Frank Carulli's Daily Picks
Northfield Park - Race #5
Picks Notes
#2 REDWOOD HANOVER Drops, could hold tactical edge, last try on fast track good enough.
#5 ROCKIN THE BOYS A Rallied into solid pace, distant second behind 1-to-9 runaway.
#6 THINK BIGGER Winless a long time but exiting fast races, use in gimmicks.
Race Summary Redwoods Hanover’s steady diet of ‘70’ speed figures translates well at this level. He is reunited with Sugg and can use his speed well from post 2. Play a 2-5-6 exacta box.
Yonkers - Race #8
Picks Notes
#3 J A T O Early break proved costly two back, 10-year-old loves to win.
#5 WILD AND CRAZY GUY Led by city block against top one but got caught.
#1 STONEBRIDGE GAMBLE Gamely repelled challenges to prevail as the favorite.
Race Summary J A T O, no factor from post 8 in a fast-paced trot last week, recovered well from an early break but finished out of the money in the same spot two starts ago. He ranged up behind the dueling leaders on the final turn, tipped 3-wide for the stretch drive and finished willingly in a crowded finish. Play 3-1 and 3-5 exactas.
Northfield Park - Race #1
Picks Notes
#2 FAWN DE TOUCH Bothered by breaker, takes on mostly boys, can atone at better price.
#8 GOLDEN GENES Led long way from outer post in ‘amateur’ race, earned big number.
#1 SEAL SNIPER Had dead aim on odds-on winner while 3-wide in stretch, flattened out late.
Race Summary Fawn De Touch appeared ready to launch a rally on the final turn but she was bothered by a breaker and went off stride herself. She upset the winner of the race, Fashion Chocolate, in the race prior and draws a better post. Bet to win and place.
