Santa Anita's Money plays

Race 1: Signature Cat will be hammered at the window and rightfully so..this bunch is weak and he should lay it down against these. Cheap O Charlie is another dropper who has been gelded since last out.. Roper has run well against better company..wouldn't surprise me.


Race 2:  Pray Hard has been in good against some nice ones..got picture taken last out..may have found the comfort zone. Love Forever been away for a while..working forwardly for start..Talamo hops aboard...could be ready. Industry Leader ran hard last out to just miss..improving numbers and fits well.


Race 3: Cyrus Alexander has taken money and burned them right before the wire..this time around he may not take the money because of the presence of Secreto Primero who could be the best of the bunch.. Ghost Of Navigator I am willing to give another chance to at least hit the board..


Race 4: In this race I am searching for a price play and Currency Exchange exits a strong race in my opinon..should love the lawn...Battle Of Evermore comes out of that strong race on January 10th..beaten a length and three quarters by two nice horses...9/5 could be a gift. Go Trumpy Go is a son of War Front..the turf won't be an issue.. needs a clean start for a dividend.


Race 5: We all know where the money is going in this spot so why not try to look elsewhere... Rock Shandy has done nothing wrong since first start other that meeting some stiff competition..today the competition is once again stiff but the son of Lemon Drop Kid will appreciate everything about the spot especially if given something to run at. Dortmund is a stud but I am always trying to take down studs. Firing Line draws "Big Money Mike" in the irons and may turn the tables on Dortmund.


Race 6: Whine For Wine is getting blinkers and should turn the tables on Pulling G who will probably be the post time fave. Logan's Moon broke maiden last out and could come back against winners to make noise.


Race 7:Dynamic Sky should have won last out but ride wasn't great..horse was blocked behind horses and jock basically canter to wire...will produce better next time.  Majestic Harbor has had one try on turf and he finished third... new rider (Money Mike) could wake this one up.. Power Foot will be better this time around and will get a piece.


Race 8: Hoppertunity is a strong, powerful son of Any Given Saturday and any horse can win on any given Saturday..I think he is as good and maybe better than California Chrome who converted me last year and Shared Belief whose chances were destroyed at the gate last time out. Looking forward to this one.


Race 9: Arethusa should be a nice price coming off a break after campaigning against good company for an extended period of time. Will love the green if ready to fire. Demonica is a beauty of consistency and will be strong again. The Wandafu gets Lasix after massive break for debut...maybe ready for closeup.. Dakota Kid broke maiden last out..could battle for a piece.

Aqueduct Plays Of The Day

Race 1: Texting is cutting back in distance and taking major drop.. two back is better than the rest.. Jacapo is consistent in last four tries..second time against winners and should improve from third place finish.. Golden Luck needs a good break and a good ride..any moisture in track will help this one.


Race 2: I am going with the firster in this spot. Woodford Pine draws the talented Carmouche in the irons and runs for top trainer Chad Brown. The horse gets Lasix and has steady works. Stone Crab.. Rudy knows how to get them ready..coming off month break..Ortiz is back..Pierce's Prize disappoint last out as fave..took a time out and could be ready to put it together.


Race 3: Shayjolie came back in Affectionately and ran out of gas in the lane..may have needed that one..should be ready to rumble. Penwith got nailed last out at the wire..will once again be tough. Moment In Dixie gets Alvarado who vacated Holiday Jewel for this spot.. steady growth in last three.


Race 4: I am taking the horses that were beaten by Read The Mirage in their last.. Prince Raja steps up a tab..should be best.. To Erin Again was beaten by seven lengths  in last but should improve..Qui C'est Moi.. slight drop..appreciate the distance.


Race 5: Go On Darling comes off freshener..broke maiden as fave by neck.. Zenstone could bust out of there for hot barn and keep on going.. I just Wanna Win could be best of all..needs a settling ride for best effort.


Race 6: Ekhlass gets Lasix and will take them wire to wire with the bug boy.. King Rontos needs to grow up and put it all together. Carry The Beat is getting Lasix for second start..will improve


Race 7: Run A Dubb Dubb will cut the corner under Rice and do the reggae waltz to the wire..Bileaps And Bounds is the one to beat..stronger races than the top pick.. Ah Gaga is coming off win..mild freshener..could be ready.


Race 8: This is a tough race or Via Strata could make a mockery of it.. Via Strata was impressive last out and will love the stretch out even better. Pebble Beach Baby is a consistent runner.. Checkupfromzneckup will get better second time against winners. Lucky Nancy E draws Carmouche..cuts back in distance.. Wraith is a runner I always love..Box all five and enjoy.


Race 9: Last of the day is wide open..don't care much for those who already had a chance...Our Posse gets Lasix..Jara will put the son of Posse on the lead and turn them away.. Fortunate Sky looks ready for a starring roll.. Louie Luck should get a piece.

Santa Anita's Plays

Race 1: The first of the day offers up runners who just doesn't like to win..you can put all their names  in a bag and pull one to find the winner... I settled on Nothing To Hide with the back class.. My Develish Diva dropping to level she competes at well... It's Aine beat my Develish Diva two back and is worth a look.


Race 2: Alston first drop to this level showed improvement.. expect further progression... Townminster... is yet to finish in the money after four starts but he is stretching out... could take them all the way. Lone Warrior has done nothing in two starts.. willing to give another try against this bunch.


Race 3: Commute working well for his debut..love the barn who knows how to get them ready.. Distorted Humor in family lines works for me. Z Besha.. Baffert.. Espinoza.. Zayat.. familiar. Gimmie Da Lute another firster out of Baffert's barn that has been working well. Midnight Lute/Casino Gold..will be ready to fire.


Race 4: Shy Rosa wasn't shy in 2014...six starts and four in the money finishes...coming off healthy break..should fire. Denotation could blow up this entire field and win for fun..main threat to top choice. Bow Tie Belle..cutting back..won last out..top jock sticks.


Race 5: Brescat.. don't know much about this one but I know about Stevens and Mcanally..enough for me. Koukle.. throwing out last race... should relish this spot.. Lady Of The Nile attracts Elvis which is a major upgrade and jocks do make a difference...Jerry may do the trick.


Race 6: I am leaving Big Macher out of the top three spots.. Distinctiv Passion is breaking from the rail and will have the services of "Money Mike" in the irons..he will get every ounce out of this one who has only one bad try in last ten starts.. Secret Circle has burn money ..did not find winners' circle all last year..I hope bettors bail so I can inhale the profits that will come.. Wild Dude ran super last out..will come after them in the stretch but will have to catch the top choice who is working lights out.


Race 7: Za Approval was disappointing last out at Gulfstream Park. He came out in stretch under Joel Rosario but failed to catch the top three. Mark Casse made trip last time to see run at Gulfstream Park..he was disappointed but that will change come Saturday. Baccelo goes back to turf after last two tries on dirt..will appreciate the surface switch.. Kaigun the other Casse runner has been doing well and I have appreciated this horse since the Churchill Downs run when he got blocked in race against Wise Dan. Will come running in the lane.


Race 8: I am expecting the Casse barn to have a big day on Saturday. I have been waiting on Miss Mandate to put it all together. Loved her at Churchill..nothing... Delta Princess is a throwout..came back in last to finish nice second.. Talamo sticks on the Pioneerof The Nile filly..today is money time... Callback is a major player and could be the one that will defeat Miss Mandate.. second last out in grade two company..blinkers off... Garcia/Baffert... Cha-Ching! Glory gets the services of Mike Smith.. the money man will take over the reins of this maiden winner who finished second to Callback two back.. the Tapit filly will only get better with the distance..


Race 9: Solomon Northup won't be held in maiden captivity very long..expect this one to find his way home...  Eckersley will be firing strikes with Lasix and the extra ground... Steam Play needs to sit off pace and make one run..

Gulfstream Park Plays Of The Day

                                                                  Gulfstream Park

Race 1. Not in love with any of these so I am shopping for a price...Palace Gate has burned more money than a spoiled rich kid..hoping today is the day I can make a profit...Golden Rivet is coming off month break and should be prime to gallop..Vasco Da Gama should explore a spot in the top 3 because I needed someone for the third slot

Race 2. Leverage Loan has done best work on dirt..shortening up from last..should repeat...Jack Wagon is coming off break..I like playing horses coming off extended breaks in these conditions.. Master Achievement deserves a shot against this bunch and Lezcano hops aboard for the trip.


Race 3. Battle Red is going against a bunch that he should handle with ease..I am weary of the many tries though... C'mon Boys will love the lawn and Rosario takes the call... Rimbaud is trying turf second time..last effort wasn't bad... Albertrani and Maragh are deadly.


Race 4. I love this race.. Pletcher's charges will steal all the money at the window..Blame and Overcontrol will be deserving faves but there is no fun doing things the easy way.. I am trying to beat them with Gorgeous Bird who broke maiden last out and Morgans Harbour who is coming off a fourth place place finish in the Spectacular Bid.

Race 5. Media Savvy will be best if that one is able to draw in... Get Air Lex switches to Rosario.. shortens up.. will be live.. La Moskette is bred for speed top and bottom.. should enjoy turf.

Race 6. Once again Pletcher's firsters will take the bank roll.. Porch Pound and Khozan both look ready to roll and I look forward to beating them with another firster from the McLaughlin barn... Wisecracker is out of Distorted Humor and I love playing Distorted Humor first time out..horse has been working well and trainer knows how to get them ready.

Race 7. Hutcheson... If Bluegrass Singer goes in this spot he will be my top play.. I love him in this spot and like him in the Holy Bull... the horse is going for three in a row..he is the real deal.... Barbados will be tough if Bluegrass Singer stays or leave.. He will also be going for three in a row and will be a hard nut to defeat off that spectacular win in the Spectacular Bid... Dom The Bomb..love the name..should not be ignored and I will watch board and how this one looks on the track.

Race 8. Sweetest Chant.. Can I get 5/1 on Ol' Fashion gal right now..love this filly.. Casse barn is one of the tops anywhere.. Lezcano is that quiet giant who doesn't get the ink he should..masterful turf rider... Miss Temple City is going for three in a row and the Masterful Motion knows how to stir the winning ocean.. Quality Rocks is coming off break..finished 10th in Breeder's Cup race..should be ready off the break.

Race 9. Holy Bull.. I am looking for an upset winner in this spot and First Down is the one who is talking to me.. he should rebound off the fourth place finish against Blofeld.. Albetrani can get them ready to roll and Maragh climbs aboard..a combination that has paid off for me.. I like Bluegrass Singer but wish he would go in Hutcheson.. Frosted is the star of the field.. he could blow this field away or lay an egg.. the son of Tapit who has never been off the board in three lifetime starts will once again be consistent.

Race 10. Forward Gal.. Seduire will be strong in this spot but I will try to beat her with Birdatthewire who ran game race at Churchill last time out..took time off..have been working well for return.. tough spot to come back to.. Ekati Phaeton ran super last out and should step forward once again.. By The Moon will enjoy everything about this setup.. should come running.

Race 11 Kitten Joy... Dr No who had miserable trip last out will be Dr. Yes when the wire approaches.. will run monster race if given a clean trip...Croninthebarbarian.. is very consistent..draws Castellano... Dubai Sky rising numbers..warriors heart..will be a force once more.

Aqueduct Plays Of The Day

Price Play: Irish Sweepstakes in Race 7


Race 1. I am not in love with any of these so I am going with the first time starter Cement Job and playing Norm The Giant and Igotthediscoinme

Race 2. Be Bullish will be bullish amongst this bunch... Doc Almond is rising and will continue to do good work.. Hurry Up Alan will be produce late by Jara.

Race 3. Regal Minster and Defecit Hawk are rightfully the morning line faves. Both will be tough in this state bred company.. I find Drama King intriguing.. if that one can settle then he can take the biggest slice.

Race 4. Ekhlas get Lasix.. will need to be tucked in and settle..love the barn..top pick.. King Rontos had a few tries..today maybe the day.. Jackson P gets front end rider Lopez..nice break from last... should be ready to cook.

Race 5. Spring Court is very competitive at this level.. goes back to mile.. in form horse... Moonluck will be the one to beat.. the numbers lean in his favor.. Big Town is at the right level and should get a piece.

Race 6. Giantinthemoonlite will love the stretch out.. 5/2 is a gift if you get it.. will romp.. Adams Note has had many tries against this level..keep on ticket.. Sea Raven will be a player with this bunch.

Race 7. I am going price shopping in this spot.. Irish Sweepstakes will enjoy the extra distance.. Wriath was game last out..had three weeks off and should be ready to fire.. Lucky Nancy get Carmouche..she will be coming for a piece.

Race 8. Percussion will sit a great trip..will scamper away when they turn for home.. Classic Sense looks like the danger here to Percussion..consistent traveler over the track.. Wealth To Me will take money and will be a factor with steady numbers.

Race 9. Mop Head looks like the logical play in this spot.. should get the top money.. Dr. Disco coming off break.. if ready should fire.. Tummel's last three starts before break were all in the money.. break should only make this one stronger.

Breeders' Cup

The championship is upon us once again and this year's edition is filled with competitive races throughout the entire card. The classic is missing some big name stars that horse racing fans thought would be there at the end, but it will bring Shared Belief and California Chrome to the same party, along with Tonalist and few others who are trying to become the name that is rolled off tongues after the dust clears on Saturday. The two year old crop this years is a feast of goodness, and even with the defection of American Pharoah, the field is still a very strong one with a potential for big money to be made. If you love Pletcher's charges, then enjoy the race and your fifty cents return, but if you want to make some money dig deep and find the dollars lurking in the past performance.

In the Juvenile fillies I was looking forward to playing Cavorting back after her disappointing effort last out at Belmont Park. Her defection opened the door for me to look deep in the lines. Angela Renee will be the people's choice, but I will be looking away from that one and looking for a price that has been blazing on the track since her last win.

The filly and mare sprint will be a great race. It will feature Leigh Court who ran a beautiful race at Keeneland and Artemis Agrotera who has been special on the east coast all summer. Sweet Reason is cutting back after finishing behind Untapable and Stonetastic has been working well.

The  Xpressbet Sprint will feature Rich Tapestry who was lights out the best in last start. Secret Circle will try to turn the table on that one and Palace trained by Linda Rice will once again try to become the top dog. The pace will be hot and sweet and someone will come running to snatch victory.

Selections:

Race 1:  War Alert
              Faithful Creek
              Tizcano


Race 2: Michief Clem
             Acceptance
             Truely Quick


Race 3: Stars Above Me
             Richies Party Girl
             Ageless


Race 4: Conquest Eclipse came off small break to finish a strong second behind Angela Renee who I am throwing out of this race. She will sit a lovely trip under Nakatani and pounce when the running begins. Cristina's Journey looked great winning Pocahantas and has been working lights out since. She will be tough. Danette is an interesting horse..numbers are improving..still a maiden but when it comes to the two year olds they all can grow up in a Hollywood minute....Majestic Presence...had issues last time.. cleaner trip could pay big dividends.

Picks: Conquest Eclipse/Cristina's Journey/Danette/Majestic Presence

Race 5: Dank finished fifth behind The Fugue and Magician last out..none of those types are in this field.. Just The Judge maybe the best of all..last time out at Woodbine won by half length...love the numbers that this one is boasting...Abaco should get a piece...consistent hard knocker..Shug don't run just to run..in with a good chance...Secret Gesture with Smullen in the irons has been consistent this year..should make some noise.

Picks: Dank/Just The Judge/Abaco/Secret Gesture


Race 6: I am looking forward to seeing this race...Better Lucky is the upset chance to set my bank roll right..Castellano jumps back aboard for the ride and she will come thundering down the center of the track...Leigh Court is going very well right now..took a break and came back with a win then followed that up with another at Keeneland...will be right there... Artemis Agrotera is all business..three wins this year out of four starts..only loss was beyond seven furlongs...will once again be there.. Sweet Reasons finished behind super filly Untapable last time out and will be very fit off that effort..she can stir the drink in the stretch for Gyarmati.

Picks: Better Lucky/Leigh Court/Artemis Agrotera/Sweet Reason

Race 7: If you love No Nay Never then bet and enjoy but I am looking for something sweet to keep my bankroll flowing... Bobby's Kitten is cutting back and Joel Rosario lands here..the horse will have the necessary foundation and will be strong in the lane.. Silentio has been a consistent runner...will be shortening up for this effort..should be tough...Casper Netscher..I love the Euros when they travel stateside to do damage on turf..they are just better and while this one only has one win to boast from five starts the magic lives within the numbers...No Nay Never is just too tough to throw out but is vulnerable in this spot.

Picks: Bobby's Kitten/Silentio/Casper Netscher/No Nay Never

Race 8: I must admit  that when American Pharoah scratched I felt some disappointment because I wanted to see him go against the Pletcher's boys but also he assured me of being over bet..Now I am hoping Pletcher's boys will command all the money leaving the opportunity for the tote board to explode... Mr. Z is adding blinkers..getting the money jockey Mike smith..Lukas knows how to get them ready...I am all in on this one... The Great War has raced seven times already with four in the money finishes..dirt first time..stretching out first time..War Front babies can run on anything...love the trainer..the jock is top class.. Blue Dancer is undefeated and while he will be stretching out for the first time the Bluegrass colt will not be troubled at all.... Carpe Diem/Daredevil could be the exacta when they cross the wire..if they finished one/two I won't be surprised..I played against them last out and will do so again.

Picks: Mr.Z/ The Great War/Blue Dancer/Carpe Diem/Daredevil

Race 9 : I was all set to make Magician my top play then the news came...I am all in with Euros in this spot..this is what they do and they do it very well... Telescope..Moore is in the irons..First time Lasix..will get nice cover trip along the inside and then make it rain when Moore shakes the reins... Brown Panther has been in the money six times this year with three wins..last time won at a mile and three quarters..will be dead fit and will gobble them up in the stretch... Flintshire maybe the class of the entire field.. company line is star studded... the four year old could just toy with them in the stretch for fun... I am throwing in Graham Motion Main Sequence because Motion stirred the ocean at Saratoga this year when everything he touched turned to gold.

Picks: Telescope/Brown Panther/Flintshire/Main Sequence

Race 10:  Call me crazy but I am in love with Bourbon Courage... the Lion Heart runner has found new life since becoming a sprinter.. two wins at distance and will be finishing under the strong urging of the talented Ricardo Santana.... Rich Tapestry was a beast last time out and will be the one to beat in this spot... Secret Circle has been the money for every start of career.. consistent..gritty.. nothing but high praise for the son of Eddington... wouldn't surprise me if he was taking the biggest chunk of the pie... Wind Fire..I just can't leave the Euros out...

Picks: Bourbon Courage/Rich Tapestry/Secret Circle/Wind Fire

Race 11: Toronado has been keeping great company across the pond...seven starts at the distance with three wins and three second place finishes... Mustajeeb has been doing lovely work this year.. after a lengthy break he has come back to fire four in the money finishes this year.. will be traveling sweetly under the guidance of Smullen... Anodin..the trainer and jockey knows how to get it done in this race.. never turn your back on familiarity in horse racing... horse hasn't won this year but boast six out of nine in the money effort at this level.. will be traveling through the lane under Peslier.. Veda...is worth a shot...

Picks: Toronado/Mustajeeb/Anodin/Veda

Race 12: All year I have been trying to beat California Chrome and I am batting lousy in that effort... I like the odds that I may get on this one..Shared Belief will command all the attention from the herding racing fans and that is how the gambler in me like it..I am throwing out Shared Belief and going with California Chrome to win three year old and  horse of the year title..I like Tonalist to do some good work under California Chrome.. Zivo.. had one clunker this year..too consistent to by pass... Candy Boy has been in my ears all week because a buddy of mine thinks he will win the whole thing..I am not truly convinced that he can take them all down but he will be coming strongly in the lane under Corey Nakatani...

Picks: California Chrome/Tonalist/Zivo/Candy Boy

Will Bayern Get The Distance In The Travers?

The Travers is an exciting race on paper. It features the Belmont Stakes winner, the Haskell winner, the winner of the Jim Dandy, and also boast the second place finisher in the Kentucky Derby. Tonalist who won the Belmont Stakes arrives in the Travers field after finishing second to Wicked Strong in the Jim Dandy. Tonalist who will once again be ridden by Joel Rosario, is a strong and powerful son of Tapit. The Colt ran very well in the Jim Dandy, which serves as a prep for the Travers. A win in the Travers will put him in the conversation comfortably for three year old horse of the year. Wicked Strong, the winner of the Jim Dandy displayed a powerful run that brought back memories of his victory in the Wood Memorial. The son of Hard Spun showed of his ability in the Jim Dandy. He had backers who believed that he would win the Jim Dandy and he didn't disappoint his supporters.
Bayern comes into the Travers after taken the field wire to wire in the Haskell invitational. Jockey, Martin Garcia, was a passenger out for a Sunday stroll on the Jersey shore. He set lovely fractions throughout the race, and when the field kicked for home, he took them a apart like a well skilled surgeon. What type of setup will the son of Offlee Wild get? If he is allowed to walk the track once more, then all the other runners will be fighting for second money.

Commanding Curve was my Derby horse and since that big effort behind California Chrome he hasn't showed anything that makes me think he belongs with the group. He came back in the Jim Dandy after his disappointing run in the Belmont Stakes to finish fourth in the Jim Dandy. He will need to improve significantly to dance with the big boys when the real running starts. I am still not giving up on the son of Master Command. If the pace is right then he may be coming fast as a light.

V.E. Day is an interesting horse in the field. He is the winner of three in a row and boast wins on turf and dirt. The son of English Channel is trained by Jimmy Jerkens, the same hands that handles Wicked Strong. V.E. Day deserves more than just a courtesy look after his win in the Curlin Stakes last month. He glided around the track in last place and then made an easy move into contention turning for home. He was produced by the jock on the outside and at that point I thought he was going to canter home, but he kept on leaning in for his run down the stretch, making his win much closer than it needed to be. If he was straight, he would have galloped for fun in the lane. He will be a player when the smoke clears late Saturday in upstate New York.

Race 9 on the card is the Ballston Spa Stakes and it features some nice ladies who will strut their stuff. The race features three horses that I like and all the others are window dressing hoping to cash a valuable stake place voucher. The six year old mare Abaco disappointed in her last start and is yet to win a race this year. The daughter of Giant's Causeway is due and today maybe the right setup.
Filimbi is going great guns right now and deservingly will be the favorite in this field. The four year old daughter of Mizzen Mast has won two in a row and will be locked and ready  when they swing for home. Dayatthespa came back from a break and was ready to fire. She ran a great race and was beaten by Filimbi whom she will encounter once more. She is a hard trying mare who will give her best all the time.

The King's Bishop is race ten on the card, and sprinters will be thundering around the track at a blistering pace. The Big Beast will take money and I really hope he does. Winner of his last two and in the money in four career starts. Noble Moon is a horse I am loving to spring a upset in this race. He has been away since finishing sixth in the Wood Memorial. I expect Ortiz to sit off  Wildcat Red and others before unleashing this one down the stretch. Wildcat Red credentials speaks for itself and after finishing third to Bayern in the Haskell he should be ready to roll at distance that he will love tremendously. Coup De Grace rolls into the race off a nice win in the Amsterdam. The son of Tapit should get the same setup like his last race and he will be tough to crack.

I am looking forward to the showdown in the Ballerina which will go off has race eleven. Better Lucky went to dirt in the shine Again stakes and took it like she has been doing it her entire racing career. The Ghostzapper mare mowed them down in the stretch and wanted more when the race was all over. My Miss Aurelia who also competed in the Shine Again will come to the party looking for revenge and Willet is an interesting lady in this field. Willet came back to racing in July and has had one win and a second place finish. The time away has done some good for the mare and she will be a dangerous participant in this field.


Race 1: Three Alarm Fire is coming off a second place finish on July 11... the colt will improve with Rosario in the irons and the cut back will help the son of Pyro to set the opening race today on fire.


Race 2: Face The Music made a strong move in the lane in his debut ..he ran into a Motion horse that was ready to fire...he should get a nice setup and I expect the Stormy Atlantic colt to break his maiden stylishly.


Race 3: My theme for the first three races at Saratoga today is Joel Rosario. I am expecting the talented jockey to sweep the first three races on the card and his mount Poliziotto will improve second time out off a layoff.  Chad Brown can get them to run first off a layoff but I think he is even more lethal second off the break. Rosario will put this one down for the drive and turn a profit on my two dollars.


Race 4: Today's Agenda is coming off a second place finish to Competitive Edge who needs no introduction. The colt is trained by Anthony Dutrow and his Saratoga's summer is no longer a secret... Today's Agenda will be locked and loaded.


Race 5: Palace Dreams has done lovely work in state bred and open company. I am banking on the filly to continue her consistent way.


Race 6: Is anyone hotter than Mcllroy on the links right now? Mcllroy the horse was very hot until he tackled optional allowance company..he went back to straight allowance in his last and did nice work.  There are few others who will offer some stiff competition in this spot but this one is worth a shot.


Race 7: Divided Attention is coming off a break and if she s ready she will smack this field and have them paying attention. The daughter of AP Indy did damage against strong company before taking a break. I don't care for much in this race so she is the play ready or not.


Race 8: Sometimes I think handicappers can make this process more difficult than it needs to be. Look no further for your winner in this race.... North Slope will romp.


Race 13: Ear D' Rhythm is my long shot play of the day... coming off a win and I think the winning feeling will continue against this bunch..expect to hear dancehall beats playing in the stretch when this one hit the wire.


Race 14: Thurgood broke his maiden against state bred and is coming back against state bred once more... the Marshall will lay down the law with Leparoux who is trying to forget this Saratoga meet.
