By We give a shout-out today to owner and Handicap Wizard user, Vito Cipriano, whose horse, #3 Hatch, came in second today in the 2nd race at Aqueduct, a $50k Allowance at 6 1/2 f on the dirt for three-year-olds and up. Going off at 18-1, Hatch had theoretical odds of 6-1 because of decent SPD and E1 and E2 win estimates of 15.5%, 15.1% and 23.6%. The horse also had a fairly strong COMP value of 23.7% (projecting almost 3-1 strength). In the race, Hatch made a five-wide move wide around the far turn and then came up well on the inside behind #4 Beaver State to finish second. The horse paid $12.00 for the place.
