The $60,000 Pan Zareta Stakes January 10 at Fair Grounds is the lone stakes race on the card, featuring a compact field of six fillies and mares scheduled for the five and a half furlong turf sprint.
Good Deed, the 4/5 morning line favorite for trainer Steve Margolis, has been ultra-consistent winning 8 of 15 starts in her career including 3 of her last 5. Good Deed returned from over a nine month layoff December 14 to vanquish allowance foes at Fair Grounds where she has excelled. Good Deed will attempt to avenge a second place finish in last year’s Pan Zareta. She will break from post four under jockey Brian Hernandez.
4/1 second choice Starship Duchess is another consistent performer, earning 6 wins in 14 lifetime starts for earnings of $150,716. Starship Duchess returned to winning form in her last start, beating allowance foes November 28 to snap a three race losing streak. Trained by Louie Roussell, Starship Duchess will be ridden by E.T. Baird.
Angie’s Prim Lady (9/2) has won three of her last five starts for trainer Tom Amoss, and has hit the board in 10 of 14 career starts for earnings of $133,288. The four year-old daughter of With Distinction will break from post six under jockey James Graham.
