‘Vista Looks for a Change

Kelia Vista, who is winless in six starts since arriving in the United States, will try to end the losing streak in tonight’s eighth, a $13,250 allowance race at 350 yards.

Owned by breeder Mauro Eli Zaborowsky and trained by Juan Aleman, the 4-year-old Signed To Fly mare has finished third twice since leaving her native Brazil.

Scheduled to break from the rail against four opponents tonight, Kelia Vista will have a new rider. Hector Cuevas will be the fifth different jockey she has had, replacing Ramon Sanchez.

Completing the field are Royalclassic Express, who hasn’t run since Jan. 17, Magic And Rhythm, First Royal Flirt and Daytona Apollo Mrl, who is winless in five races since coming from Brazil.

The picks: 1. Hot Chicadee. 2. Miss Jenni Perry. 3. Sey Fireproof. 4. Czech This Chick. 5. Wylackie Mariah. 6. Bonnie Pancho. 7. Nashua’s Asset. 8. Daytona Apollo Mrl. 9. Indigodash.

Four! Hot Chicadee and Treasured Memo in the first, Bad Act and Miss Jenni Perry in the second, Jest Aminute and Sey Fireproof in the third and Czech This Chick, Willie Flowin Fast and Es Posible in the fourth.

Shots in the dark: Golden Cleats can threaten with a better takeoff in his second start in the fifth. Rail Skimmer stretches out to 870 yards for trainer Chuck Treece in the seventh.

Post time: 6:30 p.m.
