She Tries to Make This Race Quick N Sweet

Winless in her first five starts, Quick N Sweet has been a regular visitor to the winner’s circle the last two years.

A 4-year-old daughter of Flying Continental, the California-bred has won six times since the beginning of 2002 and is on a roll entering tonight’s first race, a $5,000 claimer at 4 1/2 furlongs.

Owned and trained by Bill Corey, Quick N Sweet will try to make it four wins in a row with jockey Guillermo Gutierrez.

After losing as the 6-5 favorite on May 4 under a different jockey, the chestnut filly won by 1 1/2 lengths on May 20, then scored a two-length victory on June 22 and won again by 2 1/2 lengths on July 19.

The picks: 1. Quick N Sweet. 2. Wcr Rubys Fame. 3. Knight Raider. 4. Jus Jiggin. 5. Sell Short. 6. Good As Good Bye. 7. Throwin A Fit. 8. Hrh Princess Royal.

Four! Single Sell Short in the fifth, use Willies Smooth Dash, Good As Good Bye and Cash Received in the sixth, Lets Disco First, Throwin A Fit and Classic Tol in the seventh and Ashley Budd, Shell Ha and Hrh Princess Royal in the eighth.

Shots in the dark: Icey Gambler could fire fresh in the third. Kash To Splash stretches out to 870 yards in the fourth.
