NFL's biggest betting mismatches: Week 13
Monty Andrews

The Jaguars come into the Week 13 with a league-best 41 sacks, resulting in 269 lost yards overall.

San Francisco 49ers at Chicago Bears (-3.5, 39.5)

49ers' wretched red-zone record vs. Bears' bend-but-don't-break D

It's a battle of teams who will likely have high picks in the 2018 draft when the Chicago Bears host the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday afternoon. The Bears have dropped four in a row to sink to the bottom of the NFC North division - a disappointing development considering Chicago was near the .500 mark prior to the skid. Getting back there is highly improbable, but Sunday's encounter with the 1-10 49ers offers hope thanks to a sizeable edge in opponent red zone play.

Bettors can dig up a variety of factors for San Francisco having just one victory on the season - and near the top of the list is the 49ers' season-long inability to convert trips inside the opponents' 20-yard line into touchdowns. San Francisco comes into Week 13 ranked 25th out of 32 teams in red-zone touchdown rate, reaching the end zone just 48.2 percent of those time. All those wasted trips downfield offer a reasonable explanation for why the 49ers average just 17 points per game in 2017.

Life doesn't get any easier for the San Francisco offense in this one, as the host Bears have actually been a solid defensive unit when it comes to red-zone scoring prevention. Teams have turned red-zone opportunities into six points just 48.7 percent of the time against Chicago, the 11th-best rate in the league. Neither team is expected to put many points on the board - check out that total - but give the Bears a big green checkmark in the red-zone D department - and that mismatch could very well decide this one.

Indianapolis Colts at Jacksonville Jaguars (-9.5, 40.5)

Colts' terrible QB protection vs. the phenomenon known as "Sasksonville"

The Jacksonville Jaguars can't get to Week 13 quickly enough. After seeing their four-game winning streak snapped in a 27-24 loss to the Arizona Cardinals, the Jaguars will look to regain sole possession of top spot in the AFC South as they host the division-rival Indianapolis Colts on Sunday afternoon. Jacksonville is already a near-double-digit favorite in this one, and could make it a blowout if they can exert their pass-rush dominance against a Colts team that has struggled to protect the quarterback.

Losing Andrew Luck for the season was certainly a blow to the Indianapolis offense, but it isn't like the Colts' offensive line would have done a good job of shielding him, anyhow. Indianapolis quarterbacks have been taken down a league-high 47 times so far this season; only two teams allowed more sacks than that in the entire 2016 season. Jacoby Brissett absorbed five sacks the last time these teams met, when Jacksonville cruised to a 27-0 victory back on Oct. 22.

But don't take all those takedowns personally, Jacoby - that's just how the Jaguars roll. They come into the week with a league-best 41 sacks, resulting in 269 lost yards overall. The Jacksonville defense has been incredibly proficient in a number of areas - sitting tied for third in forced fumbles (17), sharing the lead in recovered fumbles (11) and scoring a league-high four touchdowns on those recoveries - but it's all those sacks that should have Colts fans and bettors alike concerned this Sunday.

Cleveland Browns at Los Angeles Chargers (-13.5, 42.5)

Browns' robust run game vs. Chargers' ground struggles

Will Cleveland win a game this season? You might fancy a wager if you believe the Browns will pull out a win somewhere along the way - but don't expect that victory to come in Week 13, with the visitors a nearly-two-touchdown underdog against a Chargers team that has rolled to back-to-back victories and sits just one game back of division-leading Kansas City in the AFC West. But stay tuned, bettors: Cleveland might have a way to keep this one closer than expected.

Cleveland's offensive struggles are well noted - the team averages a league-worst 15.1 points per game on the back of a passing attack in which the Browns complete just over 54 percent of their attempts. But the running game has actually been an area of strength so far in 2017, averaging an impressive 4.4 yards per carry - the seventh-highest mark in the league. Isaiah Crowell has been able to move the chains for most of the season, provided that he doesn't get knocked out of the game script.

The Chargers will look to force Cleveland into repeated third-down situations, with the Browns converting a league-worst 30 percent of those opportunities to date. But Los Angeles might have trouble keeping the Browns from excelling on the ground - the home side is allowing 4.9 yards per carry this season, tied with New England for the worst rate against in the NFL. If Crowell can break off a handful of meaningful runs, the Browns could control the clock sufficiently to cover this massive spread.

Los Angeles Rams at Arizona Cardinals (+7, 45.5)

Rams' elite kicking game vs. Cardinals' field goal follies

The Los Angeles Rams essentially control their playoff fate as they head into Arizona for a Sunday afternoon appointment with the NFC West-rival Cardinals. The Rams own a one-game lead over the Seattle Seahawks atop the division, and can help bolster their postseason chances with a win this weekend. Much of the focus will be on the Los Angeles offense taking on Arizona's impressive defense - but let's not overlook the kicking game, where the visitors own a significant advantage.

Good teams get meaningful contributions from just about everyone on the roster - and the Rams certainly fit that bill, with terrific quarterback play from Jared Goff, an elite running game led by Todd Gurley and a stout defense anchored by Aaron Donald. But we can't forget placekicker Greg Zuerlein, who is having a career year with 32 field goals on 34 attempts through 11 games - including a 16-of-17 success rate on kicks of 40 yards or longer. The Rams' 94.1-percent field goal conversion rate ranks fourth overall.

The Cardinals have given plenty of points away via the turnover; they cough up the ball an average of 1.6 times per game, ranking 26th out of 32 teams entering the week. But they've also been negligent when it comes to spoiling field-goal opportunities. Kicker Phil Dawson has whiffed on six of his 23 field-goal attempts, including four from 30-39 yards. Not only do the Cardinals rank 25th in conversion rate league-wide, they've also seen opposing kickers make every field-goal attempt through 11 weeks.

NFL double-digit favorites a good bet in the final five weeks of the season
Ashton Grewal

NFL favorites are 45-20-4 against the spread in the last 30 days – a clip so high that even Charles Barkley and Michael Jordan couldn’t have lost money betting pro football in the last month.

Sportsbook managers aren’t having the best November, as senior writer Patrick Everson detailed, but the chalk won’t walk at a 69 percent clip over the last five weeks of the NFL season. Bettors will have to dig a little deeper to find ways to beat their bookies.

Looking at double-digit spreads is a good place to start. Double-digit favorites went 3-1 ATS last weekend with the New England Patriots putting down the Miami Dolphins by 18 points, the Philadelphia Eagles burying the Chicago Bears by four touchdowns, the Atlanta Falcons tearing up the Tampa Bay Buccaneers by 14 points and the Pittsburgh Steelers inching past the Green Bay Packers.

This could be a preview of what’s to come until the start of the postseason. We looked back over the last six years and found teams favored by 10 or more points are 38-29-1 ATS from Week 13 to Week 17. Even better, home teams are 41-26-1 ATS in games with double-digit spreads over the same time period.

Just last season, all six home teams in games with 10-point or larger spreads went 6-0 ATS while favorites went 5-1. There’s only one double-digit spread on the board this weekend (Chargers -13.5 vs. Browns) but there should be quite a few in the weeks to follow as teams punt on the season and start taking a look at their backup players to see which are worth holding onto for next season.

Here are some games to keep an eye on for potential double-digit spreads in Weeks 14 - 17:

Week 14

New England Patriots at Miami Dolphins

The Pats just covered as 17-point home favorites against the Phins last weekend. Barring an injury to Tom Brady or a brain tumor for Bill Belichick, New England will be large favorites at Miami.

Week 15

Chicago Bears at Detroit Lions

The Lions won’t be confused for world beaters, but the Bears’ offense is so putrid it’s hard not seeing them getting at least 10 points in this divisional game.

Philadelphia Eagles at New York Giants

The Giants are already planning for the future that probably doesn’t include Eli Manning as their starting quarterback. This could be another huge line if Geno Smith is still at QB for the G-Men and the Eagles are still playing for the top overall seed in the NFC.

New York Jets at New Orleans Saints

Gang Green has been a double-digit underdog just once this season and that was all the way back in Week 2 against the Raiders. That seems like a long, long time ago. Despite the Saints’ setback against the Rams, bettors still love backing Drew Brees and the boys from the Bayou.

Week 16

Oakland Raiders at Philadelphia Eagles

The Raiders are a mess. Head coach Jack Del Rio is presently prepping index cards with the names of his assistant coaches and assorting them by the likelihood who will be his next scapegoat to save his job.

Week 17

New York Jets at New England Patriots

It’s safe to assume Brady will be playing in Week 17 because he did last season when the Pats had the first seed already sewn up.

Cleveland Browns at Pittsburgh Steelers

Will the Browns still be winless on the last weekend of the season? Would the Steelers put the squeeze on their division rival in a meaningless game for them or would they protect Ben Roethlisberger, Antonio Brown and Le’Veon Bell from injury?

Chicago Bears at Minnesota Vikings

The Vikes have won a lot of games this season but have been double-digit faves just once – and that was against… you guessed it… the Browns. Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer hates losing preseason games, so it’s safe to assume he wouldn’t take his foot off the gas pedal even if there was nothing to play for in Week 17 for his team.

Essential Week 13 betting tidbits and odds for NFL Sunday

Calais Campbell and the Jacksonville Jaguars defense leads the league in most quarterback sacks and goes against the Indianapolis Colts who happen to allow the most sacks per game in the league.

Kansas City Chiefs at New York Jets (+3, 43.5)

The Chiefs are in free fall after starting the year a perfect 5-0 straight up and against the spread, they’ve dropped to 6-5 SU and ATS. This type of collapse isn’t unprecedented. The Vikings did the same thing just last season and finished the season with an 8-8 record. The Chiefs became the 17th team to start a season 5-0 ATS. The previous 16 teams averaged 11.4 wins in their seasons.

Kansas City’s offense went from averaging 32.8 points per game over the first five weeks to 18 per game since Week 6.

LINE HISTORY: The Chiefs opened as 4-point road faves and the spread has moved down to a field goal line. The total is hanging around 43.5 and 44.

TRENDS:

*KC is 1-5 ATS in its last six games.
*The Jets are 6-1 ATS in their last seven home games.
*The over is 4-1 in the Jets’ last five games.

Denver Broncos at Miami Dolphins (+1.5, 39.5)

The Broncos have lost seven games in a row and all the losing is starting to make the players on the team sick… literally. Head coach Vance Joseph says a flu bug is running through his team and was the reason defensive end Shelby Harris and linebacker Shane Ray missed practice on Wednesday. Keep your eye on reports over the weekend to see if any other players are feeling under the weather.

LINE HISTORY: Miami opened as 1-point chalk and the line has flipped to make Denver the new short fave. The total opened at 38 and has gone as high as 40. Most shops are dealing 39.5.

TRENDS:

*The Broncos are 0-7 ATS in their last seven games.
*The Fish are 0-4-2 ATS in their last six games.
*The over is 6-0 in Miami’s last six games.

New England Patriots at Buffalo Bills (+9, 48)

Great stat from ESPN Bills beat reporter Mike Rodak. The Bills were first in the league in fewest points allowed after Week 4 (13.5 PPG) while the Patriots were second last at 32 points allowed per game. Since Week 5 the Bills are allowing 29.4 points per game – tied for second worst – and New England is allowing a league-best 13.1 points per game.

LINE HISTORY: The Pats opened as 7.5-point favorites but the spread seems to be settling at 8.5 or 9. The total opened as high as 49.5 and now rests at 48 as we enter the weekend.

TRENDS:

*The Patriots are 11-2 ATS in their last 13 trips to Buffalo.
*The over is 5-1 in the Bills' last six games.

Minnesota Vikings at Atlanta Falcons (-3, 47)

His head coach isn’t calling him the unquestioned starter at quarterback but Case Keenum is getting love everywhere else. He was awarded the NFC Offensive Player of the Month for November and was given a boisterous standing ovation at Timberwolves home game earlier this week.

LINE HISTORY: The spread opened with the Falcons listed as a field goal favorite and there hasn’t really been any wavering from the books. The total is staying pretty consistent too at 47.

TRENDS:

*The Vikings are 39-15 ATS in their last 54 games overall.
*The over is 13-3 in the Falcons’ last 16 home games.

Houston Texans at Tennessee Titans (-6.5, 43)

Turnovers have become a big problem for Tom Savage and the Texans. Houston has coughed up the ball up nine times in its last three games and Savage is responsible for 12 turnovers in his five starts this season. The giveaways could be even higher. Two weeks ago Houston fumbled the ball four times but only lost possession once.

LINE HISTORY: The books opened with the Titans giving seven points and the line has dropped a half point to make the Texans now 6.5-point road dogs. The total is holding steady at 42.5.

TRENDS:

*The over is 4-0 in Tennessee’s last four home games.
*The Texans are 7-1 ATS in their last eight games against the Titans.

San Francisco 49ers at Chicago Bears (-3, 41)

Quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo will make his first start for San Fran this weekend but he might be starting more out of necessity more than anything else. The Niners ponied up a second round pick to the Patriots for Garoppolo before the trade deadline but haven’t given him any game time yet.

Former starter C.J. Beathard is working through a sore hip and isn’t healthy enough to start this weekend. Garoppolo doesn’t know Kyle Shanahan’s full playbook which means the Niners will be working with a limited amount of plays on Sunday against Chicago.

“Whatever [Garoppolo] doesn’t feel comfortable with and doesn’t get down in these three practices, then we’ll take it out,” Shanahan said at the beginning of the week.

LINE HISTORY: The books opened with the Bears favored by 4.5 points when Beathard was the expected starter. The spread dropped 1.5 points once Garoppolo was announced as the starter. The total moved up from 39.5 to 41.

TRENDS:

*The Bears are 8-2-1 ATS in their last 11 home games.
*The Niners are 1-4 ATS in their last five games.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Green Bay Packers (-2, 45)

The Bucs will have Jameis Winston back under center after a three-game absence to rest his sore shoulder. Starting running back Doug Martin will not be joining Winston in the backfield on Sunday. He suffered a concussion last weekend and hasn’t practiced this week for the Bucs.

LINE HISTORY: There’s been a 4-point swing on this spread. The Bucs opened as 2-point road chalk but the line went the other way after the Packers’ impressive showing against the Steelers.

TRENDS:

*The Bucs are 2-7-1 ATS in their last 10 games.
*The over is 18-6 ATS in the Packers’ last 24 games.

Indianapolis Colts at Jacksonville Jaguars (-9.5, 41)

The Colts have a terrible offensive line. The team has given up a league-worst 47 sacks including 10 to the Jags in Week 7. Jacksonville’s defense has the most QB takedowns this season with 41 in 11 games.

LINE HISTORY: The Jags opened as 8.5-point faves and have been bet up to as high as 10-point chalk at some shops. The total has moved up a half point from 40.5 to 41.

TRENDS:

*The Jags are 5-1 ATS in their last six games against AFC South opponents.
*The under is 4-1 in the Colts’ last five games.

Detroit Lions at Baltimore Ravens (-3, 43.5)

The Lions might have to get a little creative in how they move the chains against the Ravens. Detroit hasn’t had a dynamic ground game since Barry Sanders was juking defenders out of their cleats in the late ‘90s. The Lions own the third worst rushing attack in the league at 78.3 yards per game.

That’s bad news because the Ravens’ specialty is their pass defense. Baltimore allows the second fewest yards through the air in the league at 189.9 behind only Jacksonville.

LINE HISTORY: The line opened at a field goal spread and that’s where it’s stay all week with most shops tinkering with the juice rather than move up or down by a half point. The total opened as low as 40 and is now up to 43.

TRENDS:

*The over is 4-0 in the Lions’ last four games.
*The over is 5-2 in the Ravens’ last seven games.

Cleveland Browns at Los Angeles Chargers (-13.5, 44)

For a second time this season the Chargers are having major issues at the kicker position. The Bolts cut Younghoe Koo – their starting kicker out of training camp – a few weeks into the season and replaced him with veteran Steve Novak. But now Novak’s back is acting up and preventing him from making easy kicks as viewers witnessed on Thanksgiving when he a 35-yard attempt and an extra point try against Dallas.

LA signed Travis Coon – the Browns kicker from 2015 – to the practice squad and there’s a good chance he’ll be promoted to the active roster to take kicks on Sunday against Cleveland.

LINE HISTORY: The spread opened at 13 and there are a few locations that have moved the line up to the two-touchdown mark. The total is available offshore as high as 44 and as low as 42 in Vegas.

TRENDS:

*The Browns are 5-15-1 ATS in their last 21 road games.
*The Chargers are 6-1 ATS in their last seven games overall.
*The under is 5-1 in the Chargers’ last six games.

Carolina Panthers at New Orleans Saints (-5, 48)

Panthers coach Ron Rivera was up to a little bit of gamesmanship for this week’s game. When looking at the tape of his team’s previous encounter with the Saints, he noticed Drew Brees and the opposing offense were a little too quick with their hurry-up looks.

He sent tape to the league office requesting this week’s game officials pay extra attention to any Saints players who are still moving when the ball is hiked. Maybe it’ll lead to one or two more false starts for New Orleans.

LINE HISTORY: New Orleans opened as 4-point chalk and the bookies bumped the spread up to Saints -5. The total is staying put at 47.5 and 48.

TRENDS:

*The Panthers are 4-0 ATS in their last four games overall.
*The Panthers are 7-1 ATS in their last seven road games.
*The Panthers are 0-5 ATS in their last five games against the Saints.

New York Giants at Oakland Raiders (-9, 42)

The Oakland Raiders will be without their top two wide receivers on Sunday against the New York Giants. Michael Crabtree will serve his one-game suspension for his part in a brawl against the Broncos last weekend and Amari Cooper will not play because of a bad wheel and a concussion. Both injuries stem from a hit Cooper took in the Denver game.

LINE HISTORY: The Raiders opened as 7.5-point faves but moved up 9-point chalk after the Giants announced Geno Smith would be starting in place of Eli Manning. The total opened at 40 points and is now up to 42 at most locations.

TRENDS:

*The Giants are 0-4 ATS vs. teams with losing records.
*The Raiders are 2-6-1 ATS in their last nine games overall.

Los Angeles Rams at Arizona Cardinals (+7, 44.5)

There’s a reason Rams head coach Sean McVay earned the reputation as a quarterback whisperer. He whispers in their ears. Literally.

McVay likes to get his offense to line of scrimmage early in the play clock so that he can survey the defense and communicate via headset to his starting quarterback, Jared Goff, about the pre-snap reads. He can do this until there is 15 seconds left on the play clock by rule and then Goff is on his own.

Former NFL quarterback Chris Simms went on Pro Football Talk radio and said he thought this practice – while legal – was cheating. Maybe he’s just pissed he didn’t have a QB whisper as good as McVay for his five minutes in the league.

LINE HISTORY: This spread opened with the Rams favored by seven points and that’s where most shops still have the line. There are some locations dropped down to Cards +6.5 while others stay at 7 and play with the juice.

TRENDS:

*The Rams are 5-1 ATS in their last six games.
*The Cards are 6-14-1 ATS in their last 21 games.

Philadelphia Eagles at Seattle Seahawks (+5, 47)

This is the biggest home underdog the Seahawks have been since Week 10 in the 2011 season when the Ravens were 7-point road favorites. Seattle won that game, won again later in that same year when the Eagles were 3-point away faves and won outright the next season when the Pats came to town and were giving 3.5 points.

Seattle went 42 games at home before the next time oddsmakers would make the club a home underdog – which happened last week when the Falcons won and covered as 1-point away chalk.

The Seahawks are 1-4 ATS at home this season.

LINE HISTORY: Oddsmakers opened with the Seahawks getting 3.5 points and the spread is now as high as Eagles -5.5. The total doesn’t seem to be budging off 47.5 and 47.

TRENDS:

*The Eagles are 8-0 ATS in their last eight games.
*The over is 14-3 in the Eagles’ last 17 road games.

Sunday Night Football Betting Preview and Odds: Eagles at Seahawks

Russell Wilson has a team-leading 401 yards rushing for Seattle, which receives little else from its backfield and faces Philadelphia's top-ranked run defense (65.1 yards per game).

Philadelphia Eagles vs Seattle Seahawks (+5, 47)

The Philadelphia Eagles haven't just been victorious during their nine-game winning streak, they've been downright dominant with 28-point routs in a franchise-record three consecutive contests. The Eagles can clinch the NFC East title as well as host a playoff game should they continue their destructive ways in the Pacific Northwest on Sunday night against the Seattle Seahawks.

"For us, there's nothing to measure. We are our measuring stick," safety Malcolm Jenkins said on the heels of Philadelphia's stifling defense limiting Chicago to just 140 yards in Sunday's 31-3 romp at Lincoln Financial Field. Second-year quarterback Carson Wentz, who leads the NFL's top-ranked scoring unit (31.9 points per game), tossed three touchdown passes versus the Bears and has 22 of his NFL-best 28 in the last seven games to put his name firmly in the mix for NFL MVP honors. Included in that discussion is Seattle counterpart Russell Wilson, who is third in the league in passing touchdowns (23), tied for fourth in passing yards per game (275) and responsible for nearly 86 percent of his team's scrimmage yards. Wilson threw for two touchdowns and ran for another in his second straight game on Sunday to lead the Seahawks to their sixth win in eight outings, a 24-13 victory at San Francisco.

TV: 8:30 p.m. ET, NBC.

POWER RANKINGS: Eagles (-6.5) - Seahawks (-2.5) + home field (-3) = Eagles -1.

LINE HISTORY: The Eagles opened the week as 3-point road faves and early money coming in on the road team pushed that number as high as +6 before fading back slightly to +5 at most books. The total hit the betting board at 48 and has been bet down to 47.

WEATHER REPORT: Partly cloudy and 43 degrees at kickoff - negligible winds and a 10% chance of precipitation

INJURY REPORT:

Eagles - CB Patrick Robinson (Probable, Knee), DT Beau Allen (Probable, Knee), TE Trey Burton (Probable, Back), WR Alshon Jeffrey (Probable, Foot), DE Derek Barnett (Questionable, Groin), C Jason Kelce (Questionable, Ankle), LB Joe Walker (Questionable, Neck), CB Sidney Jones (Questionable, Achilles), K Caleb Sturgis (Out Indefinitely, Quadricep).

Seahawks - LB Bobby Wagner (Probable, Hamstring), G Oday Aboushi (Probable, Shoulder), TE Jimmy Graham (Probable, Ankle), CB Shaquill Griffin (Probable, Concussion), RB Mike Davis (Probable, Groin), S Earl Thomas (Questionable, Heel), OT Duane Brown (Questionable, Ankle), LB Josh Forrest (Questionable, Foot), G Luke Joeckel (Questionable, Knee), DE Dion Jordan (Questionable, Neck), LB D.J. Alexander (Questionable, Shoulder), TE Luke Willson (Questionable, Concussion), S Kam Chancellor (Out For Season, Neck), CB Deshawn Shead (Questionable, Knee), DT Malik McDowell (I-R, Concussion).

ABOUT THE EAGLES (10-1 SU, 9-2 ATS, 6-5 O/U): Wentz's two favorite targets are Alshon Jeffery and tight end Zach Ertz, who each have seven touchdown receptions in addition to six catches of at least 20 yards this season. Jeffery has found the end zone in four consecutive games and Ertz had a team-best 10 receptions for 103 yards last week while reeling in a touchdown pass for the sixth time in six contests. Running backs LeGarrette Blount, trade acquisition Jay Ajayi and rookie Corey Clement pace the league's second-ranked rushing offense (147.5 yards per game). Defensive end Brandon Graham has three sacks in his last four games, with his team-leading and career-best seventh on Sunday triggering a $250,000 escalator for his 2018 salary.

ABOUT THE SEAHAWKS (7-4 SU, 4-6-1 ATS, 4-7 O/U): Tight end Jimmy Graham leads the NFL with eight red-zone touchdown receptions, with each of them coming in his last seven games. Graham has gained the trust of Wilson, who has seen traditional favorite target Doug Baldwin limited to just two catches in each of his last two outings. Linebacker Bobby Wagner has been nursing an ailing hamstring during the last few weeks, but the injury has done little to slow him down during games. Wagner had an interception last week and recorded eight of his NFL third-best 100 tackles, marking the sixth consecutive season that he has reached triple digits in that department.

TRENDS:

* Eagles are 8-0 ATS in their last 8 games following a straight up win.

* Eagles are 12-2 ATS in their last 14 games overall.

* Seahawks are 0-5-1 ATS in their last 6 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.

* Over is 14-3 in Eagles last 17 road games.

CONSENSUS: The public is siding with the road chalk Eagles at a rate of 57 percent and the Over is getting 60 percent of the totals action.

Gulfstream Park - Race #7 - Post: 3:35pm - Claiming - 8.5 furlongs on the Turf. Purse: $29,000 Class Rating: 97

Rating: 3

#3 CRUZ DIEZ (ML=9/2)
#2 PASSPORT TO CHAOS (ML=7/2)


CRUZ DIEZ - Diaz is right back for another race today after getting on board this horse for the 1st attempt on Nov 15th and ought to know the ropes to this one a little better. Comparing how the horses in this field have fared under similar conditions, I see this horse has the highest speed rating for the distance-surface. Sub-par performance last time out at Gulfstream Park West was due to the off-going (he ended up fifth). Have to give a better effort right here without a sloppy track. PASSPORT TO CHAOS - Have to watch for this animal on the grass. Last race at Belmont Park, scored a big turf rating. Have to think he can do it again in this race. For my money, a bullet workout is the best indicator of fitness there is. Look at that last one - 38.2. Very impressive. I seem to always make money betting Servis horses on the grass. That barn has a powerful win pct for this distance/surface. That 98 fig this colt notched in his last affair tells me he's a big time player in today's event. The improved speed figs over the last 3 races is strong. Servis drops him in this event ready to win.

Vulnerable Contenders: #1 WORD ON THE STREET (ML=6/1), #8 TERRY'S CHARM (ML=6/1), #7 SALUTE THE COLONEL (ML=8/1),

WORD ON THE STREET - Last performed on September 9th at Kentucky Downs, finishing tenth. Not likely to perk up off of that try in today's race. This steed ran a most unsatisfactory speed rating last time out. He shouldn't improve and will likely get beat today running that rating. TERRY'S CHARM - Hard to put any cash on this colt on the win end. Likes to hit the board though. No pace in this field to help set-up his late kick. SALUTE THE COLONEL - This rallier should have a rough go of it to get up with the absence of pace in this race.

Top HatGUEST COMMENTARY: The Turf Man - CRUZ DIEZ - This noble animal, posting the top average class figure, figures to give these ponies a run for their money.

# 3 BONA FIDE OA 5/2

# 5 HW DOUBLE DOWN PERRY 3/1

# 1 ROQUES SECRET STORM 8/1

BONA FIDE OA looks formidable to best this field. Is hard not to consider based on Equibase Speed Figures which have been respectable - 56 avg - of late. He looks solid in this spot and I expect will be on the lead or close at the midpoint. Must be given a shot - I like the figs from the last contest. HW DOUBLE DOWN PERRY - Overall the Equibase Speed Figures of this horse look formidable in this competition. This gelding looks strong in this competition since Fales has a sharp win percent with horses going this distance. ROQUES SECRET STORM - Don't let this gelding slip past you. Could win at high odds. With a nice Equibase class figure average of 80, has one of the top class advantages in this field.

Rating: 4

#8 OCEAN COURT (ML=3/1)
#9 DELASTE DANCE (ML=20/1)


OCEAN COURT - That recent bullet 48.2 work shows that this filly is ready for a top effort today. This filly is in good physical condition. Ended up third on November 12th. Another way to determine class is earnings per race. This horse has the highest in the group. I think she'll be close at the finish line. DELASTE DANCE - Filly made a nice late run going 6 1/2 furlongs on November 17th. I have to like her chances stretching out today.

Vulnerable Contenders: #1 SUMMER FALLS (IRE) (ML=4/1), #3 BLUE PEARLS (ML=5/1), #2 GEORGIA SWEETS (ML=6/1),

SUMMER FALLS (IRE) - Hasn't been close at all recently. Garnered a substandard fig last time out in a $25,000 Maiden Claiming race on November 22nd. Unlikely to see an improved performance off of that fig. BLUE PEARLS - This filly has had numerous tries at Woodbine and still no wins. GEORGIA SWEETS - 6/1 odds isn't enough for this entrant when looking at the most recent showings.

#8 OCEAN COURT is the play if we get odds of 7/5 or better

# 4 STRYKR FORCE 8/1

# 3 ESTRELLA DAMM 8/1

# 5 A PASSION FOR FLASHN 7/2

STRYKR FORCE figures to be the wager in here especially at 8/1. Could beat this group of animals given the 94 speed figure put up in his last outing. Gamblers should probably take a good look at this one as this gelding has one of the best win percentages at this distance in this field. This gelding has been constatntly running well in his latest outings. ESTRELLA DAMM - Should go to the lead and might never look back. Always seems to be close up at the finish. A PASSION FOR FLASHN - Has been consistently running well lately. Has run strongly when running a short race.
