Riggins makes his first start for Casie Coleman in race 5. Here's a horse that appeared to be any kind of beast at age two and, although something of a disappointment, still acquitted himself fairly well and showed flashes of that same brilliance at age 3. Previously raced out of Ray Schnittker's barn, he passed through the January 19 Meadowlands sale for $220,000 with Bulletproof Enterprises (a whole other story) making the final bid. Schnittker put two impressive qualifiers into him pre-sale, the most recent on January 8, so he is a bit stale going into this one. The flip side is that CC has taken a bit of time to evaluate and tinker before unveiling the "new" Riggins. He is just the type that may produce some eye-popping performances in the hands of Ms. Coleman. I for one will be an interested observer tomorrow night.
