Al Cimaglia: Cal Expo Pick 4 Analysis

December 4, 2020 | By Al Cimaglia
Tonight, the feature at Cal Expo comes in Race 9, the Alan Horowitz Final with a $20,000 purse. The 0.20 Pick 4 begins in Race 8. The sequence has a 16% takeout and it will be my focus.

Comments and selections below are based on a fast track.

Race 8

1-Flash Me Baby (5/2)-Has raced from the back in both starts off the bench. Roland takes the lines on this 4-year-old mare he trains. Gets post relief and looks like a player.
2-Roaring Home (6-1)-Takes a drop after a needed start versus $6k claimers from the 10-hole. Gets a ++ driver change in Svendsen and was facing much better at Haw. May finally take a picture in 2020, currently 0-23.
6-Future Delight (9/2)-Not Plano's choice but Kennedy is no slouch and due to get hot. Dropped to the bottom level in last and got on the engine from the 7-hole and missed by only a head. This will be the 3rd start off the bench, should be tighter and could be overlooked at the windows.

Race 9

1-E R Vincent (5-1)-Got on the point early on, set a soft pace and didn't look back. Hoosier invader won CalX debut and best to respect chances for another picture.
2-Skyway Raider (9/2)-Corbin trainee followed a similar script as #1 but the pace was lively and was strong through the wire. This will be the 2nd start after a claim and looks like a major player.
3-Western Devil (15-1)-Plano steers for the Roland barn. Last week, broke slowly and sat at the back of the pack turning for home but then paced hard to the wire. Plano may leave and has enough gate speed to be put in play early.
6-Wild Again (3-1)-Roland steers his pupil in 3rd start off the bench. Should be in the mix but will need the right trip from out here and might be over bet.

Race 10

2-Fox Valley B Gump (3-1)-Was able to win last week at 9/5 with a 56.1 back half. Had been facing better and looks like a repeat is a distinct possibility but $3k claimers are often inconsistent so will include others.
3-Fly Away (6-1)-11-year-old needed last, was wide down the lane and was no match for #2. Plested trainee is usually in the mix at the wire versus this class and will look for a better try tonight.
8-Lincoln (6-1)-No one in this field has much gate speed and Kennedy should be able to get a decent seat. Veteran doesn't win often but this is the 3rd start off the bench, a soft spot and the price should be right to take a swing.

Race 11

5-Brighten Your Life (5/2)-Makes 2nd start since August and drops to a spot to shine. Usually races in the FM Open class and just missed last week versus the same. Should be ready for a picture if minds manners.
7-Dancingonthesand (6-1)-Comes off a sharp qualifier on 11/28, went the 2nd half in 56.2 and the last quarter in 27.1. Hasn't won in 2020 (0-10) but was facing Open company. Doesn't need to be fully dialed in to beat this crew.

0.20 Pick 4

1,2,6/1,2,3,6/2,3,8/5,7
Total Bet=$14.40

Jeff Siegel's Gulfstream Analysis/Wagering Strategies - 12/4/20

December 4, 2020
Jeff Siegel’s Gulfstream Park Analysis & Wagering Strategies
Friday, December 4, 2020
*

Specifically designed for the rolling exotic player, Jeff Siegel’s “Daily Analysis and Wagering Strategies” isolates those horses that should be included in daily doubles, pick-3s, pick-4s, pick-5s, and the pick-6.
*
The selections are posted at 6:00 a.m. and updated later in the morning to reflect late scratches and changes.
*
*
Grade Descriptions: Grade A=Highest degree of confidence; Grade B=Solid Play. Grade C=Least preferred or pass; Grade X=probable winner but likely at odds too short to play.

RACE 1: Post: 12:35 ET Grade: C+
Use: 3-Twirling Fire; 4-Market Development; 8-Todaystheday

Forecast: In a maiden claiming turf sprint for juveniles, the known element looks ordinary so let’s go with a fresh face. Market Development, from the W. Ward barn, brought $60,000 as a yearling and shows up in a $25,000 seller to begin his career, not exactly an encouraging sign, but the son of Maclean’s Music has trained okay on grass at Palm Meadows in recent week so he should be fit enough and perhaps good enough to score at first asking for a trainer that hits with a superb 29% with first-time starters. For protection, you may also want to include on your rolling exotic ticket Twirling Fire and Todaystheday. The former is a Monmouth Park shipper by way of Tampa Bay Downs and has enough early speed to be dangerous at this five furlong trip, while the latter tries the lawn and softer company for a high percentage outfit and could easily be better than shown.
*
*
RACE 2: Post: 1:04 ET Grade: X
Use: Pass/No Play

Forecast: This maiden claiming $12,500 sprint for older horses is inscrutable and is best left alone. The logical top pick Makingalegacy is winless in 29 career starts, and that tells you all you need to know about the others. In a race in which nothing would surprise us, rolling exotic players can spread as deeply as their budget allows. We’ll pass.
*
*
RACE 3: Post: 1:33 ET Grade: B-
Use: 2-Josefa; 5-Galileos Ballerina; 8-Antigone

Forecast: Antigone returns to turf and has form in California last year on grass that makes her the one to beat in this restricted (nw-2) $16,000 two-turner for fillies and mares. With patient handling, the daughter of Carpe Diem should be capable of producing the last run. Galileos Ballerina, in her third start off a layoff, drops to her lowest level and is another that should make her presence felt from off the pace. Josefa switches to P. Lopez, is comfortably drawn inside, has a prior win over the local lawn and projects to be close up (maybe even on the lead) throughout. All three should be included in rolling exotic play.
*
*
RACE 4: Post: 2:03 ET Grade: B-
Use: 2-Dream d’Oro; 3-Strong Ending; 7-Uncaptured King

Forecast: Here’s another spread race, this one a restricted (nw-2) $16,000 claiming sprint for older horses. Dream d’Oro has two career wins, both over the local main track, and shortens up a half-furlong after a respectable pace-setting runner-up effort at GPW in late October. Not much more will be needed today. Strong Ending was overmatched in starter allowance company last time out but isn’t today, and his speed figures over this main track during the summer makes him the one to fear most. Uncaptured King, comfortably drawn outside, is another with a pair of local wins on his resume and should have every chance to outrun his morning line of 10-1 with a good stalking trip.
*
*
RACE 5: Post: 2:36 ET Grade: B-
Use: 6-Truly; 11-Carmellia Gal

Forecast: Truly finished in the money in each of her previous six starts prior to being stopped on and the daughter of Will Take Charge, in her first outing since April, seems properly spotted by a barn that has good stats in a limited sample with comebackers. The work tab at the Classic Mile training center in Ocala is brief, but we’re going to assume she’s fit and ready, and she does have back speed figures that are better than par for this maiden $20,000 level. Camellia Gal returns to grass after a couple of off-the-turf outings and though poorly drawn does have form that makes her a contender. We’re expecting her to be on or near the lead throughout despite her outside draw. We’re try to survive and advance using just these two.
*
*
RACE 6: Post: 3:06 ET Grade: C+
Use: 3-True Identity; 8-Exxtop

Forecast: Though beaten as the favorite in a slightly softer maiden claimer at GPW, Exxtop deserves a chance to make amends in this modest extended sprint for juveniles, though at 8/5 on the morning line he’ll not offer a whole lot of wagering value. The son of Exaggerator projects to settle just off the leaders and then have every chance to seal the deal from the quarter pole home. P. Lopez stays aboard. True Identity, in the frame in his last pair though considerably slower on speed figures than our top pick, is gradually improving and should at least hit the board again.
*
*
RACE 7: Post: 3:36 ET Grade: C+
Use: 1-Shining Through; 3-Sharetheblame; 5-Light Fury; 6-Cark

Forecast: This messy $20,000 turf claimer requires a considerable spread in rolling exotic play. We’ll go four-deep and hope that’s sufficient. Light Fury won his only previous turf outing with authority over the local lawn two runs back, and with this return to the sod in his first start since mid-September the Wicked Strong gelding should fire his best shot for a new barn that is capable with layoff runners. The stable’s “go-to” rider M. Vasquez takes the call. Cark, returning off a 10 week vacation, has good tactical speed and should have every chance from a pace-stalking position. His numbers aren’t great but at least they’re going in the right direction. Sharetheblame, quite popular at the claim box of late, goes for the A. Sano barn (22%, flat-bet profit with this angle) and has a prior win over the Gulfstream Park turf course. He’s a horse without at a definitive style but has back numbers that make him dangerous. Shining Through is just 1-for-18 but his speed figures are comparatively strong and with some help up front and good racing luck he looks like the best of the deep closers.
*
*
RACE 8: Post: 4:06 ET Grade: B-
Use: 2-Warrior’s Pride; 5-Tiger

Forecast: Warrior’s Pride earned a giant speed figure breaking his maiden at GPW last month and this Poseidon’s Warrior colt looks quick enough score right back in this allowance optional claiming affair for 2-year-olds. The low percentage connections and today’s extra half-furlong will keep the price honest. Tiger has modest speed figures but project to enjoy an ideal pace-prompting trip outside and have his chance when the pressure is turned out. He’ll race without blinkers for the first time in his five race career so we’re expecting rating tactics to be employed.
*
*
RACE 9: Post: 4:36 ET Grade: B
Use: 1-Flowmotion; 5-Rhythmia

Forecast: Flowmotion, a five-time winner over the Gulfstream Park turf course, lands the good rail and projects to enjoy an ideal ground-saving, stalking trip in this entry-level middle distance turf event for older horses. The J. Cibelli barn is terrific with layoff runners (28%, powerful ROI), so in his first start since early August the veteran gelding should be hard to beat. When last seen three months ago Rhythmia produced a nice score vs. softer state-bred foes over the local lawn that earned a career top speed figure, and if he returns to that form (and we suspect he will) the S. Joseph, Jr.-trained gelding should be running on strongly late.
*
*
RACE 10: Post: 5:06 ET Grade: C+
Use: 2-Positive Phil; 5-Small Hope; 12-Lets Play Hardball

Forecast: The finale is a chaotic grass grab bag for restricted (nw-3) $20,000 claimers. Nothing would surprise us. Positive Phil projects to enjoy a good stalking, ground-saving trip and though moving up from the $12,500 level has numbers that make him dangerous in this league. The son of Paynter also has a prior win over the course and this jockey-trainer team (E. Jaramillo/J. Avila) always has been formidable. Small Hope always has preferred to run second or third rather than win but the Delaware Park invader attracts hot-riding P. Lopez and is a strong fit on figures. Lets Play Hardball is drawn much farther out than we’d prefer but shows a healthy work/race pattern for M. Maker, picks up L. Saez, and has run well over this course in the past. If he can negotiate any kind of decent trip this Constitution gelding will be the one to fear most.

December 4, 2020: Stronach 5 Picks

December 3, 2020 | By Jeremy Plonk

Last week’s Stronach 5 paid $68,683 to 7 winning tickets, and the nation’s best bet returns this Friday, December 4 with another potentially lucrative sequence. Three races from opening week at Gulfstream Park’s Championship Meet join a pair from the Maryland Jockey Club at Laurel Park. The $1 base wager has a low 12% takeout, insuring hefty value for those who take it down.

handicapper Jeremy Plonk adds his comments and possible inclusions, formulating recommended tickets based on the app and human input.

LAUREL RACE 8 (3:49PM ET) // OPTIONAL CLAIMING // 6 FURLONGS

5 – Phantom Ro (30% W)
8 – Tale of E Dubai (16% W)
3 – Bull Shark (13% W)
4 – Nova Boy (12% W)

Notable: The 30% win rate and 14-point spread for Phantom Ro both are most in today’s Stronach 5 sequence. It could be a bold single to start, according to 1/ST BET, as Phantom Ro also has won 3 of 5 starts at Laurel Park. Bull Shark offers an interesting alternative for a jockey-trainer combination successful in Maryland this year. Tale of E Dubai changes trainers to a less successful barn since being claimed.

GULFSTREAM RACE 8 (4:06PM ET) // OPTIONAL CLAIMING // 6 FURLONGS

5 – Tiger (29% W)
6 – Paladio (27% W)
3 – Carson City Kid (16% W)
2 – Warrior’s Pride (12% W)

Notable: The 29% win rate is second-highest in today’s Stronach 5, though the 2-point spread among the top pair of choices is the narrowest in the sequence. This may be a two-deep situation based on 1/ST BET. Tiger should be rolling early and hoping to ration his speed will be leading jockey Luis Saez. Carson City Kid figures to press the early issue for respected connections, but has some distance questions. Paladio actually gets the best set-up to finish, along with price player Famous Gent.

LAUREL RACE 9 (4:18PM ET) // CLAIMING // 1 MILE

6 – Cassey’s Girl (27% W)
1 – Embrace a New Day (15% W)
9 – Creative Alibi (15% W)
3 – Lady Macho (11% W)

Notable: The 12-point spread from first to second choice is second-highest in today’s Stronach 5, and comes with a juicy 6-1 morning line proposition in Cassey’s Girl. Expected favorite Lady Macho doesn’t get respect from the algorithm off her Finger Lakes form, but those shippers dropping from allowance to Laurel claimers have had solid success in recent years. The Boss of You doesn’t rate highly by the app, but appears to be a solid fit on the drop in class. If 1/ST BET is right, this is a great place to take a stand and separate those with faith from the pack.

GULFSTREAM RACE 9 (4:36PM ET) // OPTIONAL CLAIMING // 1 1/16 MILES (TURF)

8 – Myamanoi (23%W)
1 – Flowmotion (19% W)
4 – Jolting Joe (14% W)
3 – Starship Aramis (11% W) *main track only*

Notable: The 23% win rate for Myamanoi is lowest among all top choices in today’s Stronach 5. This appears a good race by the numbers and on paper to spread your tickets. Myamanoi was a good fourth over this course in the Dania Beach Stakes this spring and lures local leading rider Luis Saez. Flowmotion has strong local form for high-percentage connections.

GULFSTREAM RACE 10 (5:06PM ET) // CLAIMING // 1 1/16 MILES (TURF)

5 – Small Hope (26% W)
13 – Scar (20% W) *main track only*
9 – Captain D (12% W)
12 – Let’s Play Hardball (8% W)

Notable: Top choice Small Hope’s trainer Kent Sweezey has been on a roll in South Florida the past few months, and won both races he entered opening day Wednesday. With 1/ST BET’s second choice Scar entered for main-track only, there’s a wide swath between Small Hope and the rest. Morning line favorite Let’s Play Hardball figures to be a major underlay based on the algorithm, and won easily last out on dirt while now going back to turf. Longshot seekers give Captain D (20-1 ML) a longer look for an exotics share.

5,8 with 5,6 with 6,3,8 with ALL with 5 = $96

Brian W. Spencer's Daily Picks

Laurel Park - Race #3

#6 Royal Thunder	Forward player has been a decent fit with this kind in recent starts, and he'll probably have a go of it on the front end with these. Chance.
#5 Wye Mumbo	He'll probably get a bit overbet with these off the big run last time out, but he's stepping up to try winners for the first time and probably won't have an easy lead to himself again like he did last out.
#1 Fast Cash	Steps up off the claim, but the recent form is pretty reliable, and he should be able to work out a trip tracking the pace from the inside.
Race Summary	Royal Thunder should be in the mix from the start here, and if he doesn't take too much heat in the early going, he might stick around at a fair price.

Laurel Park - Race #6

#4 Positive Force	Meets a couple of decent pace players in here, and she has the style to land a perfect, spying trip from close range while the pace players battle it out.
#3 Suzysellsseashells	Owns a win over the track and exits an easy score at Charles Town. Not sure she's getting quite the amount of pace she needs to get the job done here, though.
#6 Hydra	Speed should be in the mix from the start, and she does own a mild rating gear that could prove useful if the other speeds want to knock heads in the early going.
Race Summary	Positive Force should be able to get the right kind of trip with these, and she has been reliable when facing similar in recent starts.

Laurel Park - Race #8

#2 Odds On	Should offer a fair price here for the 0-for connections, and he has a bit of versatility with running lines that stack up nicely here after the win last time out.
#3 Bull Shark	He has been facing some better groups than this in recent starts, and he should be in line for a really nice run of things from midpacck.
#4 Nova Boy	Didn't miss by much when chasing the top choice last time out, and he'll move into another capable barn off the claim today.
Race Summary	Odds On has a jockey that is 0-for-32 at the meet for a barn that is 0-for-24 here, but he actually has a decent claim on this one. If he can hold that form from the win last time out, he's in the mix with these.

Frank Carulli's Daily Picks

Harrah's Philadelphia - Race #1

#5 ROAR OF APPROVAL	Chased fave through fast splits, looms the target in second start back.
#7 MYSTERY ISLAND	Plays to a steady beat, as 22/4-5-6 record this year indicates.
#8 SPICEBOMB	Held third as fave in fast-paced race, moves inside out.
Race Summary	Roar Of Approval chased the fleet-footed favorite to the stretch before fading. He can go a longer way up front in his second start after five months away. Play 5-7 and 5-8 exactas.

Freehold - Race #6

#3 SWEET YOU	Should get right setup for repeat victory, today’s Best Bet.
#5 VINTAGE GAL	Set all the fractions, ran second against top one, figures to have front-end company.
#1 FEAR MY SHADOW	Finished second in 7 of 22 starts this year, draws rail again.
Race Summary	Sweet You sat a pocket trip and surged late past pace-setting Vintage Gal. She should get a livelier flow today and stands a good chance to win again. Play 3-1 and 3-5 exactas.

Meadowlands - Race #4

#1 IMPACTER	Deceptively good try off the claim, strong play from rail.
#9 CASINO CUTIE IT	Mare shipped in, ran second at 62-1 and has plenty of back-class to summon.
#6 STENHOUSE HANOVER	Sustained first-over rally but lost in three-horse photo finish.
Race Summary	Impacter improved for his new connections and ran well enough to win. But he was compromised by poor early position, slowed by dead cover on the final turn and rallied widest in the stretch. Play 1-6 and 1-9 exactas.

**Can'tPickAWinner** · 12-04-2020, 05:51 AM

Jerry Shottenkirk's Daily Picks

Gulfstream Park - Race #8

#6 Paladio	Lands in an ideal spot for his late move; will get a solid pace in front of him and should be able to pass late.
#5 Tiger	Tired in his last two at GPW and gets Saez aboard; could be the one to catch.
#1 Famous Gent	Rallied mildly for third at GPW last out and broke his maiden here in June; tried stakes company but ran well in a similar level as this.
Race Summary	Paladio finished well from just off the pace in his last two wins and will follow fast fractions here.

Gulfstream Park - Race #9

#4 Jolting Joe	Rallied from far back and finished second in a stakes race at GPW last out; will bring the late heat and can run them down in this spot.
#5 Rhythmia	Got an ideal trip and won going away late time and lost a three-horse photo two back; brings in good form and can be around for the finish.
#8 Myamanoi	Has taken on strong company and has been off since September; has successful connections and fits here.
Race Summary	Jolting Joe comes from far back and may not have to close as much today; has competed well in good races.

Gulfstream Park - Race #10

#12 Lets Play Hardball	Crushed N2L company last time and takes a step up; gets Saez aboard and can be in the mix front the outset.
#7 Time for Trouble	Deep closer has won two of his last four and will make a run through the final quarter.
#2 Positive Phil	Closed well, took a brief lead in the stretch and lost a photo for the win last time; showed improvement from previous races and continued progress will make him tough here.
Race Summary	Lets Play Hardball has the speed to get into a good position from the outside and can rush into contention not long after the start; good chance for a repeat win.

DASH FOR CORONITAS looks strong to best this field. The Equibase Speed Figure of 77 from her most recent affair looks quite good in here. Sharp rider with conditioner numbers make this horse a sharp selection. MISS FAST ELYSE - Looks very good to be on or close to the front end at the first call. Ran a very solid last race. PAINT ME PATRIOT - Carrizales and Hernandez have a strong win percent together.

Fair Grounds - Race #8 - Post: 4:23pm - Maiden Claiming - 8.0 furlongs on the Turf. Purse: $18,000 Class Rating: 71

Rating:

#10 CHINATOWN NANCY (ML=6/1)
#6 WAR FALCON (ML=4/1)
#5 MS SATCH MO (ML=5/1)

CHINATOWN NANCY - Finished off the board last out at Remington Park, but was within five lengths of the winner. Opening at 6/1 makes me think she's got a chance. Ranked numero uno in earnings per start. Another notice that this equine is the class of the race. WAR FALCON - This trainer brings horses to the grass in shape and ready to win, winning over 20 pct of the time under similar conditions. Filly made a nice late run going 5 furlongs on November 4th. I have to like her chances stretching out today. MS SATCH MO - Don't throw this animal out due to her last race at Indiana Downs where she finished seventh on a track listed as good. Expect much better today. Amoss adds Lasix for the second time today. Should help right here.

Vulnerable Contenders: #4 KLAYTON'S KANDY (ML=5/2), #12 MASKED MANDATE (ML=8/1),

KLAYTON'S KANDY - This animal hasn't been around in either of her last couple of races. MASKED MANDATE - The sixth place result in the last event was not the best.

GUEST COMMENTARY: The Brain - WAR FALCON - Beware of this filly. Cox gives her Lasix for the 2nd straight time. My extensive database says this horse should perform well today.

STRAIGHT WAGERS:	Have to go with #10 CHINATOWN NANCY on the win end if we get at least 3/1 odds
EXACTA WAGERS:	10 with [5,6]
TRIFECTA WAGERS:	Box [5,6,10] Total Cost: $6
SUPERFECTA WAGERS:	[5,6,10] with [5,6,10] with [3,5,6,8,10] with [3,5,6,8,10] Total Cost: $36

Event: (307285) Bellarmine at (307286) Duke
Sport/League: CBB
Date/Time: December 4, 2020 7PM EST
Play: 1H Duke -16.5 (-115)
307286 Bellarmine at Duke
First game of the season for new Atlantic Sun entrant Bellarmine, who must face the Duke dynasty right out of the game. This is a young team with no seniors on the roster. Overall 8 of the expected players on this roster are underclassmen.
Duke has had a habit of building a big first half lead, and then coasting down the stretch with bench players. Off a home loss to Michigan State, we see that happening here. Lay this first half number with the Dukies.
PLAY DUKE FIRST HALF

Race 8 - Maiden Claiming - 5.5f on the Dirt. Purse: $20000 Class Rating: 80

FOR MAIDENS, THREE YEARS OLD AND UPWARD. THREE YEAR OLDS, 122 LBS.; OLDER, 124 LBS. CLAIMING PRICE $20,000.

RECOMMENDED CHOICES
	# 12 UNION DANCE 7/2
# 11 BARHOPSKY 10/1
# 1 GIT ON YOUR PULPIT 6/1

UNION DANCE is my choice. The winning percentage shown by horses entered by Tamayo running at this distance are the best in this field. Strong average Equibase Speed Figures in dirt sprint races make this equine a solid contender. BARHOPSKY - His 71 average has this gelding with among the most respectable speed figures for this race. When Morfin uses Guce there's a good chance for winnings. GIT ON YOUR PULPIT - Could beat this group of horses in this race given the 80 speed figure earned in his last outing.

Brandon Siefken

Event: (825) South Dakota State at (826) Bradley
Sport/League: CBB
Date/Time: December 4, 2020 8PM EST
Play: Total Over 137.5 (-110)
My numbers have this 74-72 Bradley, a total of 146. That is a 9.5 point discrepancy which is enough to make a value bet. There are a few non-math factors that give me a little trepidation here. Namely the fact that Bradley has really good defense, but there is enough value to bet a half unit since the numbers are so off. Bet one half unit on the Over 137.5 in this one.
