Race 6 - Claiming - 6.0f on the Dirt. Purse: $26000 Class Rating: 78

FOR FILLIES AND MARES FOUR YEARS OLD AND UPWARD WHICH HAVE NEVER WON TWO RACES. WEIGHT, 124 LBS. CLAIMING PRICE $16,000, FOR EACH $1,750 TO $12,500 1 LB.

RECOMMENDED CHOICES
	# 3 LOVE GONE WILD 6/1
# 6 SILENT BEAUTY 6/1
# 1 BIG BELL 7/2

My pick for this race is LOVE GONE WILD. This pony has a terrific win percentage in dirt sprints. Looks decent against this group and should be one of the leaders. She has put up respectable figs under today's conditions and will probably fare well versus this group of animals. SILENT BEAUTY - Put up a strong speed rating in the most recent race. Can run another good one in this affair. The average Equibase class figure of 64 makes this entrant hard to beat. BIG BELL - Is worth looking at and may be a wager - strong speed figs (70 average) at today's distance and surface recently. Going in a dirt sprint race gives this mare a formidable shot.

Gulfstream Park - Race #3 - Post: 1:09pm - Maiden Claiming - 5.0 furlongs on the Dirt. Purse: $21,000 Class Rating: 68

Rating:

#5 WILDCAT STAR (ML=4/1)
#1 SONGTELLER (ML=12/1)
#7 KATZ THAT GAL (ML=4/1)
#9 NYSSA (ML=6/1)


WILDCAT STAR - I have to like this filly's chances at the shorter distance. Faced tougher last out at Gulfstream Park. Based on Equibase class ratings, this is a weaker group, so I will put this one on my list of choice plays. SONGTELLER - This filly likes to be near the lead. Today's event is a shorter distance and should enhance her chances. Duffy drops her down to this level. You don't need too much more handicapping info to think this thoroughbred will be one to beat at this level. I think that a sprinter coming off a layoff will usually run her best in the 3rd or 4th start back. KATZ THAT GAL - Ortiz is back for another race today after riding aboard this animal for the first ride on Dec 23rd and ought to know the ropes to this one a little better. This rider and conditioner have a fantastic winning pct when they are put together. Just missed hitting the board on Dec 23rd at Gulfstream Park. With decent odds right here, she has my interest. This mare's last speed fig notched on Dec 23rd is tops in last race speed figs. NYSSA - This jock and conditioner's animals have been generating a positive return on investment. This thoroughbred could be tough this time around, especially since Sutherland rode last time out and now should be acquainted with this one. Based on this mare's recent efforts, she should be aided by this shorter trip. This horse coming off a nice try in the last 30 days is a contender in my opinion.

Vulnerable Contenders: #4 THEODOROPOULOS (ML=3/1), #10 TEMERITY (ML=6/1),

THEODOROPOULOS - Can't play this morning-line favorite off the long layoff. This equine hasn't been close in either of her last couple of efforts. Will be tough for this mount to beat this bunch off of that last speed rating. Not likely to improve enough to run a figure close enough to today's class figure, so put her on the vulnerable competitors list. TEMERITY - This filly hasn't had any recent good results in short distance races. Tough to play her in this race. This thoroughbred hasn't shown much effort in the last two contests.

NBA | Knicks vs Hawks

Play on: Knicks +3 -110 at YouWager

1* NBA - Knicks/Hawks FREE Pick on Knicks +3
Friday's Free NBA Pick is on the New York Knicks as a 3-point road dog against the Atlanta Hawks. This feels like a game where the Hawks are going to maybe sit some guys in the front end of a back-to-back. Young seemed to tweak his ankle in Wednesday's 130-122 win at Dallas. However, he left the game and came back. He ended up playing 35 minutes. Now he's showing up as questionable for this game. So is Bogdan Bogdanovic, who played 33 minutes off the bench and was not injured. They are listing him with knee soreness.
So while the Knicks aren't exactly a team I'm looking to back right now, this is just too good a price to pass up on New York if the Hawks end up playing this short-handed. Even if Young and Bogdanovic both play, I like New York in this spot. Knicks are 29-16 ATS last 3 seasons in road games vs a team with a winning record and 13-3 ATS last 16 on the road vs a team that allows their opponents to shoot 46% or better from the field (Hawks are allowing 47.2% for the 2022-23 season). Bet the Knicks +3!

NBA | Heat vs Mavs

Play on: Heat -1 -110 at YouWager

Friday NBA Free play. My selection is on Miami minus the points over Dallas at 7:40 pm et on Friday.
It may seem a little strange to see the Mavericks catching points at home against the Heat (at the time of writing) but I believe the line is warranted. Miami is playing terrific basketball right now, having gone 9-4 SU and 8-4-1 ATS over its last 13 games. The Heat have knocked down 42, 45, 43 and 50 field goals over their last four contests while limiting the opposition to fewer than 40 made field goals in seven of their last 10 games overall. Meanwhile, the Mavs are really missing Christian Wood right now and check in playing awful defensive basketball, allowing 44, 49, 43 and 49 made field goals over their last four contests. Even Luka Doncic's exploits haven't been enough to lift them out of their doldrums and I expect them to stay down for at least one more game before their homestand resumes with a date with the Clippers on Sunday. Take Miami.

NBA | Pacers vs Nuggets

Play on: Nuggets -11 -105 at linepros

Jack's Free Pick Friday: Denver Nuggets -11
The Denver Nuggets have won eight consecutive games and are 15-2 SU in their last 17 games overall. They are playing as well as anyone in the NBA right now. I did fade them last time out successfully when they were on the 2nd of a back-to-back against the Timberwolves, but I like them to win in a blowout in this spot tonight.
The Indiana Pacers have been terrible without Tyrese Haliburton (20.2 PPG, 10.2 APG), one of the most underrated players in the NBA. They have gone 0-5 SU & 1-4 ATS in their last five games overall with the last four coming without Haliburton. They lost the last three in blowout fashion by 20 at OKC as 3.5-point dogs, by 13 at Milwaukee as 5-point dogs and by 18 at home to Memphis as 7.5-point dogs.
The Nuggets are 10-3 ATS in their last 13 games overall. Denver is 7-2 ATS in its last nine home games. The Nuggets are 6-1 ATS in their last seven games when playing on one day of rest. The Pacers are 1-4 ATS in their last five road games. Bet the Nuggets Friday.

Dave's Friday Free Play:
1* on Memphis Grizzlies -7
The Key: The Memphis Grizzlies have won 11 consecutive games and would have covered this 7-point spread 8 times during this streak. The Grizzlies are fully healthy while the Lakers are without Davis, Walker IV, Reaves and could be without LeBron James, who is questionable. Memphis is 12-1 ATS after failing to cover 4 or 5 of its last 6 games coming in. The Grizzlies are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 road games. The Lakers are 7-19-1 ATS in their last 27 games against a team with a winning record. Take Memphis.
