#2 STILL KRZ
#4 WESTWOOD
#1 SPARTIATIS
#3 TOTAL TAP
#2 STILL KRZ qualifies as a TrackMaster PLUS "PowerPony," takes a class drop (-7), has excellent early speed abilities for this sprint, and has produced "POWER RUN PERFORMANCES" in five straight starts, hitting the board in three of those "adventures." #4 WESTWOOD, the morning line favorite, is the overall pace profile leader, and has hit the board in each of his last five outings, including a pair of "POWER RUN WINS" being embedded in this recent streak of racing consistency. Jockey Trevor McCarthy was in his irons for that last win, 25 days ago here at "The Big-A," which produced a +350% return on investment in the process, and is back today here in Ozone Park for his 2nd ride, gunning for back-to-back "Circle Trips!"

The Walker Group Picks
# 4 JOY DRIVE 8/5
# 5 PROLETARIAT 7/2
# 3 IMASUPERSTAR 6/1
JOY DRIVE looks to be a quite good contender. Exhibits the look of a profitable play, averaging a solid 92 speed rating which is one of the top in this group. Ought to be given a shot in this contest if only for the solid speed figure earned in the last race. With a nice class rating average of 98, has one of the top class advantages in this group of horses. PROLETARIAT - Has to be considered against this field displaying respectable figures as of late and an average Equibase Speed Figure of 87 under similar conditions. Has to be considered here on the basis of the figures in the speed department alone. IMASUPERSTAR - Prominent in earnings per start at the distance/surface in this field of horses. Win percentage under similar conditions may be the key for this gelding.

#6 MY LADY MUNNINGS (ML=4/1)
#4 SOMETHING BETTER (ML=7/2)
#2 JAX (ML=8/1)
MY LADY MUNNINGS - I'm counting on this horse to run a good one today. SOMETHING BETTER - This jockey/conditioner duo has been producing a very positive ROI, right at +50. Ranks highest in (EPS) earnings per start. A dominant try in this event will add to that total. JAX - Ran last time out against a better field at Penn National. The move down the ladder based on class rating points should suit her well. I have to like this filly's winning probability at the shorter trip. When the field turns for home, she will have a good shot. Has much speed, and the bullring will work in her favor.
Vulnerable Contenders: #7 COWGIRL CUT (ML=3/1), #5 OH SO QUICK (ML=5/1),
COWGIRL CUT - Tough to support any racer that runs as well as she did and then lays up and doesn't workout at all. OH SO QUICK - Finished fourth in her most recent race with a pedestrian speed fig. When I look at today's Equibase class figure, it would take an improved performance to score after that in this group.
Top HatGUEST COMMENTARY: The Brain - SOMETHING BETTER - Based on my skill, a front runner positioned in an inner post on a bullring in a race less than 1 mile gets extra points in my book. Should be in a good spot moving down the stretch.
STRAIGHT WAGERS:
Go with #6 MY LADY MUNNINGS on top if we're getting at least 7/2 odds

# 4 DANAS BEST (AUS) 9/5
# 1 PRESS BARON (GB) 2/1
# 3 GURNICK 4/1
I back DANAS BEST (AUS) here. Is a solid contender based on numbers garnered as of late under today's conditions. Martinez has one of the strongest jock ROI's on the grounds, returning to wagerers +13 percent. Has to be considered - I like the figures from the last race. PRESS BARON (GB) - Always seems to be close up at the wire. Will probably go to the front end and could never look back. GURNICK - Should best this group of animals here, showing strong figures of late. Could best this group of horses based on the speed figure - 99 - of his last outing.

Gulfstream Park - Race #8 - Post: 4:06pm - Optional Claiming - 8.0 furlongs on the Dirt. Purse: $51,000 Class Rating: 92
Rating: Golden DollarGolden DollarGolden DollarGolden Dollar
#7 AMALUNA (ML=8/1)
#2 WHAT ABOUT TONIGHT (ML=3/1)
#3 RAGING TOWN (ML=7/2)
AMALUNA - This jock and trainer have a profitable return on investment when they partner up. This mare usually does her best running late. Look for her back early in the race and closing strongly on the tiring speed horses. This mare notched a strong speed rating of 89 in her last clash. That speed fig should be high enough to triumph this time around. A thoroughbred coming back this rapidly after a sharp contest is a good sign. This mare is very familiar with the winner's circle at Gulfstream Park. I expect a repeat trip in this event. WHAT ABOUT TONIGHT - After the affair aboard this animal on January 26th, the rider is going to be in touch with the filly much better. Navarro brings her back again. I recommend you stay with this hot filly. The addition of blinkers usually means that a trainer wants a pony to show more zip or to keep her attention focused. RAGING TOWN - This filly is very reliable, frequently finishing in the money. The jockey/trainer duo of Ortiz and Tagg has a strong ROI together. 69-82-88 are last 3 Equibase speed figs. Improving each time out is something she should do again right here.
Vulnerable Contenders: #1 THREE ILLUSIONS (ML=5/2), #4 LONGSTOCKING (ML=4/1), #5 SILENCER (ML=6/1),
THREE ILLUSIONS - I don't normally play a morning-line favorite that hasn't been to the track in the last three weeks. LONGSTOCKING - Tough to put any money on this mare on the front end. Likes to end up on the board though. SILENCER - Even though victorious in last, didn't finish the way you'd like to see when stepping up to face stiffer competition.

Free Selection from Jim Feist
Jim Feist's Comp Pick, Thursday, February 15, 2017
02/15 06:05 PM PT / 9:05 PM ET
NBA (503) LOS ANGELES LAKERS VS (504) MINNESOTA TIMBERWOLVES
Take: (504) MINNESOTA TIMBERWOLVES
Reason: Your free play for Thursday, February 15, 2018 is in the NBA scheduled contest between the LA Lakers and the Minnesota T'Wolves. Lakers had to play yesterday and they gave up 139 points to New Orleans. They should be good and tired here tonight as they head to Minnesota. It's always tough in the 2nd of a back-to-back spot, but especially after a run and gun game the night before. Play Minnesota.
