Bay Shore

A short field of five is entered for Saturday’s $150,000 Bay Shore S. (G3) at
Aqueduct. Highlighting the field is TOO MUCH BLING (Rubiano), who comes off a
good score in the San Vicente S. (G2) at Santa Anita. The Bob Baffert-trained
gray is the most class tested of the bunch and looks hard to bet against
here.  The sophomore colt has off-track experience,
which could come in handy with rain in the forecast. Garrett Gomez has the call.

SONGSTER (Songandaprayer) is a confirmed front runner who makes the trip
north for conditioner Tom Albertrani for this seven-furlong affair. The black
colt comes off a good second in an allowance/optional claiming event to eventual
Spectacular Bid S. winner Exclusive Quality (Elusive Quality). He has earned
triple-digit BRIS Speed figures in his only two career races and should put up a
good fight under jockey Edgar Prado.

ONE WAY FLIGHT (Precise End) exits a solid second-place effort in the
Whirlaway S. to Achilles of Troy (Notebook). A winner at six furlongs in the
Aspirant S. by 13 1/4 lengths, the Steven Asmussen charge looks sharp and is a
likely top three contender. Channing Hill will ride.

DEVIL’S CONCIERGE (Wild Rush) has been working bullets for hot trainer
Richard Dutrow, who has won with five of his last 13 starters. The chestnut was
making a nice rally in the stretch of his last contest, but forced to steady,
finishing second but was given the win via disqualification. He owns a nice late
kick and is a threat to upset here under Eibar Coa.

TRAILING TWELVE (Five Star Day) will attempt to improve off a ninth-place
finish in the John Battaglia Memorial S. at Turfway Park last out. The Richard
Violette trainee won his only start over an off track and had success over the Big A’s inner track, winning two of three.
He could make a showing under Ramon Dominguez.
