Here’s our watch list runners for today. New Atlas will be a play for me, but I’ll be looking at significant scratches, board, and the paddock before wading in with the others.

New Atlas R3 GP – gets Irad, comes off terrible trip, but marooned in 13 post today

Data Dependent R6 GP – Brown/Castellano will vie for favoritism but fits well here. Motion’s Thewayiam at the rail looms a threat

Old watcher J.S. Choice goes in the 9th at Gulfstream, but hasn’t run in a while and catches a pretty salty field. I’ll likely watch this time as he needed a Race last spring as well.

Irish Freedom – R8 Santa Anita – game effort with a wide trip last time … but the water is deeper here … a piece with a better trip.
