Brian Nadeau's Daily Picks Finger Lakes - Race #2


Picks
Notes


#1 Justice of War
Class riser looked good beating N2L foes last time with ease, and a fast figure too, and sure doesn't meet much for a N3L; call right back.


#2 Tenency
Dropper didn't fire for 10k, so this group makes sense, but that was the third drop in a row, so his form seems very suspect; tread lightly.


#5 Cool Quartet
Deep closer just missed at the level and has been running well of late, and with some speed signed on, he'll pass a bunch late; exotics appeal.


Race Summary
There's no chance you see that 9-2 ML on the pick, but even 3-1 or so seems fair on a runner who is as fast, if not faster, than anyone here on figures, and enters off a win, which is never a bad sign either, so play him aggressively to win and place, and make sure to use him in the early Pk4 as well, as he won't have to improve much, if at all, to double up.


Finger Lakes - Race #4


Picks
Notes


#2 Time Travel
MSW dropper chased then was last-of-6 on debut, but this is a seismic plunge, she has a ton of upside, and will be a square price too, in a race there for the taking; upset special.


#9 Truly Funny
The gal to beat has run 2nd in three in a row, at odds-on every time too, so sure, she's the most likely winner, but we've said that before, and she's now 17-0-8-1; second-best again.


#8 Pam Dorth Andiamo
Lightly raced runner was 4th to the chalk last time, but with just three lifetime starts she has plenty of room for improvement, and her tactical speed should play well here too; using.


Race Summary
That 20-1 ML would be a huge overlay on the 2, as she takes the biggest drop in racing and should only improve off that debut, so as long as she's 10-1 or so you can give her a look in all the slots, and especially to end the early Pk4 as well, as you're allowed to think outside the box in a race like this, and she could be the right fresh new face, and a win would completely blow up the sequence too.


Finger Lakes - Race #8


Picks
Notes


#7 Beg to Differ
Price player should be close to the chalk early, has some upside off just six starts, and a repeat of that 2nd two-back would put her in the mix here; call to post the mild surprise.


#2 Smooth Operation
The one to catch and beat will be loose, but he's pulled that trip twice in a row and gave it up easily, so at false odds, there's no reason to think things chance here; trying to beat.


#4 Mac's Revolution
Class riser has won three in a row and will get the acid test here, but he's in the mix on figures, and won't be too far out of it early either, though this 4-1 seems light; mixed signals.


Race Summary
The price will be right on the 7, even though he's eligible to bounce back off his last dud, and trip out too, off a favorite that seems tough to trust, so give him a look in all the slots, and especially the Pk5, and late Pk4 as well, since he could 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 #5


Picks
Notes


#9 Babeswildweekend
Very rare career maiden pick, as this one makes his 22nd career start, but the overall form stacks up well with a bullet work in tow in advance of this. Vulnerable favorites?


#7 Golden Star Rock
Wesley Ward barn showing up here and already won with a local runner, but this guy is sure to take cash based on the name barn, and he could be going the wrong way in the lane.


#4 Relmbunkus Syr
Has been putting things together in recent starts, but I don't trust him to hold that form for too long, and the price won't be much.


Race Summary
Babeswildweekend has had more than his share of chances, but he'll be a decent price while meeting a couple of likely underlaid players.


Mountaineer - Race #7


Picks
Notes


#1 Romantic Jewel
Flashed brief chasing pace in the debut run, and she has every right to do better with that race under her belt while dropping in class for this.


#5 Ruby's Rush
Doesn't often threaten for major awards, but this isn't a deep bunch and her baseline effort may be enough to land a big share of this.


#2 Roses For Doug
This 20-start maiden looks like one of the ones in here, and she proved a decent fit with the locals in that last run.


Race Summary
Romantic Jewel can show some speed from the fence here, and this easier spot may allow her to produce something better in her second trip to post.


Mountaineer - Race #8


Picks
Notes


#3 All About Ready
Looks for his fourth win in a row, and he should be able to get a dreamy finishing trip from close range. The rest of this group is full of almost all early burners, so his ability to finish a bit may be the difference.


#6 Springmeier
Has a right to be pretty tough with these, and he draws best of the forward players to prompt the splits from the outside. Wouldn't want too short a number.


#2 Soul of Discretion
He has a mild rating gear that may serve him well if all the pace shows up early here, and he's a danger if he can bring something close to that August form for the new barn.


Race Summary
All About Ready may offer a playable price despite rattling off three in a row, and his running style should serve him well in a race full of speed.

Frank Carulli's Daily Picks Harrah's Philadelphia - Race #2


Picks
Notes


#5 DUCKIES DYNASTY
Found best stride too late at the Meadowlands in fast race.


#4 AMRCANBOOTSCOOTA A
Fell a nose short of four consecutive wins at Yonkers.


#3 MY IDEAL SON
Finished 1-2-3 at this level in September before testing better.


Race Summary
Duckies Dynasty was off the gate at the start, unhurried tracking a lively pace, blocked in the middle half and full of run too late. He should go well in this spot at a fair price. Play a 5-4-ALL trifecta.


The Meadows - Race #5


Picks
Notes


#3 CHARIOT RACER
Overpowered similar foes in lane, taken to repeat.


#2 ENTRANCED
Rallied behind top one for third, moves outside in.


#8 KINETIC KING
Early position the key for classy 10-year-old.


Race Summary
Chariot Racer flushed out the favorite, tipped 3-wide for the stretch drive and was tons the best in his win two weeks ago at this level. He is handled by top connections, so let’s make him today’s Best Bet.


Northfield Park - Race #1


Picks
Notes


#7 MJ’S MOJO MISSION
Longshot stab in dreadful field off encouraging qualifier.


#6 PETER PIPER
Made middle move into slow pace but in faster division of split race.


#8 AWAY GOES ROSIE
Just missed after 3-to-5 favorite broke stride early in race.


Race Summary
MJ’s Mojo Mission showed a sign of life in his most recent qualifier, presumably with an equipment change to ‘hopples off.’ He starts for a new barn after two years away but his rivals are a combined 2-for-129. Play a 7-ALL exacta.

[Can'tPickAWinner]

Jerry Shottenkirk's Daily Picks Gulfstream Park West - Race #5


Picks
Notes


#4 Rocket Blast
Crushed maiden claimers by 17 lengths in a race that came off the turf; he proved he can get the distance and was on the board in both turf attempts.


#2 Sun Squall
Was third in his last four and was claimed two races back by Arriagada; can be in the mix throughout this.


#8 Maverick Kitten
Was claimed in his latest by the Broome stable and comes in off a third at the same price; broke his maiden two back and has some late energy.


Race Summary
Rocket Blast ran well in his two turf races and can be a strong player on either surface.


Gulfstream Park West - Race #6


Picks
Notes


#2 The Distractor
Was never challenged in a maiden victory in his only start and wins if he runs back to that one.


#1 Tiger
Was on the board in all four of his races and can be a pace factor; may have to run without the lead, and that could be to his advantage.


#5 Drain the Clock
Drew off to an easy score going shorter and can be part of the pace; probably will get the most play.


Race Summary
The Distractor was very impressive in his only start and while he faces horses that also were sharp, he just might be just too much for them.


Gulfstream Park West - Race #7


Picks
Notes


#1 Centsless Drama
Has tons of early energy and can lead at every point of this one; won a race four back and was second in his last three. Can dig in under redh-hot Jaramillo, who is hitting at 24 percent and won seven races last week.


#6 What a Beaut
Has been a lot of time vs. good company and comes off a fast-closing second in a state-bred allowance; can close into this pace.


#2 Dance Till Dawn
Improved position last out after winning two straight; can get a tracking position just off the leader and could very well run a big one.


Race Summary
Centsless Drama has good turf-route-front-running energy and has a good chance to lead at every call; due to get back to the winner's circle.

# 2 MY LAST MILLION 7/2




# 7 SHE'S NOT BLUFFING 9/5




# 6 ALL ABOUT BLEU 4/1




MY LAST MILLION has a formidable shot to take this race. Looks decent for the conditions of this competition today, showing solid figs in dirt sprint races as of late. With Gomez getting the mount, watch out for this equine. A solid 77 avg Equibase class rating may give this mare a distinct class edge against this group. SHE'S NOT BLUFFING - Has performed admirably recently in sprint races, posting a nifty 53 avg speed rating. Shows signs of the look of a profitable play, averaging a solid 53 speed figure which is one of the most favorable in this group of horses. ALL ABOUT BLEU - Alvarado has been sizzling the last month, winning at a nifty 15 percent clip. The conditioner wheels this horse back quickly to race again.

#1 CELTURIAN (ML=5/1)
#4 FRENCH COAST (ML=9/5)


CELTURIAN - You always have to be on the prowl for revenue generating jockey/handler duos; we have it right here. My partners and I have made bucks playing horses with this type of speed. Follow my advice and do the same. FRENCH COAST - A repeat of that recent performance on Oct 8th where he recorded a speed rating of 69 looks lofty enough to score in this race. A campaigner coming back this rapidly after a solid race is a good sign. Horse has improved at least 2 speed rating points in last two races. I look for that to continue in today's race.

Vulnerable Contenders: #6 STANLEY RYDER (ML=3/1), #2 INQUISITION (ML=7/2), #7 BLEU MUSKET (ML=6/1),

STANLEY RYDER - I cannot play this confirmed non-winner. Gets the job completed occasionally. Don't feel this pony will make a winning move in today's race. That last speed rating was quite unimpressive when compared with today's class rating. INQUISITION - Hard to bet on any horse to turn things around if there is no wager value to taking the shot. BLEU MUSKET - Garnered a most unsatisfactory speed rating in the last race in a $5,000 Maiden Claiming race on October 14th. Not probable to see an improved performance off of that rating.

I've got to go with BOLITA BOYZ. Overall the speed figs of this equine look very strong in this outing. Risk takers ought to feel comfortable with this pick given Silvera's recent gains at the window. Garnered a sound speed rating in the last race. Can run another good one in this race. PEGASUS RED - With a +20 return on investment, this jock and conditioner combo has produced very strong profits recently for investors. Could best this group of horses based on the speed rating - 76 - of his last affair. COBH - Has been racing solidly and has among the most favorable speed in the race for today's distance. Vazquez has one of the top winning percentages in this group of animals with entries running at this distance and surface.

#3 PARADISE N REACH (ML=8/1)
#1 STORM N GOLD (ML=5/1)
#5 NOTHIN BUT CLASS (ML=12/1)


PARADISE N REACH - First-timer has morning drills over the Zia Park strip, which is always a plus. Dominant pedigree lines with this one. Sire's 2YO winning pct is at a 50 pct clip. Always beware the longer priced animal when a trainer has an 'uncoupled' entry in a race. A strong handicapping angle is 1st time Lasix. Marr gives it to this one for this event. With no recent past performance lines, one of the variables I look at are trainer stats, and Marr has a +89 percent ROI clip with first time starters. STORM N GOLD - This trainer has a super ROI with first time starters. Gets help from Marr with the addition of Lasix. NOTHIN BUT CLASS - You always have to be on the watch for revenue generating rider/trainer combos; we have an instance right here.

Vulnerable Contenders: #10 BOSSY BABY (ML=7/2), #7 ZIVA DA'VID (ML=4/1), #2 ALL STEAMED UP (ML=9/2),

BOSSY BABY - This filly recorded a speed figure in her last event which likely isn't good enough in today's race. ZIVA DA'VID - Difficult to invest in any horse to turn things around if there is no large gain to taking the chance. 4/1 is not worth the risk for any thoroughbred in a sprint of 5 1/2 furlongs that hasn't finished in the money in a sprint race recently. ALL STEAMED UP - Would have to perk up off that third place finish last time out of the box to make an impact here. Will be tough for this entrant to beat this field off of that last speed figure. Not probable to improve enough to run a figure anywhere near today's class rating, so put her on the questionable challengers list.
