Al Cimaglia: Hawthorne Racecourse Late Pick 4 Analysis August 30, 2020 | By Al Cimaglia
Hawthorne Racecourse has a 16-race card scheduled for this evening. The 0.50 Late Pick 4 begins in Race 13. That sequence has a $25,000 guaranteed pool and it will be my focus.

The driver with the hottest hands on Saturday was Kyle Wilfong with five trips to the winner's circle. Conditioners Mike Brink, Steve Searle and Brett Wilfong led the trainers with two pictures each.

Comments and selections below are based on a fast track.

Race 13

2-Like A Captain (5/2)-Beaten chalk flattened out down the lane on 8/16. Seems to have turned the corner after a sick scratch on 7/19. Will look for more improvement for Team Wilfong in a wide-open affair.
4-Master Ken (4-1)-Team Leonard pupil is 1-8 and is a tough one to figure. Will use from this post, did pace the 2nd half in 55.3 coming home in 27.3 and the trip wasn't great. Like #2, will look for upswing to continue.
7-Incredible Bombay (12-1)-Was off almost the entire month of July and seems more determined in last 2 starts. Went a long mile in last start and did keep coming. Should offer a nice return and Warren may work a more efficient trip.
8-Da Peoples Panther (3-1)-Makes 2nd start for new barn and stayed on stride in last to finish 2nd by a noise. That was by far the best of 3 starts and was used a couple of times. Paced in 1.55 so could be over bet and it remains to be seen if minds manners again.
9-Heartland Dandy (15-1)-Makes 1st start after a sharp qualifier in 1.54.3 and raced close to the lead throughout. Post draw doesn't help chances but will improve the price. Will take a swing with a fresh horse who could surprise versus this crew.

Race 14

4-All Profit (9-1)-One of 2 Brink trainees (4-7) and this 3-year-old steps up after a nice win in a NW2. Will use here and leave the program chalk #9 off my ticket. Will look for more value as the morning line choice looks vulnerable.
7-Pick Me Upper (12-1)-Broke maiden in 5th try and had suffered from breaking issues but hopples appeared to help in last. Drew off by 9-lengths and was wrapped up. Maybe there is more in the tank and should be a solid price.
8-Rockyroad Aldo (7/2)-Drops out of straight Opens and lands in a spot to shine. Although this post will make it more of a challenge, 4-year-old looks like the one to beat.

Race 15

2-Pootie Cat (5-1)-Finished 3rd to #8 last week starting from post 7 and taking the long way around. Now gets the post edge and that should make some difference. But camera-shy filly is only 2-20 lifetime and 1-13 here, but should be in the hunt throughout.
8-Cassie Marie's T T (5/2)-Drew off by almost 4 lengths last week at this class from post 4 at odds of 1-2. This post draw will make it more difficult but did beat 6 from this crew in last. A major player with a smooth journey and should be bet hard again.

Race 16

1-Rollin Coal (6-1)-Often disappoints, whether it is a questionable drive or just lacking the will to cross the wire first. But this appears to be a simple recipe. If #2 is bet down Wilfong may look to get the top early. In that case Franco could get a 2-hole ride and be able to rally late.
2-It's Time For Fun (5/2)-Went off at 2/5 last week versus better and broke while following a 21-1 shot around the last turn. The longshot seemed to stall and Wilfong had a lot of horse and couldn't check him. Drops here and will probably look to get the top sooner. Usually minds manners but will likely be bet hard and offer little value.

Gulfstream Mandatory Rainbow 6 Picks with 1/ST INDEX Assistance August 30, 2020 | By Jeremy Plonk
Saturday’s mandatory payout in the Rainbow 6 at Gulfstream is part of a 4-stakes card that’s one of summer’s best in South Florida. Races 7-12 comprise the sequence and the kickoff leg is slated to begin around 3:06 pm ET with a carryover of $349,328. You can bet the Gulfstream Park full-card and Rainbow 6 on the 1/ST BET app.

Selections provided by the 1/ST INDEX measure each contender against the 10 leading factors for each race. The 1/ST BET app looks at 52 handicapping factors and more than 200,000 past races to determine its AI selections. You can use the automated handicapping factors, or create your own factor filters to incorporate angles you prefer.

1/ST handicapper Jeremy Plonk provides his human insights to the AI picks for the Gulfstream Park Rainbow 6. All contenders who received a 10% or higher chance from the 1/ST INDEX in each race were included.

Race 7 – claiming

1-Itsmyluckygirl (25% W // 40% P // 52% S)
6-Ima Daredevil (15% W // 32% P // 45% S)
5-Poseidon’s Princess (11% W // 29% P // 44% S)
12-Lemoncita (10% W // 18% P // 25% S)

Jeremy’s Take: This is a balanced race to start, so get some coverage. The algorithm and I agree on 1-6 at a minimum, but I’ll take 1-2-3-6-11.

Race 8 – Proud Man Stakes

7-Fulmini (21% W // 28% P // 42% S)
1-Hot Blooded (19% W // 47% P // 57% S)
3-Hail Rich Legacy (14% W // 30% P // 42% S)
6-Savatiano (14% W // 30% P // 53% S)

Jeremy’s Take: Man and machine agree on 1-7 at the top of this ticket. But the percentages show it’s balanced with only a 2-point spread on the top pair and only 7 points among the top four – the closest margins in the Rainbow 6. I’ll spread a bit in this race with a quartet, 1-7-8-9.

Race 9 – Susan’s Girl Stakes

5-Princess Secret (33% W // 55% P // 68% S)
6-Oh Deborah (22% W // 49% P // 73% S)
1-Freak (17% W // 35% P // 52% S)
3-Alluramore (11% W // 23% P // 31% S)

Jeremy’s Take: The 1/ST INDEX gives a surprising snub to 4-Go Jo Jo Go, 21-1 upset winner of the Desert Vixen. Perhaps the data agrees that lightning doesn’t strike twice? I’ll go 3-deep with 5-4-3.

Race 10 – Sharp Susan Stakes

5-Spanish Loveaffair (30% W // 44% P // 55% S)
4-Director’s Cut (14% W // 23% P // 40% S)
2-Can’t Buy Love (12% W // 25% P // 36% S)
1-Special Inclusion (10% W // 25% P // 29% S)
3-Beach Chick (10% W // 16% P // 34% S)

Jeremy’s Take: The 16-point spread from first to second is the widest in the Rainbow 6, and I’m in total agreement with the algorithm here. This is all about 5-Spanish Loveaffair. Single 5.

Race 11 – Affirmed Stakes

6-Breeze On Bye (32% W // 51% P // 58% S)
1-Gatsby (17% W // 33% P // 45% S)
4-Big Daddy Dave (12% W // 24% P // 37% S)
5-Seazan (12% W // 27% P // 42% S)

Jeremy’s Take: While many may be singling the favorite morning line favorite 6-Breeze On By, and the 15-point spread in this race is a solid endorsement of that, I’ll be using a trio of runners. Give 4-Big Daddy Dave an upset shot as the distance here at 7 furlongs could be the tripping point for the favorite. Use 4-6-1.

Race 12 – claiming

9-Duchossois (23% W // 43% P // 47% S)
7-Policy Option (17% W // 24% P // 37% S)
10-Atakan (13% W // 26% P // 37% S)
6-Time for Trouble (12% W // 24% P // 32% S)

Jeremy’s Take: With a 12-1 choice on the artificial intelligence top pick 9-Duchossois, you can’t argue with a price to close the card. My handicapping focus was on the top pair in the morning line, 6-Time for Trouble and 7-Policy Plan, a less creative decision. My plays amount to a $72 ticket if there are no scratches.

Jerry Shottenkirk: My Late Pick 4 Ticket Sunday at Saratoga August 30, 2020 | By Jerry Shottenkirk
Fillies and mares have the spotlight Sunday at Saratoga in the Grade 3 Shuvee, and the 1 1-8th-mile race on the main track could go many different ways.

But in the interest of staying away from a cost-prohibitive Late Pick 4 ticket, the list of contenders is trimmed down to three on this $72 suggested ticket.

Nonna Madeline, Another Broad and Royal Flag appear to be headed in the right direction in their career and should be able to mix it up nicely going the nine furlongs.

The Late Pick 4 runs during races 7-10, and the Shuvee is race nine on the card and the third in the sequence.

Here’s a look at the Late Pick 4 races:

Race 7 (4:40 p.m. ET, allowance optional claiming

SHORT POUR lacks consistency but her best races make you take notice. Saez on the front end is a plus and we know can happen under that circumstance.

BARREL OF DESTINY tired in his first one here but had won three straight going into that one. Does well playing the role of stalker.

PECATONICA was up in time two races back and then racing a credible third. She improved position against a slow pace. She could get a better scenario here.


Race 8 (5:14 p.m. ET, allowance)

INSIDE INFO ran fourth but dug in after losing the lead. Worth a look after that effort.

GANDY DANCING was runner-up in a decent race last out and can improve with experience.

HARRIS BAY Came off a second in a stakes race with a third here in his first in seven months. Has a decent closing move and likely will improve of his first off the layoff.

MIDNIGHT WHISKEY can get brave on the front end and doesn’t have many options other than going for the lead from the outside. Could carry his speed today, much like he did in a maiden win two races back.

Race 9 (5:46 p.m. ET, Gr. 3 Shuvee Stakes)

NONNA MADELINE was a clear winner in a restricted stakes race and steps into Grade 3 territory. She’s graded stakes-placed and can fire a decent shot on the front end of this one.

ANOTHER BROAD made a belated move for third and can be close to this pace. Well-connected mare is a legit player.

ROYAL FLAG won three straight and then was third in the G3 Molly Pitcher. Troublesome on or near the front end and usually has some closing punch.

Race 10 (6:18 p.m. ET, maiden special weights)

MODERN SCIENCE moved strongly for a narrow lead and then was caught late. Will be a battler in his second local start.

SOL DEL SUR rallied mildly in his first one and Mott runners usually improve after their initial appearance. Royally bred and a late threat.

MILLEAN made his first start and had a strong work last week. Braced for his first one and likely will be a player on the front end.

Here’s the $72 suggested ticket:
7) #1 Short Pour, #2 Barrel of Destiny, #4 Pecatonica, #12 Blue Atlas.
8) #3 Inside Info, #4 Gandy Dancing, #8 Harris Bay, #9 Midnight Whiskey.
9) #6 Nonna Madeline, #8 Another Broad, #9 Royal Flag.
10) #3 Modern Science, #5 Sol Del Sur, #6 Millean.
50-cent Late Pick 4: 1-2-4-12 with 3-4-8-9 with 6-8-9 with 3-5-6. ($72)

Brian Nadeau's Daily Picks Saratoga - Race #6


Picks
Notes


#5 Zonic
Slight class dropper was a fine 3rd off the Noda claim off the break, goes for a barn having a huge meet, and should get some speed to rally into; mows them down in the lane.


#7 Local Hero
Freakish Aqu winner laps this field if he runs back to that Feb. run, but he's been off since, and meets some other speed, not to mention he'll be overbet too; trying to beat on top.


#2 Summer Bourbon
Stalker has been running well against NYBs of late and was facing tons better for 40k the last time he tried open, and he should trip out nicely off the speed; would be no surprise.


Race Summary
That 4-1 ML seems fair on the pick, and Noda can do no wrong at the meet either, so play him to win and place, and to kick off the late Pk5 as well, since this is a deep race, and a win in the $10 range would add plenty of value to both sequences.


Saratoga - Race #8


Picks
Notes


#8 Harris Bay
Dangerous sort got the tightener out of the way last time, with a fast 3rd, should only move forward off that, and will not be favored; love his chances here.


#4 Gandy Dancing
Brown runner beat the pick last time when 2nd and certainly hits hard, but he had a recency edge that day, which is gone here, at a short price too; second-best.


#7 Three Jokers
Pace player will be in front of the top-2 and would be a threat if he shakes clear, but with other speed that's unlikely to happen; comes unglued in the lane.


Race Summary
You won't get rich on the 8 but that 3-1 ML seems fair, and with the 4 back you know he'll take all the money, so play the pick aggressively to win and place, and get some added value by keying him in the late Pk5/Pk4 as well, since he looks primed to throw down a lifetime best here.


Saratoga - Race #9


Picks
Notes


#7 Lucky Move
Stalker faced a nice one at this trip in the GII at Del Park, catches a group with plenty of speed, and will be a square price too; upset special.


#9 Royal Flag
Stalker was a meek 3rd in her stakes debut at Mth, so she needs to step up here, and the expected pace may help her do it; looms very large.


#6 Nonna Madeline
Pace presser dueled throughout and beat the 5 over the track/distance last time, but regression off that huge run may be coming; tread lightly.


Race Summary
The pace and the price should both be right with the 7, and she showed last time she's got some talent, so give her a look in all the slots, and especially the late Pk5/Pk4 as well, since she may fall through the wagering cracks, which means a win would add plenty of value to both sequences.

Brian W. Spencer's Daily Picks Mountaineer - Race #1


Picks
Notes


#4 Bungalow Flash
Finisher woke up going long in those last two runs when rained over to the main track, and he looks like the one to beat on the move to the turf.


#6 Princess Power
Has had 16 chances, so he's tough to take on top, but the two local turf tries were both pretty good, and he has now run two pretty good races in a row for this barn.


#1 Good Form
Turned in a decent sprint effort over the local lawn, and now he'll stretch back out around two turns. Not impossible here.


Race Summary
Bungalow Flash should be tough in this spot if he transfers his form to the turf, and I'll try to get Princess Power in the exacta with that guy.


Mountaineer - Race #3


Picks
Notes


#6 Twelve Rocks
Might offer a fair price on the step up to try winners today, and she's worth another look on the grass against the local company.


#5 Echo Alpha Six
Tactical player can get the right kind of trip, but he has struggled in the past at this kind of level, and he might be overbet here.


#9 Frost Proof
All or nothing speed player will try to go for it from a wide draw, and he did earn his maiden win over the local course last year.


Race Summary
Twelve Rocks didn't turn in big efforts in his two tries with better in Kentucky, but he found the local crew to his liking last time out when scoring a maiden win on the main.


Mountaineer - Race #7


Picks
Notes


#2 Comica
Short price looks like the most logical single on the card for the multi-race players, as she exits a useful comeback run going short and should get a really nice trip while meeting a suspect group.


#5 Prissy Sissy
Has some pace to use at a huge price here, and maybe she'll find the front end and accidentally stick around for an underneath piece today.


#4 Teatoe
Best stuff would give the top choice a run for her money, and she does have a little bit of upside in this second start off the layoff.


Race Summary
Comica and Teatoe probably shouldn't be as far apart on the tote board as the 4/5 and 5/1 morning line prices would indicate, but Comica has been in with better groups than this and meets almost nothing at all in here.

[Can'tPickAWinner]

Jerry Shottenkirk's Daily Picks Gulfstream Park - Race #6


Picks
Notes


#4 Reluctant Bride
Won two of four, including her last one, when she was very sharp in an allowance optional win; has been in two graded stakes and has what it takes to prevail here.


#5 Crumb Bun
Ran off to an easy win in a race that came off the turf and has taken two of her last three; finishes well.


#6 Don't Get Khozy
Ran on for second last time out and can be effective if the pace is fast; can come running.


Race Summary
Reluctant Bride has been sharp in half her races and the only times she was ineffective came when she was in graded events. Fits nicely and can secure her third win.


Gulfstream Park - Race #9


Picks
Notes


#11 Star Juancho
Was an easy winner last time and steps up in class; he's never been on turf but his pedigree suggests he should be able to handle it. Makes first off the claim by the Garoffalo stable.


#6 Marcelino
Came from just off a fast pace and was up in time going this distance last out; is a five-time winner over the course.


#4 I'm Cardinal
Set the pace and finished third in a race that came off the turf; easily won the last time he was on turf.


Race Summary
Star Juancho has some good races on his form and should be able to handle this level; gets his chance to go on grass.


Gulfstream Park - Race #10


Picks
Notes


#7 Lil Miss Hotshot
Has a win and five seconds in her last six and ran well in last time in what was her first local start; needed that race after six months off and can take them to the wire here.


#2 Midtown Rose
Tired in her last two and can get a good run along the inside; winless since December but has a shot at it.


#6 Faith N Hope
Ran on well for second at this level last time out and his connections have abandoned the turf for now; low percentage on wins but can hang on for a piece of it.


Race Summary
Lil Miss Hotshot just missed in her first local start after racing in the Mid-Atlantic tracks; doesn't have a bad race on her form since last October and fits nicely in this spot.

# 2 WINGS OF CHANGE 8/1




# 4 TROOPER JENNY 2/1




# 3 MOE'SANNIE 5/1




WINGS OF CHANGE gets the edge as the bet in here and is a decent value-based wager given the 8/1 line. Could best this group here, showing very good figures of late. With Malvaez aboard her, this filly will probably be able to break out early in here. Had one of the most respectable speed figures of this group of horses in this race in her last contest. TROOPER JENNY - Looks decent versus this group and will probably be one of the early speedsters. Could best this field based on the speed fig - 56 - of her last affair. MOE'SANNIE - Look for a very strong pace improvement from this horse who enters on Lasix today. The speed rating of 52 from her last contest looks respectable in here.

#1 TRICKY KID (ML=3/1)
#4 CLASSICAL ACE (ML=5/2)


TRICKY KID - Sneaky speed on this one. He'll probably be stalking thoroughbreds on the back side, then demolish them down the stretch. Have to make this horse a solid contender; he comes off a strong outing on August 15th. CLASSICAL ACE - This colt is in nice form, having run a nice race on Aug 15th, finishing third. Trainer, Nelson, has been deliberate with this colt off the layoff. Look for a solid effort today. Here is a true horse for the course. Loves the track here at Chippewa Downs.

Vulnerable Contenders: #6 KREWS PASS (ML=8/5), #2 ROCKIN CREEK (ML=5/1),

KREWS PASS - This gelding ran his top speed figure in some time on the dirt in a sprint race. There may be a performance bounce today. ROCKIN CREEK - This colt hasn't had any strong victories in short distance events in the last 60 days.

Have to go with #1 TRICKY KID on the win end if we get at least 7/5 odds

# 7 LIL MISS MOPPET 8/5




# 9 COOL STUFF 3/1




# 5 ODDSONDUSTYMILLER 10/1




I've got to go with LIL MISS MOPPET. Sound average Equibase Speed Figures in dirt sprint races make this pony a key contender. Lopez has a win percent of 20 over the last 30 days. Will probably come out solid - I have liked the way this filly has moved promptly to the lead recently. COOL STUFF - Solid average speed figures in dirt sprint races make this equine a contender. Make a note that this one runs with second time Lasix today. ODDSONDUSTYMILLER - She looks respectable in this slot and I expect will be on the front end or close at the midpoint. Should be given consideration - I like the numbers from the last race.

#4 MATCHLOCK (ML=5/1)
#5 CAESARTHERULER (ML=2/1)
#2 ITSALLABOUTYOU (ML=4/1)


MATCHLOCK - Have to make this gelding a serious competitor; he comes off a strong effort on Aug 8th. This jock/conditioner duo has been producing a very positive ROI, right at +62. Racing over a familiar track, where he has won multiple times before, I have to put this horse at the top of my list of choice plays. CAESARTHERULER - Ran last time out against much better horses at Prairie Meadows. The move down in class should suit him well. Gelding's last workout was second fastest of the day for the distance. This gelding's last speed fig is good enough to score here, I'll wager on him right back this time out. ITSALLABOUTYOU - This gelding is in fine form. Ran second on August 7th. Look at this pattern of improvement. 70/75/77 are the last 3 Equibase speed figures.

Vulnerable Contenders: #6 GO FOR JIM (ML=3/1), #3 BAGPIPES (ML=6/1),

GO FOR JIM - Speed kills. Plenty of early zip in this event compromises this animal's efforts. Mediocre speed figure last out at Prairie Meadows at 1 mile 70 yards. Don't think this less than sharp equine will improve too much in today's event. BAGPIPES - If today's affair shapes up right, all the front runners will force a ferocious speed battle early. Too bad this horse is one of those front runners. Tough to take this vulnerable equine at these odds after the finish position (fourth) in the last race. Garnered a disappointing speed rating in the last race in a $5,000 Claiming race on Aug 15th. Not likely to see an improved performance off of that figure.

MLB public betting, line movement, sharp money for August 30
The Atlanta Braves hope there's a need for high-fives Sunday as they look to avoid being swept by the Phillies. Most sportsbooks waited until Sunday morning to post a line on Game 3 of this series.

MLB betting odds are up and getting attention for a Sunday schedule of 16 games. Among the marquee matchups is the nightcap between the Atlanta Braves and Philadelphia Phillies, and the Cleveland Indians wrap up a weekend set against the St. Louis Cardinals.

Caesars sportsbooks provided insights on MLB opening lines and early line movement, sharp money and public betting for Sunday’s games.

MLB line movement

Philadelphia is on a five-game win streak, climbing back to .500 in the process at 14-14 and looking to sweep a three-game series at Atlanta. Most books had not posted the line for this game by late Saturday night. First pitch is 7:08 p.m. ET.

The Indians have won four in row to take the lead atop a tight AL Central, and they’ll go for a three-game sweep of the host Cardinals in a 2:15 p.m. ET meeting. Caesars books opened at Cleveland -122/St. Louis +112, and there was no line movement Saturday night.

The San Diego Padres and Colorado Rockies split the first two games of their four-game weekend set, with Colorado taking a 4-3 victory Saturday. San Diego aims to get back on track Sunday and opened a -141 favorite at Caesars, before moving to -149, with Colorado at +139.

MLB public betting

The Consensus indicated perfect two-way action on Indians-Cardinals by late Saturday night, with both teams landing 50 percent of picks. The Padres were drawing 62 percent of early Consensus play against the Rockies.

The Minnesota Twins were the most popular Consensus play by late Saturday night, taking 72 percent of picks against the host Detroit Tigers. Caesars has that line at Twins -196/Tigers +178, for a 1:10 p.m. ET start.

NBA public betting, line movement for August 30
Patrick Everson

Luka Doncic and the Mavericks meet Kawhi Leonard and the Clippers in Game 6 Sunday. The SuperBook at Westgate opened Los Angeles -10, moved to -11, then ticked back to -10.5.

NBA betting odds are up for a Sunday trifecta of playoff matchups, including a pair of first-round Game 6s that could lead to second-round berths. The Los Angeles Clippers aim to dispatch the Dallas Mavericks, and the Utah Jazz get their second shot at finishing off the Denver Nuggets.

The SuperBook at Westgate provided insights on NBA opening lines and early line movement, sharp money and public betting for Sunday’s matchups.

NBA line movement

The Clippers beat the daylights out of the Mavs in Tuesday’s Game 5, notching a 154-111 victory to take a 3-2 lead in the best-of-7 series. Dallas won’t have Kristaps Porzingis, who’s out the rest of the series with a knee injury. The SuperBook opened the Clippers -10, reached -11 Saturday morning, then ticked back to -10.5 for this 3:30 p.m. ET tipoff.

Denver nabbed a 117-107 Game 5 victory Tuesday to stay alive, pulling within 3-2 against Utah. For Game 6, the Jazz bounced between -2 and -2.5 since the line went up Friday night at The SuperBook, and the spread was -2.5 late Saturday night for an 8:30 p.m. ET start.

The Boston Celtics and Toronto Raptors open their second-round series in the day’s first game, a 1 p.m. ET meeting. Toronto opened -2.5 at The SuperBook, and that line was stable through Saturday night.

NBA public betting

SuperBook manager Reyna Hernandez said there was very light early interest in the Nuggets +2.5. The Consensus, often indicative of public play, shows the Jazz getting 66 percent of early picks against the Nuggets.

The Clippers are drawing 61 percent of early Consensus picks against the Mavericks, while the Raptors are landing 63 percent of early picks against the Celtics.

Jeff Siegel's Saratoga Analysis/Wagering Strategies - 8/30/20 August 30, 2020
Jeff Siegel’s Daily Analysis & Wagering Strategies
Saratoga
Sunday, August 30, 2020
*

Specifically designed for the rolling exotic player, Jeff Siegel’s “Daily Analysis and Wagering Strategies” isolates those horses that should be included in daily doubles, pick-3s, pick-4s, pick-5s, and the pick-6.
*
It is recommended that Jeff’s selections be used to augment the reader’s own personal handicapping, though excellent results can be achieved by applying the rolling exotic strategy specified by Jeff’s analysis. Jeff’s recommended plays are intended for players with a moderate budget; however, readers are encouraged to adjust Jeff’s wagering strategy to fit their preferred investment level.
*
*
Grade A=Highest degree of confidence.
Grade B=Solid Play.
Grade C=Least preferred, or pass.
Grade X=probable winner but odds are not likely to offer wagering value.
*
The selections are available every racing day after morning scratches.

*
Saratoga Analysis and Wagering Strategies:

RACE 1: Post 1:10 ET. Grade: C+
Use: 3-Sam and Sy; 8-What’s My Category

Forecast: The opener – a five and one-half furlong sprint for maiden state-bred 2-year-olds, has been transferred to the main track and should be treated with caution. Sam and Sy has done some good work in the a.m. for B. Cox (average stats with first-timers) and seems as a good as any in what amounts to an educated guessing game. A $75,000 OBS April sale purchase where he previewed in 10 1/5 seconds, the son of Speightster shows two recent local half-mile bullet works should have him on edge. What’s My Category flashed good speed before fading in his debut but with that race under his belt and this shortening in trip the son of Competitive Edge should stick a lot better. We’ll try to get by using just these two but if you can afford to spread deeper, go right ahead.
*
*
RACE 2: Post 1:44 ET. Grade: C
Use: 2-Blood Moon; 6-Fried Rice King

Forecast: This restricted (nw-2) $16,000 claiming main track router drew just six entrants, with Blood Moon listed as the 3/5 morning line favorite. Yes, he should win, but as odds-on favorites go, we’ve seen more dependable. The 3-year-old son of Malibu Moon is a “need the lead” type and probably will get it, although Mucho Bay may have something to say about that. The D. Gargan-trained colt has a clear advantage over his weak foes in the speed figure department but only when he gets his way. If he gets pressured early by ‘Bay, Fried Rice King, dropping drastically in class very much like Blue Moon, could come running late. The Bernardini gelding broke his maiden two runs back by more than seven lengths before displaying nothing in a starter’s allowance race, so this class drop is warranted. In a race that probably is best left alone, we’ll go two-deep in our rolling exotics but that’s about it.
*
*
RACE 3: Post 2:18 ET. Grade: B
Use: 4-No Mo’ Spending; 6-Elusive Site

Forecast: No Mo’ Spending has the benefit of two races under her belt and unless there’s a good thing among the first time starters the daughter of Uncle Mo should earn her diploma today in this extended sprint for maiden-special-weight juvenile fillies. Today’s extra furlong should promote her chances significantly after she earned a better than par speed figure when third in a tougher spot earlier this month. Elusive Site has some talent, though we suspect she’ll eventually do her best going long on grass. We’ll include her on a ticket or two as back-up while reserving the main punch for No Mo’ Spending.
*
*
RACE 4: Post 2:51 ET. Grade: C
Use: 3-Siding Spring; 5-Mills

Forecast: This race has been taken off the turf, extended to a mile and one-eighth, and will go with just five runners. Siding Spring is capable on dirt and should find himself on or near the lead throughout, while MTO entrant Mills is an old pro capable of winning as a stalker or a closer and in a small field should have every chance to tag the leaders. In a race that we’ll otherwise leave alone, both should be included in rolling exotic play.
*
*
RACE 5: Post 3:24 ET. Grade: C+
Use: 1a-Traffic Lane; 5-Red Ghost; 13-Split Then Double; 15-Cease and Desist

Forecast: This maiden juvenile sprint race for fillies has been transferred from turf to the main track. Red Ghost, from the W. Ward barn, has three local works that have been slow and easy but at Keeneland last month the daughter of Ghostzapper registered a bullet half mile gate drill in :46 1/5 seconds to indicate she has plenty of speed and ability. She should be cranked up and ready to roll. Split then Double, Cease and Desist and Traffic Lane draw in from the also-eligible list and hail from top stables, so they’re probably worth including somewhere on your ticket as well.
*
*
RACE 6: Post 3:57 ET. Grade: C
Use: 2-Summer Bourbon; 3-O Shea Can U See; 5-Zinbuce; 7-Local Hero

Forecast: Here’s a messy $12,500 claimer that requires a significant spread in rolling exotic play. We’ll go four-deep but you should use as many as your budget allows. Summer Bourbon plummets from $25,000 after three consecutive substandard efforts and may return to life against this group. The veteran gelding likes to settle in the second flight and produce a late kick and given that type of trip today he should have every chance. O Shea Can U See exits the same race as Summer Bourbon and is another that should appreciate this easier assignment. He’s a deep closer with a very good lifetime record at this six and one-half furlong trip (four wins in 10 starts) so with some help up front he should be heard from late. Zonic is another that likes to produce one late run and though he usually settles for minor awards the son of Ghostzapper hails from a barn that’s been red hot all meeting so we’ll list him a legit contender. Local Hero is worth tossing in somewhere as well; he’s been away since February and is waiver protected and returns after earning a career top speed figure in a runway win at the Big A that he may (or, may not) be able duplicate under these conditions.
*
*
RACE 7: Post 4:32 ET. Grade: B-
Use: 4-Pecatonica; 12-Blue Atlas

Forecast: Blue Atlas is drawn outside but is good enough to win this allowance optional claimer for fillies and mares if she can negotiate a decent trip. She’s capable of winning on the lead or from off the pace, so the options are there for J. Ortiz to play it by ear depending upon the race flow. Pecatonica, third in the same race Blue Atlas finished second in last month, had a rough trip and should have been a lot closer. A two-time winner (in three starts) over the local lawn, the Temple City filly goes for the Clement-Rosario team and seems the one to fear most. Both should be included in rolling exotic play.
*
*
RACE 8: Post 5:07 ET. Grade: B
Use: 4-Gandy Dancing; 8-Harris Bay

Forecast: Harris Bay may have been a tad rusty when a troubled third in his first outing since January four weeks ago in similar state-bred first-level allowance sprint and seems very likely to produce a significant forward move today. Most comfortable as a late-running sprinter, the sophomore son of Carpe Diem retains J. Alvarado and with good racing luck will make his presence felt in the final furlong. Gandy Dancing, second in the same race ‘Bay exits, will help ensure a decent pace and if he can shake loose early he may get brave and keep on going. The lightly-raced son of Flatter should continue to improve with experience and is properly listed as the 2-1 morning line favorite. Both should be included in you rolling exotics.
*
*
RACE 9: Post 5:46 ET. Grade: B-
Use: 3-Letruska; 5-Golden Award; 6-Nonna Madeline

Forecast: Letruska stretches out and tries an easier assignment after pressing a blazing pace and then paying the price when weakening to be fifth in the Ballerina S.-G1 earlier this month. She’s clearly the controlling speed in this nine furlong Grade-3 event and if she clears without undue pressure (as projected by our pace scenario) the daughter of Super may roll all the way to the wire. Nonna Madeline and Golden Award, first and second in the listed Summer Colony S. over this track and distance in early August, are dangerous right back despite the step up in class to graded stakes company. Both prefer to stalk and pounce and based strictly on speed figures are both competitive with our top pick. We’ll give Letruska the edge but include all three in rolling exotic play.
*
*
RACE 10: Post 6:16 ET. Grade: C+
Use: 3-Modern Science; 4-Shirelle

Forecast: Modern Science has the benefit of a couple of runs on his belt and the improving son of Galileo should be set to graduate unless there’s a better than average first-timer in the field. Shirelle has looked decent in a series of grass works for C. Brown and may be the most dangerous of the newcomers. In what amounts to a grass grab bag, these are the two we’ll be using in our rolling exotics.
