Frank Carulli's Daily Picks

Turf Paradise - Race #4
Picks Notes
#2 FEEL FREE (2-1) ‘For Sale’ sign goes up on productive but lightly-raced 7yo after recent vet scratch.
#1 SALLY STANFORD (8-1) Showed marked improvement despite another trouble line, draws rail.
#4 HEAVENLY VIOLET (5-1) Circled the field 6-wide, couldn’t reach the winning favorite.
Race Summary FEEL FREE, unraced until age 6, towers over the field if she breaks alertly and duplicates her maiden romp at this distance. Another red flag went up when she was a vet scratch April 10. It’s an all-or-nothing win bet and straight exactas of 2-1 and 2-4.
Turf Paradise - Race #5
Picks Notes
#1 FED GRANT (5-1) Focused on winning 4-wide rally with blinks on, value remains on switch to turf.
#3 INCREDIBLE MO (5-2) Earned top speed fig in photo-finish setback but was eased in follow-up try.
#4 IMISSBAYMEADOWS (6-1) Landed minor awards in 2 of his last 3 on turf at monster odds.
Race Summary FED GRANT benefited from a rapid pace set by the favorite, but he sustained a 4-wide rally, nonetheless, to spring an 11-1 maiden-breaking upset. He wore blinkers for the first time and can sit an ideal stalking trip from the rail for his first try on the lawn. Bet to win and place.
Turf Paradise - Race #7
Picks Notes
#10 PRIME EXAMPLE (4-1) ‘Leads’ by example but can survey the scene from post 10 in speedy field.
#4 DARNQUICK (4-1) Beaten odds=on favorite in last pair but adapted well to chase mode.
#6 ECONOMICAL (6-1) Drops below claim level, can add value to gimmick wager tickets.
Race Summary Class-dropping speed types abound in this 5-1/2F sprint. PRIME EXAMPLE set a rapid pace and got caught by the favorite at 6F off a seven-month layoff. Like him on the cutback in distance with an outside post draw. Bet to win and place.
