Gulfstream Park Picks

Race 1: Gachasmigas...has had three tries at this level and will be the one to catch. Concert Pianist was pulled up last time and given a month off...taking drop..will be tough if ready... Centella is shortening up for second try against this level..gets top jock for this spot  and will sit close and make run.


Race 2: Johnson City Kid by Lemondrop Kid... second time out..will improve. Nileator was off slow in first and made run.. Lanerie needs to be mentally sharp.. Tapkee ran super race last out and this well bred colt will take money and then some..will be the one to beat. Muhaawer will improve in second start.



Race 3: Lying Eyes will be put close to the lead in this spot and will get jump on pack with Saez in irons. Rovavevi has been consistent in last three tries on turf..one to beat. Starship Cosmo have in third spot but can easily win this race. Improved last out on turf..will be coming when the running begins.




Race 4:  Very tough race.... Mucho Mas Mucho will get a breather at this level..two back ran super race at this distance. Sycamore Lane has been consistent in  last three...the son of Artie Schiller needs to be forwardly place off the pace and then pounce. Taghleeb has done nothing wrong in last four and turf has become a best bud. Empire Knight has been ultra consistent since going to Florida..winning fave last three... will be there for a piece.




Race 5; It is time for Thomas Albertrani to end this slump and Biz The Nurse could do the trick...first time stateside..first time lasix..off the board once in eleven lifetime starts..gets Castellano..the moon may be aligned to end this skid for Albertrani. Wings of Fortune is coming off layoff and will be fresh for this start...Jonrah hasn't been seen since December and has two race win streak going...steady drills...Sharp Omar is an interesting horse in this field..won by a neck about a month ago...will break from outside and the young bug boy needs to get him involve early without  a lot to do.




Race 6:  BlueGrass Singer tried to stretch out last two with Derby dreams playing love song in connections head.. back to where he belongs and will be tough..I hope the 8/1 morning line is still there. Ready For Rye was beaten by a nice horse last time and if Barbados was in this field he would be clearly second choice and vying for favoritism at post time with Daredevil. Ready For Rye will try to take it to them form the opening bell. Daredevil is coming off long break and going against horses that has been getting foundation all season. He will take money and more money. I am passing on top spot.




Race 7: Seeking Alpha is a firster who will be prominently place from the start. He has been going well in the morning and will be firing on cylinders. Wisecracker was the choice last for me against Khozan. He will take the money at the window for many and he maybe that good but will be too short a price for me. Ulysees is the other Chad Brown in the field. They paid big bucks for the son of Street Cry...gets lasix..will be coming for a piece. Unbridled Juan ran well first time out and gets lasix for second effort..wouldn't surprise me if this one took it all.





Race 8: The angle play is in effect in this race... Centauro Star ran well, beaten by four in debut back in December. Since then he was given a few months off..got gelded for this return. The son of Indian Charlie will be ready set go from the opening bell. Tilted Hero has been working well and adds lasix for the debut..Lopez and Plesa has made great music together over the years and he will be going from the one hole. Chipit is a son of Tapit who hails from the Pletcher barn...gets Castellano.




Race 9: I love three horses in this race and anyone could win. For placement purposes I am putting Night Prowler on top just because of whom he beat last time out. Croninthebarbarian is just a lovely race horse...he just leaves it on the track every time. Divisidero could be a freak and return to win after breaking maiden. I love the top and bottom side of this horse..son of Kitten's Joy out of a Lemon Drop Kid mare.. broke maiden going the same distance as today..could be a special one.





Race 10: East Hall will love the cut back in distance...last out was left with too much to do and the top two were just too good. Saez who is an intelligent rider who understands the Gulfstream surface and need to get this one in the race earlier...never been out of the money at this distance.  Wicked Strong coming off major break and the powerful son of Hard Spun looked incredible schooling the other day..Maragh rode Main Sequence  lovely after long break and he will have Wicked Strong ready to act wickedly turning for home. Private Zone will be sent to the lead and play catch me if you can. I think they will catch him but not before he gives those fave bettors a thrill. I never been a Honor Code fan and I am passing here again....include underneath.




Race 11: I hope 12/1 will be there for Piloting in this spot. He has been away for a while and has been working well for return...two back ran against the likes of C. Zee...tried turf before taking break..will love the return back to dirt..and lures Castellano. Manhattan Johnnie is coming off break..beaten fave after breaking maiden in grade two Nashua..has taken money for all four career starts..will be a price today...take a shot. Talon's Of Tuscany broke maiden then stretched out...he faltered on the lead and now cuts back in distance...will be forwardly place and the price will be right.




Race 12: Infinite Sky storms out of the Graham Motion barn for debut..Prado climbs aboard this charge and the son of Sky Mesa may do the trick from start to finish. Dujac will take mo money mo money and Chad Brown and Castellano are the reasons behind that plus the horse has done some nice drills in the mornings. Sky Fire from the Casse yard comes into this spot with lasix and has had some purposeful drills in the mornings...could be live.
