Enjoy The Moment Might Get the Chance

Enjoy The Moment, the beaten favorite in the Pocahontas Handicap last month, will try for her third win of 2003 in tonight’s eighth, a $16,550 allowance at 350 yards.

Owned and trained by Patricia Visscher, Enjoy The Moment, a 4-year-old Chicks Beduino filly, hopped at the start in the Pocahontas and had to settle for second, beaten by a head by First Rate Choice.

A winner at tonight’s distance Oct. 24, the California-bred will break from post three in the field of six and will be ridden by Eddie Garcia.

The field also includes Yak Ity Yak Go, Super Carrie Dee, Royalclassic Express, Aubrey Ren and Emanuele Toll.

Trained by Paul Jones for the Fakri Family Ltd. Partnership, Emanuele Toll has won three of eight this year but is winless in her last four. Most recently, she was second to Inthetwinkleofaneye on Dec. 7.

The picks: 1. Hey Dale. 2. Fairly Fasty. 3. Solferino. 4. Point Given. 5. Rakin Leaves. 6. Shadow Book. 7. Humphreys Begone. 8. Enjoy The Moment. 9. Traffic Attraction.

Four! Shadow Book and Synner Or Saint in the sixth, Short Sale, Humphreys Begone and Rail Skimmer in the seventh, Enjoy The Moment in the eighth and A Sharper Bon, Traffic Attraction, My Eye On Tommy and Carol Day in the ninth.

Shots in the dark: The Candi Kid drops for his Los Alamitos debut in the second. Vallarita Chick could surprise with a better takeoff in the third.
