In depth
Verdict
MY BOY LENNY makes most appeal having returned a wide-margin winner for Darien Rodriguez’ in-form yard on his latest start. He recorded a decent speed figure in the process and should once again have the measure of the placed horses, Divine Ambition and Ludington. Town Classic scored in a lower grade over track and trip before narrowly beaten over the extended mile here and is preferred to stablemate Sacramento Q while Create Again has been competing in stakes races without success and makes more appeal than General Paddy back down in class today.
