Race 9: D’ambrosio (#6)
- Never had a fair chance last time when he raced 5-wide around the far turn over a track that was favoring runners with inside position.
- Ran a competitive speed figure against tougher company on Jan. 18 in his first start for the Rudy Rodriguez barn.
- The rider switch to leading jockey Manny Franco suggests that he’s expected to put forth a better effort here.
