Race 2 - Claiming - 6.0f on the Dirt. Purse: $19000 Class Rating: 87

FOR FILLIES AND MARES THREE YEARS OLD AND UPWARD. THREE YEAR OLDS, 124 LBS.; OLDER, 126 LBS. NON-WINNERS OF A RACE SINCE DECEMBER 8 ALLOWED 2 LBS. A RACE SINCE NOVEMBER 8 ALLOWED 4 LBS. CLAIMING PRICE $10,000, IF FOR $9,000, ALLOWED 2 LBS.

RECOMMENDED CHOICES
	# 7 MADAME TIGER 9/2
# 6 MS TEEK 10/1
# 4 NOT LEAVING 3/1

I give my vote to MADAME TIGER here. Should keep the strong string of finishing positions intact this time around. With a formidable 79 average speed rating at the distance, seems well suited for today's competition. With better than average trips to the winner's circle, Chiappe should have this mare in excellent position to win the outing. NOT LEAVING - Is worth considering and may be a wager - strong speed figures (79 average) at today's distance and surface as of late. I think having Gonzalez ride this mare is a smart move.

Friday headliners: NCAAB Game of the Week + NBA Non Conf. Undefeated Totals System
The Friday Comp play in German Bundlesiga soccer action in on the over on Bayern Munich vs Borussia Monchengladbach game at 2:30 eastern. Top tier match here and it should be higher scoring as each of the last 6 in the series have had at least 3 goals. Borussia beat Munich here in 2019 and despite being 7th in the table can play with Munich. In their last game vs Mainz, Bayern trailing 2-0 caught fire and scored 5 goals in the last 40 minutes. Look for this game to play over the total. Rob V- GC Sports

1* Free Sharp Play on Hawaii +7 -115
The Rainbow Warriors (+7) are worth a look as a road dog against UC Riverside in Friday's Big West college hoops action. Hawaii has played just 2 games so far this season and haven't played since Dec. 19th. Not to mention the 2 games they have played have both come against non-DI opponents. I believe it has the Rainbow Warriors way undervalued here against the Highlanders. While UC Riverside is 3-1, they too have had a long layoff. Last time the Highlanders took the court was Dec. 10th. Last year Hawaii won 56-55 at UC Riverside as a mere 2.5-point dog and it wouldn't surprise me at all if they won this game. Play the Rainbow Warriors +7!
