500,000 Central Bank Ashland (G1) on April 7, is among the eight alumni of Keeneland’s 2016 September Yearling Sale entered today in Friday’s 144^th running of the $1 million Kentucky Oaks (G1) at Churchill Downs.

Monomoy Girl is the 2-1 morning-line favorite for the Oaks, a 1 1/8-mile race for 3-year-old fillies. Post time is 6:12 p.m. ET.

In 2016, Cathryn Sophia won the Oaks following a third-place finish in the Central Bank Ashland. In 2015, Lovely Maria captured the Central Bank Ashland as a steppingstone to victory in the Oaks.
