Aqueduct - Race #3 - Post: 2:24pm - Claiming - 8.0 furlongs on the Dirt. Purse: $28,000 Class Rating: 69

Rating: https://www.trackmaster.com/images/golden.jpghttps://www.trackmaster.com/images/golden.jpghttps://www.trackmaster.com/images/golden.jpghttps://www.trackmaster.com/images/golden.jpg

#2 BRAVO REGINA (ML=7/2)


BRAVO REGINA - This jockey/trainer duo has been producing a very beneficial ROI, right at +939. Jockey hops up on board after getting to know the race horse by riding in the last race. That's always a good to see. Getting a break of 5 pounds from last race at Aqueduct. She should make the most of this advantage.

Vulnerable Contenders: #1 APRIL ANTICS (ML=9/5), #4 IN TRAFFIC (ML=5/2), #6 RICELLE (ML=4/1),

APRIL ANTICS - This runner has not tallied a victory here today in 10 starts. Little chance she wins today. This mare is always in the mix, but just doesn't finish on top. Difficult to play her on the top end. IN TRAFFIC - The speed figure in the last race doesn't fit very well in this contest when I look at the class rating of today's race. Mark this racer as a vulnerable competitor. RICELLE - Hasn't been close at all recently. Garnered a common speed figure last race out in a $16,000 Claiming race on March 26th. Not likely to see an improved performance off of that rating.





STRAIGHT WAGERS:

#2 BRAVO REGINA is the play if we get odds of 1/1 or better



EXACTA WAGERS:

Pass

# 9 FINNLEYS ENCORE 5/1




# 3 KIND WAYS 10/1




# 1 GEE GEE 12/1




FINNLEYS ENCORE has a respectable shot to take this race. This animal has a wonderful winning percentage in dirt sprints. Is a contender - given the 64 speed rating from her most recent race. KIND WAYS - The average class rating of 58 makes this horse difficult to beat. Reliable average speed figures in dirt sprint races make this racer a solid contender. GEE GEE - Could provide positive returns based on strong recent Equibase Speed Figures with an average of 66. Wagerers using horses with this jockey and handler duo have done strongly recently.

#15 AFTERNOON TEA (ML=6/1)
#8 BEACH WALKN (ML=10/1)
#11 UPPER CASE (ML=8/1)


AFTERNOON TEA - Prat rode this horse for the first time last out and comes right back in today's race. This horse's last race was at Oaklawn Park. Finished third, but had a pretty good chunk of the win pool. Could be dangerous right here. It is my opinion that fillys run better the second time they get Lasix. Brisset puts this filly on it for the 2nd time today, so give this one a look. BEACH WALKN - The jockey/trainer duo of Machado and Colebrook has a strong return on investment together. Filly ran well at big odds when she made her initial start March 2nd. Machado was aboard this filly in the last race and was impressed enough to take the animal right back. I look for a solid chance of improvement right here with the addition of Lasix for the 2nd time. This animal is at the top in earnings per start (EPS). She looks sharp in today's event. UPPER CASE - Corrales was aboard this filly in the last race and was impressed enough to take the horse right back.

Vulnerable Contenders: #9 FORENOON (ML=4/1), #2 CONTRIVE (ML=9/2), #3 MISSILE (ML=5/1),

FORENOON - Generally I need a sprinter to have some success lately in sprint races in order to support her. A rallier like this one needs a speed duel to set things up and she isn't likely to get one this time around. CONTRIVE - I'm predicting a less than stellar go of it out of her this time out. MISSILE - Trying to beat this thoroughbred this time out at the reward of 5/1.

https://www.trackmaster.com/images/tophat.jpgGUEST COMMENTARY: Hal - AFTERNOON TEA - Analysis shows this filly's last speed number of 80 is as good as any. Don't overlook this filly in your gambling.

# 6 RED FLAG 5/1




# 5 SUNRISE JOURNEY 3/1




# 3 HOWBEIT 2/1




I've got to go with RED FLAG. Recently Bravo has been sizzling which may give the edge to this horse. Had one of the strongest speed figures of this field in his last race. Displays strong speed figures on average overall when matched with the rest of this field. SUNRISE JOURNEY - Recently Barocio has provided wagerers with a strong winning percentage with horses racing in dirt sprint races. Looks very good against this field and ought to be one of the leaders. HOWBEIT - Overall the Equibase Speed Figures of this horse look formidable in this race. Formidable venture today on Lasix.

There won't be much defense being played between the Pistons and Pacers tonight. The Pistons rank 28th in defensive efficiency while the Pacers rank 26th. The Pistons have allowed at least 118 points in seven of their last eight games overall. The Pacers have allowed at least 114 points in 16 consecutive games.

Dave's Friday Free Play:
1* on Detroit Pistons +7
The Key: The Detroit Pistons are already locked into the worst record in the NBA. That gives them no reason to tank these last 2 games. The Pacers have pretty much quit on their season and wouldn't be doing themselves any favor by winning these last 2 games. They are sitting 3 of their best players and are just 1-6 SU & 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games overall. The Pacers are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 home games. If anything, the Pistons will be the hungrier team here to get a win. I like the price we are getting on them as a result. Take Detroit.

MLB | Nationals vs Rockies

Play on: Rockies -115 at circa

This is a 1* FREE PLAY on the Rockies.
Washington is 1-6, and Colorado is 3-4 after winning the opener of this four-game series by a score of 1-0 last night.
I had a play on the Rockies in that one, part of a 3-0 Thursday card. I think they offer good value here to keep that momentum rolling.
Mackenzie Gore earned a win over the Braves Sunday, allowing one run over 5.1 innings, but I say regression is now in order here in this difficult road venue.
Jose Urena got smashed by the Padres in his opener, but with that awkward outing out of the way, I see him settling down here in this favorable matchup.
Colorado has dominated Gore in the past, posting a .474/.545/.947 slash line over 19 at-bats.
The Nats bullpen is shaky at best as well.
Colorado owns the superior line-up and I think it is indeed worthy of a second look here on Friday night.
Consider the ROCKIES.
Good luck, NP

MLB | TOR vs LAA

Play on: OVER 9 -119

Jack's Free Pick Friday: Blue Jays/Angels OVER 9
Two of the best lineups in the American League square off in this series between the Los Angeles Angels and Toronto Blue Jays. The Angels are scoring 5.5 runs per game this season while the Blue Jays are hitting .291 and scoring 4.7 runs per game thus far.
Chris Bassitt had a rough spring allowing 11 earned runs in 17 2/3 innings. It carried over into his first regular season start as he allowed 9 earned runs in 3 1/3 innings of a 9-4 loss to the Cardinals.
Patrick Sandoval shut down the A's in his first start, allowing one earned run in 5 innings in a 13-1 Angels victory, but that's not saying much. He allowed 5 earned runs in 3 innings in his lone career start against Toronto last season.
The weather will help us cash this OVER ticket. Forecasts are calling for temps in the 60's in Los Angeles tonight with 10 MPH winds blowing out to center. The OVER is 5-1 in the last six meetings in Los Angeles. Bet the OVER in this game Friday.
