      # 2B TIME IS MONEY 15/1

      # 6 SITEENPARKSIDELANE 6/1

      # 5 CONFECTION FORTUNE 9/2

      TIME IS MONEY looks strong to best this group and is a strong value wager given the line. Boasts solid Equibase Speed Figures on average overall when compared with the rest of this group. SITEENPARKSIDELANE - Hardin has him trained admirably to break swiftly out of the gate. With a very good 59 speed figure last time out, will definitely be a factor in this outing.

        Golden Gate Fields - Race #2 - Post: 1:21pm - Maiden Claiming - 5.0 furlongs on the Dirt. Purse: $10,000 Class Rating: 71

        Rating: Golden DollarGolden DollarGolden DollarGolden Dollar

        #2 CAPTAIN D'ARTAGNAN (ML=3/1)
        #3 BRIGHTON BOY (ML=6/1)


        CAPTAIN D'ARTAGNAN - I really like that most recent contest on March 7th at Golden Gate Fields where he ran second. Dropped down in class last out, and keeps in that lower class in this event. A good sign this animal is comfortable and ready to go. BRIGHTON BOY - Likes to go to the lead and the fact that today is a shorter trip should be favorable. Taking a class drop in class figure points from his Jul 13th race at Los Alamitos (Thoroughbre. Based on that data, I will give this one the edge. Adding blinkers sometimes leads to improvement on the racetrack.

        Vulnerable Contenders: #9 BUTTE CITY (ML=5/2), #7 SEQUOYAH SUNSET (ML=7/2), #6 MISTER G. Q. (ML=8/1),

        BUTTE CITY - This gelding hasn't been showing me anything in the last two races around the track. Finished fifth in his most recent performance with a substandard speed rating. When I look at today's Equibase class figure, it would take an improved performance to win after that in this field. SEQUOYAH SUNSET - This gelding showed very liitle last time out. MISTER G. Q. - This gelding finished out of the money on Sep 22nd and wasn't close to victory last time around the track either.



        STRAIGHT WAGERS:
        Play #2 CAPTAIN D'ARTAGNAN to win if you can get odds of 7/5 or more

          # 2 AJWIBAH 5/2

          # 6 SCIENTIST KAT 3/1

          # 5 DEVILRY 7/2

          AJWIBAH has a quite good shot to take this race. Could provide positive gains based on very good recent speed figures with an average of 53. I like Otero on this gelding to give him a very good chance to hit the wire first. Must be given a shot based on the very good Equibase Speed Figure garnered in the last outing. SCIENTIST KAT - With Hernandez in the saddle guiding him, this gelding will most likely be able to break out quickly for this event. Had one of the most competitive Equibase Speed Figures of this group in his last race. DEVILRY - He has quite good class ratings, averaging 71, and has to be given a chance in this race. Will likely be one of the leaders of the pack going into the midpoint of the race.

              Oaklawn Park - Race #1 - Post: 1:30pm - Maiden Claiming - 5.5 furlongs on the Dirt. Purse: $45,000 Class Rating: 63

              Rating: Golden DollarGolden DollarGolden DollarGolden Dollar

              #9 MATAPAN (ML=5/2)


              MATAPAN - This jockey and trainer have a high win pct together. This filly should find these state breds easier than what she faced in her last race on Dec 20th. You have to really like that latest race speed rating, 54, which is the highest latest race figure of this field.

              Vulnerable Contenders: #3 R MARIE (ML=4/1), #5 ALL THE THINGS (ML=9/2), #1 WILD DEZ (ML=5/1),

              R MARIE - Hard to take this horse at the odds after the result (tenth) in the last event. ALL THE THINGS - Finished fourth on March 7th after the long turnout. Doubtful if there will be any betterment in this event. This filly finished outside the top 3 on Apr 8th and wasn't near the winner last time out either. WILD DEZ - Didn't perform too well last time. Probably won't make an impact in today's race. Not likely that the speed rating she recorded on Mar 14th will be good enough in this race.

              Top HatGUEST COMMENTARY: The Brain - MATAPAN - Finished a disappointing fifth at Fair Grounds on December 20th. But that was in the slop. Expect much better in today's event.





              STRAIGHT WAGERS:
              #9 MATAPAN is going to be the play if we are getting 1/1 or better

                            MLB Daily Line Drive: Opening Day picks, betting odds and analysis
                            Andrew Caley

                            The Under First 5 Innings went 23-4 in Jacob deGrom's last 27 starts last season. Will that trend roll over to 2019?

                            Winter is finally over. Which means baseball is back and MLB bettors can rejoice. That also means the return of our famous MLB Daily Line Drive, in which we will break down the odds, streaking and slumping starters, trends and much more, plus give you our best bets every day of the Big League season. Here is our MLB Daily Line Drive for Opening Day 2019.

                            DOUBLE-PLAY PICKS

                            NEW YORK METS vs WASHINGTON NATIONALS (-141, 6.5)


                            Those of you familiar with Line Drive, you’ll know that Opening Day this year means one thing, and one thing only…

                            IT’S JACOB DEGROM DAY!

                            We welcome back one of the most profitable baseball bets in recent memory. The Under first five innings in Jacob deGrom starts. The Mets and deGrom were a perfect storm for this bet. deGrom was spectacular on his way to the Cy Young Award, while the Mets were one of the worst hitting teams in baseball. As a result, the Under first five innings went 23-4 (85.2 percent) in his last 27 starts last season.

                            deGrom had a historic season in 2018, pitching to a ridiculous 2.67 ERA, a 1.07 WHIP while striking out 269 batters compared to 46 walks. He also limited batters to a .196 average and a .521 OPS. In the first five innings of games those numbers shrunk to a 1.52 ERA, a 0.87 WHIP and a .181 opponent batting average.

                            Now, the Mets did attempt to upgrade their offense this offseason bringing in Robinson Cano, Jed Lowrie and Wilson Ramos. But, none of those guys inspire that much confidence. We’ll need to see it before we can believe it when it comes to the Mets’ offense.

                            Oh, and did we mention? Some guy named Max Scherzer is starting for the Nationals. We heard he’s pretty good.

                            PICK: Under 3.5 First Five Innings (-130)

                            CHICAGO CUBS vs TEXAS RANGERS (+115, 9.5)

                            Life is tougher these days for the “Loveable Losers.” Expectations have grown since their 2016 world championship, and despite winning 187 games the last two seasons, not getting back to the Fall Classic has got to be a bit of a disappointment.

                            But there is no reason to think the Cubs won’t be in the mix for another National League Pennant in 2019. They trot out basically the same team they have the last couple of seasons and the rotation could be improved with a healthy Yu Darvish and a full season of Cole Hamels.

                            The Cubs open the season with an interleague matchup in Arlington, Texas where they’ll hand the ball to Jon Lester. Lester is a gamer who will be making his fourth consecutive Opening Day start for the Cubs against a Rangers team that is in Year 1 of its rebuild.

                            Lester was solid in 2018, posting a 3.32 ERA with a 1.31 WHIP, but he was more comfortable away from the “Friendly Confines.” On the road Lester went 11-2 with a 2.87 ERA and a 1.24 WHIP. He faces a Rangers lineup that is also mostly the same as last season and ranked 21st in average and OPS versus lefties.

                            Texas counters with Mike Minor. The lefty had a solid if unspectacular year in 2018 with a 4.18 ERA and a 1.12 WHIP. The Cubs ranked sixth in average and OBP against south paws a year ago. Take the Cubbies to start 2019 on the right note.

                            PICK:
                            Cubs RL (+115)

                            STREAKING AND SLUMPING STARTING PITCHERS

                            STREAKING


                            Blake Snell, Tampa Bay Rays (2018: 21-5, 1.89 ERA, $1,474): When you’re talking about streaking starters heading into a new season there’s no better place to start than the reigning Cy Young Award winner. Snell had a tremendous year for the Rays, pitching to a ridiculous 1.89 ERA, an 0.97 WHIP, good for a 20-5 record. He also led the AL in homer runs per nine innings.

                            He was even better at Tropicana Field, where he went 10-1 with a 1.27 ERA and a 0.87 WHIP. He’s in tough on Opening Day facing off against Just Verlander and the Astros. The Rays are currently +120 home dogs with a total of 6.5.

                            SLUMPING

                            Carlos Rodon, Chicago White Sox (2018: 6-8, 4.18 ERA, $66): The Pale Hose young south paw looked like 2018 was going to be his breakout year, then September happened. In Rodon’s final six starts of last season he pitched to a 9.22 ERA with a 2.12 WHIP.

                            Maybe the slog of another losing season got him down late in the year and could bounce back to start the season. Rodon and the White Sox are slight -105 favorites when they visit the Royals, with a total of 8.5.

                            Umpires are another overlooked aspect of baseball handicapping but knowing the tendencies of those guys calling balls and strikes can be a valuable recourse. For instance, did you know that thanks to his low strike rate (62.7 percent) Chris Guccione was the best Over umpire in baseball last season with games going 19-6 O/U when he was behind home plate? You can find all that information and more on our Umpire page.

                            The Yankees are massive -375 favorites for their home opener against the Orioles. That is the largest moneyline favorite on Opening Day since 2005. In fact, there has only been one other Opening Day over that span to close as a moneyline favorite greater than -300 and that was the Los Angeles Dodgers who closed as -355 favorites for their home opener against the Padres in 2017. It should be noted however, the Yankees were moneyline favorites of -300 or greater 13 times last season and only went 7-6.

                              Game of the Night - Denver at Houston (-5, 218), 8:05 ET, NBA TV

                              The Rockets’ loss in Milwaukee was disappointing for much more than the perception it might cost James Harden the MVP trophy. He likely wasn’t going to get enough first-place votes as it is, but shooting 1-for-9 from 3-point range as Giannis Antetokounmpo’s Bucks wrapped up a season sweep probably swung anyone on the fence. Houston matched its second-lowest point total of 2019 in a 108-94 loss that helped knock it down to fourth in the Western Conference when combined with Portland’s easy win in Chicago on Wednesday.

                              Denver is running second in the West despite nearly blowing a 27-point lead against Detroit, holding on for a 95-92 result that clinched its first 50-win season since 2013. The Nuggets are in the midst of a stretch that has them playing six of seven on the road, wrapping it up with another tough test in Oklahoma City on Friday. Of the nine games they’ve got left, seven will be against playoff teams, which makes surpassing Golden State for the West’s top record and homecourt advantage throughout the playoffs unlikely.

                              These teams would love nothing more than to see one another in the Western Conference semifinals, the earliest they’re likely to meet, because it means they would be avoiding the Warriors until a potential conference finals. The Nuggets are 3.5 games up on the Trail Blazers but considering their tough remaining schedule and the fact they still have to go through Portland on April 7, nothing is a given.

                              Denver has won seven of eight but has failed to top the 100-point mark in consecutive games for the first time this season. Worse yet, nearly blowing a huge lead against Detroit was another example of the Nuggets coasting home and failing to display killer instinct. They’ve covered in only two of their last six wins and are just 3-8 in their last 11 games as an underdog, which they’ll be tonight at the Toyota Center. Although they share the NBA’s top home record with Milwaukee, the Nuggets are a rather ordinary 19-17 outside of Colorado. Following Tuesday’s win, head coach Mike Malone said “I never know which team is going to be out there from quarter to quarter.”

                              The Rockets have to capitalize on Denver’s erratic form if they’re going to have any chance to pass them down the line since a victory here would be worth two games considering it would clinch a 3-1 season series edge. James Harden is averaging 28 points per game through their first three meetings but hasn’t shot over 44 percent in any of the three games. The Nuggets won the most recent meeting between these teams 136-122 on Feb. 1 despite Harden hitting half of his 14 3-point attempts. After falling behind 43-35 following a fast-paced first quarter, the Nuggets outscored the Rockets 48-28 in the second quarter to take control.

                              Malik Beasley led the Nuggets with 35 points, hitting five 3-pointers in a start with both Jamal Murray and Gary Harris sidelined. Nikola Jokic had 31 points, 13 rebounds and nine assists and has averaged 23.0 points, 12.7 rebounds and 5.7 assists against Houston, so any thoughts of an upset will have to start with him being more aggressive. Paul Millsap grabbed just one rebound in Denver’s most recent win over the Rockets and has racked up just four boards in the three games. He’s been playing his best basketball of late, averaging 14.0 points and 8.3 boards this month.

                              Houston scored 70 first-half points in its most recent win in this series, which has seen the last two meetings surpass the posted total after high-scoring opening halves. The ‘under’ is 11-2 in Rockets’ games this month and has prevailed in 14 of the last 16 games involving Denver since action resumed after the All-Star break.

                              Beasley was away from the team for the birth of his first child and is questionable to return for this contest. The Rockets will be without Kenneth Faried (knee) and Gerald Green (groin), which means Danuel House should play major minutes and Iman Shumpert will continue to get time on the wing.

                              Best of the Rest

                              Brooklyn at Philadelphia, 7:05 p.m. ET:
                              The Nets finally got back to the east coast after losing their 148-144 double-OT thriller in Portland on Monday and will conclude their seven-game road trip up the road in Philly in a potential playoff preview against the 76ers. The teams would meet as the 3-6 matchup in the Eastern Conference if the playoffs were to begin based on the current standings. Brooklyn snapped a three-game losing streak with its epic D’Angelo Russell-led comeback from 25 down in Sacramento and then went out and beat the Lakers, so a 2-4 run on this roadie has been respectable when you consider it lost at the buzzer to Lou Williams’ Clippers and fell to the Blazers in another game where they displayed an ability to rally.

                              Kenny Atkinson’s team goes hard and won the most recent matchup between these teams at Wells Fargo Center 127-124 back on Dec. 12 behind Spencer Dinwiddie’s 39 points. Joel Embiid led the Sixers with 33 points and 17 rebounds. Ben Simmons is set to return from a stomach issue that kept him out against Orlando in a loss in which his team missed his play-making skills, failing to produce a field goal for nearly a quarter’s worth of action. Mike Scott (back) and James Ennis III (quad) might miss this contest, which would bump up Jonathon Simmons and Jonah Bolden in Brett Brown’s rotation. Brooklyn is going in search of a 3-1 series victory over Philly that would certainly fuel its confidence if the teams were to meet in the playoffs. Allen Crabbe (knee) is out again. The 76ers had a streak of five consecutive ‘overs’ snapped by Orlando and have seen their last two encounters with the Nets top the posted total.

                              Orlando at Detroit, 7:05 p.m. ET:
                              The Magic’s six-game winning streak is the team’s longest since 2011 and has them atop the Southeast Division and just one game behind the sixth-seeded Nets, who would do hold the tiebreaker if the teams wind up even. Orlando would leapfrog the Pistons with a win here and would tie the season series up, so it’s a huge game for both teams. Detroit has dropped three straight, closing their longest road trip of the season with four consecutive covers but just a 1-4 mark overall to fall back to .500 for the first time since March 3. This is the wrong time of year to be going backward and with the schedule over the next week featuring a home game against Portland a home-and-home with Indiana and a visit to Oklahoma City, the need to get back on track tonight makes this a must-win.

                              The Pistons have won nine consecutive games at Little Caesar’s Arena, last losing on Feb. 2. Andre Drummond is averaging 17 points and 18.7 rebounds against the Magic, while Orlando’s Nikola Vucevic is averaging 20 points and 11 rebounds against Detroit. Vooch made the All-Star team over Drummond and these two haven’t seen each other since, so the matchup in the middle figures to be serious. Orlando has been among the NBA’s stingiest teams since the All-Star break and have dominated on the boards, leading to a 12-3 run for the ‘under’ in their games.

                              Dallas at Miami, 7:35 p.m. ET:
                              The Heat lost to Orlando at home on Tuesday to slide out of the eighth spot in the East and only have home games against the Celtics and 76ers left after tonight, so losing again would really dampen hopes of a Dwyane Wade farewell ending in the postseason. Miami has won nine of 13 and hasn’t dropped consecutive games since just after the All-Star break, so it has been reliable over the past few weeks as Erik Spoelstra has found the right blend to make the most of a suddenly healthy roster. The Mavericks have scored 118 or more points in five of the last six games and followed up a huge blowout win at Golden State with a 125-121 loss in Sacramento. Luka Doncic’s knee looks like less of an issue than it did last week, so the Mavs are quite capable of playing spoiler.

                              The Heat could be without Josh Richardson (heel), who is listed as questionable, and won’t have Justise Winslow or Rodney McGruder. It’s ironic that Dirk Nowitzki will be in town for a game that Dwyane Wade badly needs in order to avoid an early retirement. He scored a game-high 22 points in Miami’s 112-101 win in Dallas on Feb. 13. The Heat have already clinched a losing home record by falling to 17-21 in the loss to the Magic, but the Mavs are the league’s second-worst road team, coming in 7-30.

                              L.A. Clippers at Milwaukee, 8:05 p.m. ET:
                              The Clippers celebrated making the playoffs by breaking out the champagne, so we’ll see how hard they partied after beating Minnesota on Tuesday night. This will be the first-ever visit to Fiserv Forum for all the Clippers except Landry Shamet, who saw a handful of minutes back on Oct. 24 when the 76ers lost in Milwaukee. He’s questionable with an ankle injury that kept him out of the win over the Timberwolves. Fellow starting guard Patrick Beverley is dealing with a hip pointer but intends to play, which means L.A. will have a healthier roster than their hosts, who won their third in a row on this current homestand against the Rockets on Tuesday.

                              Milwaukee will look to sweep the four-game stretch despite being without Malcolm Brogdon (heel), Nikola Mirotic (hand) and Tony Snell (ankle), all key members of Mike Budenholzer’s usual rotation. Pau Gasol (ankle) and rookie Donte DiVincenzo (foot) are also out, so Sterling Brown has joined the starting lineup, Pat Connaughton has taken over the sixth man role and Ersan Ilyasova, George Hill and D.J. Wilson round out the bench. Considering they’re facing the team with the NBA’s most productive bench, averaging a league-high 53 points per game, this could be a dangerous game for the team with the NBA’s best home record (31-6).
