9th: 44th Shuvee (G3), F&M-4+, 9f (DD)

This is a very good running of the Shuvee with what should be a zippy pace and live prices involved including Trombetta's hot working Puerto Rican mystery filly Lucky Stride. I tabbed Lucky Move (6/1-3-1 at 9f) for Beat Byk today because her Obeah two back can win this and she's the only authentic off the pace candidate..
