RACE #8 - AQUEDUCT - 4:29 PM EASTERN POST
7.0 FURLONGS DIRT FOUR YEARS OLD AND UPWARD $16,000.00 CLAIMING $27,000.00 PURSE
#9 MINERALOGY
#1 ADIRONDACK DREAM
#5 HONOR AND PLEASURE
#3 HAMPTONS HOLIDAY
#9 MINERALOGY, the overall speed leader in this claiming field sprinting at today's "specialized distance" of 7.0 furlongs on the dirt, drops in class (-7), and has produced a quartet of "POWER RUNS" in his last five outings, facing better company in each of those races, than he will face in this field today. #1 ADIRONDACK DREAM also drops in class (-3), and comes off a "POWER RUN PLACE" finish facing better company (+3) in his last start, missing a "Circle Trip" in that race by less than a length.

#5 TIMELESS BEAUTY (ML=8/5)
#6 KAREN'S GEM (ML=9/2)
TIMELESS BEAUTY - This filly is in fine physical condition, having run a nice race on January 25th, finishing second. Ran a winning race Jan 25th, but just couldn't haul in the winner. KAREN'S GEM - Entered a $40,000 Maiden Claiming race at Aqueduct last time around the track and raced on a muddy track finishing sixth. Expect better right here in this race.
Vulnerable Contenders: #2 MY ROSE OF SAVANNA (ML=3/1), #3 GIA MICHAEL (ML=7/2), #1 BLISSFUL BREEZE (ML=8/1),
MY ROSE OF SAVANNA - Hasn't been coming close at all lately. GIA MICHAEL - I'm foreseeing a lackluster try out of her in today's event. BLISSFUL BREEZE - Difficult to bet on any horse to turn things around if there is no reward to taking the chance.
Top HatGUEST COMMENTARY: Winston - TIMELESS BEAUTY - I always scan for the animal that is tops in earnings per start. If she meets my fundamentals I make a play.
STRAIGHT WAGERS:
Play #5 TIMELESS BEAUTY to win if you can get odds of 9/5 or more

RECOMMENDED CHOICES
The Walker Group Picks
# 8 DEBUTANT GIRL 15/1
# 7 ARTY'SBOURBONGIRL 5/1
# 2 SILENT NOTION 5/2
DEBUTANT GIRL is the top bet in this affair especially at a long price. Sound average Equibase speed figs in dirt sprint races make this animal a contender. Batista has an excellent return on investment over the past 30 days (+3) which should probably help players with this selection. She has been running soundly and the Speed Figures are among the strongest in this group. ARTY'SBOURBONGIRL - Looks respectable to be close to the front end at the first call. Has the looks of a lucrative play. SILENT NOTION - This mare looks good in this race since Brown has a solid win percent with horses going this distance. Ran a strong last race.

Rating: Golden DollarGolden DollarGolden DollarGolden Dollar
#4 HONOR GUARD (ML=8/1)
HONOR GUARD - You should give this first time starter consideration in your speculating today This colt has posted superior workout numbers compared to these thoroughbreds race times. First-timer has morning works over the Santa Anita strip, which is always a plus. I always like to see a horse getting Lasix for the 1st time. Bob Baffert adds it on this one today. I have all the info you need right here. Dam stats for first timers, winners 100 percent of the time.
Vulnerable Contenders: #6 DRAFT PICK (ML=2/1), #1 SOLTERO (ML=5/2), #3 AQUILA (ML=3/1),
DRAFT PICK - Earned a mediocre speed figure last out in a Maiden Special race on December 14th. Unlikely to see an improved performance off of that number. SOLTERO - M/L odds of 5/2 make this horse a pass by my standards. AQUILA - Recorded a substandard speed figure last race out in a Maiden Special race on Jan 19th. Not likely to see an improved performance off of that figure.
Top HatGUEST COMMENTARY: Winston - HONOR GUARD - Bob Baffert is fantastic with a first timer. Terrific winning pct.
STRAIGHT WAGERS:
Go with #4 HONOR GUARD on top if we're getting at least 1/1 odds

RECOMMENDED CHOICES
The Walker Group Picks
# 1 CITY STORM 6/1
# 3 NO PHONE JOE 8/1
# 2 MAGIC MANGUS 9/2
I've got to go with CITY STORM. Could best this group based on the speed fig - 82 - of his last race. The average class rating alone makes this one a solid choice. He has been running admirably and the Equibase Speed Figures are among the most competitive in this group. NO PHONE JOE - Looks decent for the conditions of this race today, showing solid figs in dirt sprint races recently. MAGIC MANGUS - Could best this group of animals based on the speed fig - 72 - of his last effort. Has earned solid Equibase Speed Figures in dirt sprint races in the past.
