It Could Be a Classic Case

Closing in on $200,000 in career earnings, Classic Sassy Chic will try for her ninth lifetime victory in tonight’s seventh, a $14,150 allowance at 350 yards.

Owned by Jackie and Rod MacPherson and trained by Felix Gonzalez, the 3-year-old daughter of A Classic Dash has made $191,175 while finishing in the top three in 15 of 17 starts. She will be favored against seven rivals as she aims for her third win of 2003.

She will also be attempting to end a three-race losing streak. She has been beaten at 1-2, 17-10 and 5-2 since her last win on July 25. Carlos Bautista will ride.

Point Break is among those looking to upset the favorite. The gelded son of Dash Thru Traffic, owned and trained by Adan Farias, is stepping up after beating $16,000 claimers on Oct. 5.

The picks: 1. Riggsmarolle. 2. Best Of Change. 3. Adriannas Strawfly. 4. Tikis French Kiss. 5. Boo Master. 6. Ta Wee. 7. Point Break. 8. Makin Fast Cash. 9. Get Um Injun.

Four! Riggsmarolle and Point Given in the first, Best Of Change and Flight Of Love in the second, Dasani, Adriannas Strawfly and Chippawa Chick in the third and Tikis French Kiss in the fourth.

Shots in the dark: Bobby Drifter can contend with a quick takeoff in the fifth. Credit Vixen gets jockey Joe Badilla Jr. for her local debut in the seventh.
