Tuesday's Best Bet: Leaky Cauldron rallies boldly at Penn National
Tuesday’s 4th race from Penn National is a $31,600 entry level allowance event for Pennsylvania-bred fillies and mares dashing six furlongs on the main track (Post Time 7:22 p.m. ET).
#1 LEAKY CAULDRON (5-2) was fractious at the gate and did not put her best foot forward vs. this kind July 16. She reconnects with Tyler Conner and he rode her well in a couple of local dirt sprints in June. She can bounce back while saving ground behind the speed.
#6 Katesaluckygirl (7-2) cut back in distance and looked good graduating in a local six panel special weight heat July 7. She will probably press Secret Banker early and might get first run if/when that one tires.
#5 Secret Banker (2-1) wired the field in her Parx debut, and dueled and weakened in in both starts vs. winners. She adds blinkers and has a decent shot if she can get to the front early.
#3 Congrats Answer (4-1) does her best work at this distance. She has been freshened for this and will probably stalk the pace.
