Day 32 HORSE DU JOUR

The Thursday program is headlined by a steeplechase event, the $150,000 New York Turf Writers' Cup (G1) going 2 3/8 miles over the hurdles. The nightcap is a conditioned claimer for older fillies and mares going a mile and a sixteenth on the inner turf.

#10 FAIRYTALE STORY is returning off a lengthy layoff for trainer Phil Serpe, a conditioner who has had a tough meet but is notoriously solid with runners off the bench. This particular horse has done very well off the bench in the past as both of her career wins have come when fresh. She has been working decently for the return and should be in position to inherit the lead when the pace backs up in this affair.

DAY 32 HORSE DU JOUR: Race 10, #10 FAIRYTALE STORY

DAY 31 HORSE DU JOUR: Blackfoot Trail missed by half a head at 9-1.

Good luck!
