FRIDAY'S LAS VEGAS MARATHON STAKES RACE

RACE 2            LAS VEGAS MARATHON STAKES GRADE 2

Las Vegas Marathon is one mile and a three quarter's on the dirt........weird race because we do not see this type of race very often. So you can play or pass because my clarity with marathons is poor.

ANALYSIS:

The pace looks like it will be fast and contested.......I was impressed with Baffer's horse Sky Kingdom who likes this course and is  marathoner........His race with Shared Belief he was wide and ran with him before fading.......it was not the best ride by Victor who knows him well.......The last time he ran a marathon at this track I was blown away on how good of a performance he gave us.........the main question is he is a slight head case.........and will the real Sky Kingdom show up today is my main concern with him. He can win this but.......

Cary Street looks to have the right running style with this field going to the lead and being contested early.......He has both speed to get in the right position near the rail and wait till the true racing begins......when this field turns for home. He will need to catch Big Cazanova and Mystery Train.........Big Cazanova looks to be the speed of this race.......you will need to catch him and if given a slow easy lead then he will be hard to collar at the wire.......the added distance is my main concern with him. But he is the morning line favorite.
