AQUEDUCT THOROUGHBRED RACING TIPSHEET – Sunday, Nov 16, 2025

Powered by ATSstats.com – Where Smart Bettors Get the Edge

 

Today’s Aqueduct card features a strong mix of maidens, allowances, and two competitive turf stakes. Several races project honest to fast early pace setups, which sets up beautifully for late-running closers and tactical stalkers. Identifying race shape is half the battle, and today’s ticket leans into that advantage.


RACE 1 – MAIDEN CLAIMING – $43,000 – 1 Mile Dirt – 12:10 PM

PICK HORSE & JOCKEY Notes
WIN (1) Momentum Files – K. Carmouche (32%) Expected lone early speed. If he clears uncontested, he wires this group.
PLACE (4) Quiet Moon – S. Civaci (28%) Stalker who sits right behind Momentum Files and gets first run.
SHOW (3) Dr. Insel – M. Franco (28%) Strong late kick, will rally if pace gets hot.
JOKER (5) Party With Smarty – J. Rodriguez Has closing ability and could blow up the trifecta board at 10-1.
