Selections By “The Ace” John Hernandez – Feb 15

RACE 1 6 Gold In This Lane journeyed to Ocala to run there January 26 … the 5YO mare is still winless after 16 starts. 2 Grannys Rocket has finished 3rd in 2 straight at the meet … her trainer/jockey tandem have won some races. 8 Adrinni moves up to the $10K MCL level for a top trainer/jockey duo … maybe he can have an impact here.

RACE 2 4 Shezmissindependent is dropped in for a tag and gets Rodrigo Vallejo … those two changes make the diff! 3 Checkin Out Checks looks like a contender at 220 yards … his young pilot will have to keep him focused. 2 Tf Painted Strawfly runs for the third time this season … give the 4YO mare a chance to be a contender.

RACE 3 5 Bold Medal Jess runs for “under the radar” trainer Ruben Flores … he rallied strongly in his most recent out. 6 Bravadan had trouble as a beaten favorite January 29 … jockey Cristian Esqueda is having a strong season. 4 Hiclass Attraction probably “needed one” in early January … don’t be surprised to see a better try this time.

RACE 4 5 Cashs Menace had trouble last start at...

INSIDE IS THE SHORTEST WAY AROUND FOR NYQUIST

Nyquist makes his much-anticipated three-year-old debut Monday in the Grade II San

Vicente Stakes at seven furlongs, the first step on what Team O’Neill hopes will lead to the Kentucky Derby on May 7.

Winner of all five career starts, his last three Grade I stakes including the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Oct. 31, Nyquist drew the rail against five rivals, not necessarily any trainer’s favorite post position sprinting, but Doug O’Neill is taking it in stride.

“I think with a good horse, it’s part of it,” he said. “You take what they give you, and

sometimes the rail’s not a bad thing. It’s the shortest way around. You just have to break good. We’re pretty confident in Nyquist. He’s a good...

Our IdaBet.com players sure enjoyed the stakes action on Saturday night that included three features with two upsets in the $50,000 Houston Distaff and $50,000 Houston Turf and impressive finish in the $50,000 Sam Houston Sprint Cup. Some of our IdaBet.com horseplayers were able to take advantage of some large payoffs. Congratulations!

Expect Royalty Pulls the Upset in the $50,000 Houston Distaff

Seneca Destiny, winner of the 2016 San Jacinto Stakes on January 22 at Sam Houston Race Park, was sent off as the betting choice in tonight’s first feature, the $50,000 Houston Distaff. However, it was the winner of the 2015 San Jacinto, Expect Royalty, who came flying in the final furlong of the mile and one-sixteenth turf feature, to score the upset.

Trained by Leroy Pollok, and owned by his wife, Loyana, the 6-year-old daughter of Valid Expectations ran fifth to Seneca Destiny last month. But with regular rider, Iram Vargas Diego aboard, she returned her stakes-winning form this evening. Molly’s Honor set the early pace under jockey Lindey Wade, covering the first quarter in :25.20 and the half-mile in :50.11.  A trio of runners got into gear and made the late bid, with Expect Royalty winning by a nose over Whiskey Eyes. The final time, over the firm Connally turf course, was 1.44.19.

“She’d been off five months and needed that last race,” said Pollok. “I thought she could do it and tonight she proved she’s back. Iram gave her a great ride; we are blessed to have him.  It didn’t look like he had much room, but he spotted a little hole and got through.”

Diego won four races on the card this evening and is engaged in a contentious battle with David...
