Start Reggae 6 with Queen Zan, Silver Fox
START Saturday's Reggae 6 with QUEEN ZAN and SILVER FOX, the horses who two and a half lengths separated at four furlongs straight on June 28. Never mind QUEEN ZAN beating SILVER FOX, both changed stables via the claim box out of that race, moving to new barns, suggesting their form could go either way.
In the second Reggae 6 event, PHOENIX RISEN is fastest on paper but hasn't raced since finishing lame in February. There is absolutely no need to play remote vet. It's rare that a closer wins a race out the five-straight chute. Therefore go with all the speed horses, BASILICUS, PHOENIX RISEN, PRINCESS AKILAH, PHENOMENAL ONE and RHOSA THE WARRIOR.
Bank XYLOPHONIC STEEL, who has the perfect draw to go all the way out the straight course in the third, as well as DESERT OF MALIBU to blind FUNCAANDUN with speed out the mile chute.
CLEOPATRA QUEEN should be the subject of a gamble in the fifth, a foreigner among four-year-olds, non-winners of two races at five furlongs round, journeyman Ian Spence handed the reins after his smooth victories aboard grade-one bound RIDEALLDAY.
Close the Reggae 6 with Anthony Nunes' UNDISCLOSDLOCATION thrown in on a $700,000 claim tag as the trainers' stakes battle rages with rival Jason DaCosta.
