Maiden King

Maiden Special Weight, 5-1/2 furlongs, 3-year-olds

Possible overlays                                  Morning line

#4 Jacob’s Little Bro                                  10/1

Seven colts are running for the first time in this eight-horse field of California breds.

Debuters from the powerful Harris Farms stable tend to run well when bet below 10/1 and #6 Vaundell is the 5/2 morning line choice. Howard Zucker trains #2 Charlie and Chris, who has a couple of fast workouts. Blogger Mary Forney watched Charlie and Chris school in the paddock recently and was impressed with him. 

I plan to stay out of this race for the most part. At the window, I will wager $150 on Jacob’s Little Bro at 10/1 to 19/1.
