Carmouche rides Naive Melody
NY State Gaming Commission won’t permit Kent Desormeaux to ride at AQU today. Something to do with needing more info before processing his license application. No rider named yet for Naive Melody in East View.

Biggest win price Friday was $6.60. No surprise the pick-6 returned $302 for $1 for having all 6.
.@jockeyfranco caps a four-win day by guiding Moonlight Gal ($4.60) to victory in AQU finale, second straight winner Franco rode for George Weaver. The 4-win day vaults Franco to top of jockey standings with 24 wins followed by Lezcano (23) and Carmouche (22).

The claim of foul was disallowed. 1-4-2-5 is order of finish in AQU 2nd.
Favored Masmak ($3.60), a bit of a handful early, settles down enough to rally under Jose Gomez and take AQU 2nd. There is a trainer's objection against the winner for interference out of the gate.
