#5 AMERICANO (ML=7/2)
#4 GAME DAY DRAMA (ML=5/2)
YOUNG AMERICAN - Spieth and Rini partnered up are a punter's friend.EXPEDITER - Looking at today's class figure, this campaigner is meeting an easier bunch than last race out at Finger Lakes.I like the fact that this gelding's last fig, 83, is tops in this bunch.AMERICANO - Earnings per race is something that I believe can be a valuable handicapping factor. This horse is ranked at the top in this bunch.GAME DAY DRAMA - When this jock and trainer combine forces you have to take a look. Mena and Vaccarezza have been terrific together.A racer coming back this promptly after a sharp effort is a good sign.I like horses that return to a similar class level after dropping at least five Equibase class figure points like this one did last time around the track. I believe he'll be competitive at this class.
Vulnerable Contenders: #7 PASSIONATE HACHI (ML=4/1)
PASSIONATE HACHI - No good fortune for this steed in a short distance race over the last sixty days tells me that this gelding is in a tough situation

#1 TIMELESS DI (ML=6/1)
HYPERLOOP - Camacho and Dini perform well when they work together. It's hard to beat a +197 ROI for a jock and trainer.I like this first timer mainly because her workouts for this have been here at Tampa Bay Downs.I know the outfit is serious today. The filly gets Lasix for the first time.FLAMING INDY - Have to like this filly today. If you take a look at her PP lines you see a definite trend, getting closer with each race.Have to give this filly a shot. Ran a solid race in the last race within the last month.This filly is rounding her way back into shape. Should perform well today.TIMELESS DI - That last morning drill tells me this filly is set for a top race.Coa is back for another event today after racing atop this equine for the first time on March 25th and ought to know the ropes to this one a little better.You always have to be on the lookout for money generating jockey/handler combinations; we have one right here.
Vulnerable Contenders: #8 FREEDOM LASS (ML=3/1), #2 FAST FIONNUALA (ML=4/1), #7 FERLAND'S PROSPECT (ML=6/1)
FREEDOM LASS - This filly hasn't had any recent good fortune in short distance contests. I find it hard to bet on her in this race.FAST FIONNUALA - I'm predicting a less than stellar go out of her today.FERLAND'S PROSPECT - Didn't land in the top three on Jan 1st at Tampa Bay Downs. Followed it up with another lackluster effort.When looking at today's Equibase class figure, she will have to earn a much better speed figure than last time around the track to battle in this dirt sprint.
The Brain - TIMELESS DI - Some variables to consider. This filly is going on Lasix for the 2nd time. My calculation shows that any time Proctor does this, the animal is conditioned properly and ready to go.

MOMENTO - Trainer Danner moves this thoroughbred to a lower class level to face a lower class of horses. Look for a good effort in this race.KARATBARS - Gogas must have known this filly would run well at this track. Won her last race here on March 13th and now goes for two in a row.atop this animal on March 13th and Spieth is back again in the irons in today's contest.I always like to see a filly getting Lasix for the 2nd time. This one fits the bill.
Vulnerable Contenders: #5 MY SISTER'S KEEPER (ML=7/2), #8 SAMMY'S TOWN (ML=9/2), #2 LA BELLE DE COURSE (ML=6/1)
MY SISTER'S KEEPER - This horse likes to be there at the wire, but doesn't usually finish on top. Don't play in the top spot.This mare finished outside the top 3 on September 1st and wasn't close to winning in the last race either.SAMMY'S TOWN - She showed not much at all in the last clash.she's in all probability going to get cooked at the front.LA BELLE DE COURSE - Tough to like the downward spiraling flow (67/56/46) of speed ratings.
Hal - KARATBARS - This filly has the top speed figure last race with a very good 70. She is the top wager here.
STRAIGHT WAGERS: Putting our cash on #3 MOMENTO to win. Have to have odds of at least 5/2 or better though EXACTA WAGERS: Box [3,6] TRIFECTA WAGERS: Pass SUPERFECTA WAGERS: None

DANVILLE - Possibly a peak effort for this gelding today. Been getting closer and the end with each recent start.This jockey and handler have a beneficial return on investment when they combine forces.Have to make this gelding a win candidate; he comes off a good contest on March 18th.61-67-78 are last three speed ratings. Improving each time out is something he should do again right here.GLENN'S CAPER - Dropped in class in the last race, and keeps in that lower class in today's race. A good sign this horse is comfortable and ready to go.HUSBAND IN LAW - I think the shorter distance will help this gelding stay the distance.Like the way this gelding's finish positions keep getting better. That's a sure sign of improving form.using this rider/conditioner combination is a good move.I really like that latest outing on March 20th at Tampa Bay Downs where he ran first.Recent Equibase speed figures show powerful pattern of improvement.
Vulnerable Contenders: #6 NO REGRETS (ML=3/1), #10 TRAVEL AGENT (ML=7/2), #3 FINE SPIRIT (ML=4/1)
NO REGRETS - 3/1 is not enough of a value to take on most any horse that has run poorly in back to back races.Has tasted defeat as the favorite in back to back races. A repeat is probably in store.TRAVEL AGENT - The fourth place finish position in the last affair was not the best.hard to keep chasing this kind of 'hanger' horse.FINE SPIRIT - Not the best 'situation' in this affair.

JUST SHOOT ALREADY - Good return on investment for this jock and handler tandem.atop this thoroughbred on March 28th and Wales is right back in the irons this race.gelding has shown some speed. This shorter distance should be better for him.The last speed fig of 70 is the best last race fig in the group.gelding is a few starts into a return to racing here. Should give a good performance today.SIR SWAYSALOT - Have to make this gelding a solid contender; he comes off a nice effort on Mar 29th.This gelding was sharp enough to post a 'top two' workout recently. I think he's ready for today's event.Took a significant drop in class rating in the last race at Tampa Bay Downs. Returning to a similar level in this field. I'd expect a good performance.is ranked at the top in earnings per start. A powerful outing in this field can add to the lifetime earnings.ESOR - Was in a $16,000 Maiden Claiming race at Tampa Bay Downs in the last race. That race had a class rating of 72 and he is moving down right here in this race. A certain contender.
Vulnerable Contenders: #11 MOLOKAI NIGHT (ML=9/2), #3 NOT TELLING (ML=6/1), #9 ROW THE BOAT (ML=8/1)
MOLOKAI NIGHT - Tough to play any horse to turn things around if there is no wager value to taking the shot.Finished fourth in his most recent effort with a somewhat easily forgotten speed fig. When I look at today's class rating, it would take an improved performance to score after that in this group.NOT TELLING - Could be tough for this entrant to beat this field off of that last speed fig. Doubtful to improve enough to run a figure close enough to today's class figure, so put him on the vulnerable contenders list.ROW THE BOAT - This horse will probably need at least one more race after the lackluster showing following the very long layoff.When looking at today's Equibase class figure, he will have to notch a better rating than last time out to be competitive in this dirt sprint.

MATTY'S EXPRESS - This jockey/trainer duo has been producing a very profitable ROI, right at +197.This gelding is in nice form. Ended up first on Mar 18th.This horse may have too much power on the turf for the rest of the field. Coming out of the turn for home, he could put these away.A definite class advantage goes to this horse. A pretty good sign he will be very competitive in this grass race.CARAMELITO - This thoroughbred coming off a strong performance in the last thirty days is a win candidate in my book.VALIANT VIRTUE - With a big class drop in class rating points from his March 7th race at Tampa Bay Downs. Based on that info, I will give this one the advantage.I like the hard fact that this gelding's last speed rating, 90, is tops in this bunch.PUTIN ONLINE - This gelding is in top form right now. Ended up first last out and comes back promptly.
Vulnerable Contenders: #7 BRONX RUMBLE (ML=5/1), #1 OLYMPIC ROMP (ML=6/1), #2 FIRST HOMESTEAD (ML=6/1)
BRONX RUMBLE - This horse showed little last time out finishing fifth. No reason to expect any betterment in today's event.OLYMPIC ROMP - This racer ran a substandard speed rating last time around the track. He shouldn't improve and will likely lose in today's race running that number.FIRST HOMESTEAD - Caution must be used since bandages were used on February 26th.
The Turf Man - VALIANT VIRTUE - Investing on this noble animal is a smart move. He possesses the best speed figure in grass routes.

Finished third in the last race and comes back rapidly.Have to like the way Clark has raced this gelding back into shape off the layoff. Animal is well spotted in this sprint and I think he'll run well today.SACCO AND VANZETTI - Each one of this gelding's recent finish positions has been progressively better.That 76 fig this gelding garnered in his last contest tells me he's a chief player this time around.Minieri brings him back again. I propose you stick with this strong gelding.

TOWN CLASSIC - I took a look at this gelding's finishes. He's almost always in the top three.I am keen on that most recent effort on March 25th at Tampa Bay Downs where he finished second.It looks like Camacho had to come to know this gelding on Mar 25th when riding him for the initial time. Back aloft again today.This gelding's last speed rating is strong enough to triumph here, I'll bet on him back again this time out.I may not be the best handicapper in the world, but I know a good horse when I see one. Last three races before this one have been great for this horse. Based on that, should do well right here.SMALL FORTUNE - Jockey and trainer do well when they partner up. Gallardo and Baxter have been consistent together.Look at this pattern of improvement. 64/76/93 are the last three speed ratings.DIVINE AMBITION - This magnificent animal should be rocking and rolling in the lane.
Vulnerable Contenders: #6 ZORB (ML=3/1), #2 WEEKEND WIZARD (ML=8/1), #3 KITCHEN FIRE (ML=8/1)
ZORB - Not easy to play any horse in a sprint event at 3/1 when he hasn't shown any successful endeavors in sprints in the last 60 days.Speed kills. Plenty of zip in this race compromises this horse's chances.WEEKEND WIZARD - This gelding hasn't had any positive results in short distance contests in the last 60 days.KITCHEN FIRE - Difficult to play any horse to turn things around if there is no value to taking the chance.Hard to recommend any horse with dropping speed figures of 97/93/85.Finished fourth in his most recent performance with a common speed figure. When I look at today's class figure, it would take an improved performance to win after that in this bunch.

Finished third last time out and comes back rapidly.SLIGHTLY CRAFTY - Ran last time around the track against much better company at Oaklawn Park. The move down the ladder based on class should suit him well.You may want to disregard that last event at Oaklawn Park on the mud where he finished out of the money. Should do well in this event on a non-sloppy track.MOON IN THE SKY - This gelding is in fine condition. Finished fourth on April 4th.You should discount that last event at Oaklawn Park in the slop where he finished out of the money. Should do well in this race without the off-track conditions.While the finish was disappointing, this race horse made a good stretch move in the last race at Oaklawn Park.

This gelding's last figure is high enough to win here, I'll bet on him back again this time.The return on investment when Talamo and Deville get together is out of sight.UNION SALUTE - Richard rode this horse for the first time in the last race and comes right back today.Williams seems to have this gelding primed for a big effort.

Check out this one.CHOCTAW CHARLIE - I like to bet on this handicapping angle, a thoroughbred coming back off a solid outing within the last 30 days.A repeat of that most recent effort on Mar 28th where she garnered a rating of 77 looks high enough to triumph in this race.THE MARY ROSE - Garcia should be able to place this filly right behind the early pace.

#5 JUNIOR GILLIAM (ML=4/1)
#3 SUMMER REVOLUTION (ML=3/1)
JUNIOR GILLIAM - It looks like Delacruz had to come to know this gelding on April 3rd when riding him for the initial time. Back on again today.I like to bet on this angle, a racer coming back off a good effort within the last 30 days.Came home in quick time in the last race. A positive sign.SUMMER REVOLUTION - Trainer Asmussen moves this horse down in class ranks to face a weaker class today. Look for a sharp performance racing against these lower level horses.Last time he ran at this distance he recorded a fig good enough to win today's contest.This horse earns a lot of money per race around the track. At the top in this affair.
Vulnerable Contenders: #8 ACADEMY BAY (ML=9/2), #11 SACRED KIKI BIRD (ML=6/1), #14 PLATINUM NIGHTS (ML=6/1)
ACADEMY BAY - Pace makes the race. Tough for this speedball to be able to handle the suicidal fractions from the rest of this group.SACRED KIKI BIRD - This gelding showed little last time out.PLATINUM NIGHTS - Not easy to back any entrant in a sprint event if he hasn't hit the board in a sprint in the last couple of months.
Hal - JUNIOR GILLIAM - Comparing last speed ratings in this field, nobody beats this gelding. Tops in the field with a last speed rating of 89 on April 3rd.

#4 TOUCHING RAINBOWS (ML=12/1)
#8 ZIPP ON BY (ML=6/1)
PUTTHEGLASSDOWN - Changes tracks from last out at Laurel to here. Multiple wins on different racing tracks tell me this animal likes to switch it up, so that's a good sign.The 104 last race fig looks strong in the TrackMaster PPs.TOUCHING RAINBOWS - Has happened upon a good spot in today's event.ZIPP ON BY - All systems look good for this gelding. Last morning work, 2nd fastest of the day, shows he's fit and ready.Every now and then I take some time off, when I come back to the track I feel refreshed. I think it's the same with this gelding as he always seems to run well after a layoff.Changes tracks from last out at Churchill Downs to here. Multiple wins at different racing venues tell me this one likes to switch it up, so that's a good sign.
Vulnerable Contenders: #2 CURATE (ML=7/2), #3 EARLY MISCHIEF (ML=9/2), #7 BOYFRIEND MATERIAL (ML=6/1)
CURATE - This gelding hasn't had any recent favorable outcomes in short distance races. Tough to wager on him in this race.registered a pedestrian speed figure in the last race in a $62,500 Optional Claiming race on March 14th. Doubtful to see an improved performance off of that figure.EARLY MISCHIEF - There's speed, zip, and more early speed in this clash. Doesn't look good for this horse.BOYFRIEND MATERIAL - Never really did much at all in the last race on February 25th. Hard to bet on in today's event.

#10 ZAINO BOYZ (ML=8/5)
#7 MAN IN THE CAN (ML=8/1)
#6 TEMPT FATE (ML=7/2)
ZAINO BOYZ - The recent bullet 59.8 work should put this colt on track for today's effort.A little change in scenery has got to do this thoroughbred well. Reading the recent past performance lines, it seems like he likes to visit the winner's circle on different ovals.This colt's last speed rating recorded on March 14th is tops in last race speed figures.This colt is obviously on the improve with speed figs of 55, 84, 93 last 3 out.MAN IN THE CAN - Mount didn't end up on the board in last race, but did beat half the field, and made up ground down the homestretch. A slight improvement and this horse should be right there at the finish line.TEMPT FATE - Deville brings him back again. I recommend you stick with this strong colt.
Vulnerable Contenders: #2 CAPTAIN DON (ML=4/1)
CAPTAIN DON - The finish of eighth in the last race shows me that this horse may be getting out of condition.

#4 RULER OF THE NILE (ML=4/1)
#11 MIDNIGHT LAS VEGAS (ML=4/1)
SCRUTINIZER - Not much speed in this race other than this racer.This gelding is in fine physical condition. Finished second on Mar 28th.RULER OF THE NILE - Entered a $62,500 Optional Claiming race at Oaklawn Park in the last race and raced on a sloppy track finishing fifth. Expect better in this event.I just may give this one a shot. Should rebound off last race where he did run off the board, but was within five lengths at the finish line.Ranked the highest in (EPS) earnings per start. Another confirmation that this horse is classy.MIDNIGHT LAS VEGAS - This gelding is in fine physical condition, having run a nice race on Mar 28th, finishing first.This animal already beat the morning-line favorite last time around the track at Oaklawn Park.
