2nd-AQU, $60k, Msw, 2yo, 1 1/8m, 12:49 p.m. EDT
Nine juvenile colts and geldings go the rare-for-their-age nine-furlong trip in this Friday spot at Aqueduct, and all eyes will be on first-time starter MARCONI (Tapit&log=">Tapit). Bridlewood Farm and Coolmore partnered to go to $2 million for the gray, a half-brother to 2013 GI Breeders' Cup Classic hero Mucho Macho Man (Macho Uno). The colt has been working steadily at Belmont for Todd Pletcher, capping off his preparations with a half-mile gate move in ::48 4/5 (9/74) Nov. 10. Pletcher will also be represented by $800,000 Fasig-Tipton Saratoga buy Biblical (Tapit&log=">Tapit), who was third behind subsequent GII Nashua S. winner Avery Island (Street Sense) Sept. 30 at Belmont.
