COMMENTS: FRANKS ROCKETTE should be able to handle this group but has fallen just a little bit short in her last three races following a layoff. ACTING OUT won her last and should be better in her second off the bench. LIL TOOTSIE could improve in her second start off the bench and popped a strong her best late pace number in her last. JOYS ROCKET typically takes a major step forward in her second start off after off the sidelines and her last was good enough.

COMMENTS: FULSOME won his only race at Oaklawn with ease and has three wins in five races on a fast track. CEZANNE should be near his best in the third start after a layoff and has a bullet work in his last. RUNNIN RAY ran much better fractions and internal numbers for the first half mile of his last effort. NECKER ISLANDs jockey and trainer combo have won 13 of 28 together.

MARIAHS FORTUNE has a win and a second at the distance. YUUGIRI should improve in her second start after a layoff.

COMMENTS: WE THE PEOPLE will be forwardly placed against a lot of patient horses and might not have to go that fast. SECRET OATH likes to run midpack like almost every other in here. Traffic and pace are concerning. BARBER ROAD has won on the lead in the past but can also get it done from behind. KAVOD could be lone speed and get away with easy fractions and be hard to catch.

Keeneland Select Derby Prep Hotlists
Saturday, April 2, 2022
By Matt Shifman and Bob Ehalt

The $1,250,000 Arkansas Derby (G1) – Oaklawn Park - Race 12

The Arkansas Derby (G1) drew a field of nine including the filly Secret Oath who will take on the boys for the first time. The field will vie for a purse of $1.25 million and a share of the Derby qualifying points of 100-40-20-10 to the top four finishers.
(6) Secret Oath has found the right field to tackle the Kentucky Derby trail as a filly. It is a field that has only a few stakes wins between them. Trainer D. Wayne Lukas is a Hall of Famer for many reasons with one of them being the victory of the filly Winning Colors in the Derby. Secret Oath is in fine form right now using an impressive turn of foot to win a pair of stakes races at Oaklawn by open lengths. (9) We the People is unbeaten in two starts for Brad Cox and is the up and coming 3-year-old in this field where most of the others have had plenty of chances on the Derby trail already. His speed figures are better than most. (4) Doppelganger is now eligible for Derby points since being moved from Bob Baffert to his former assistant trainer Tim Yakteen. The blinkers come off following his second-place finish behind Forbidden Kingdom in the San Felipe (G2). (3) Barber Road ran in all three of Oaklawn’s Derby trail points races and has a pair of seconds and a third. Most recently he used a late rally to finish a half-length behind the winner in the Rebel (G2). Betting strategy: Win: 6. Exacta box: 3, 4, 6, 9. Trifecta box: 3, 4, 6, 9.

The $1 million Curlin Florida Derby Presented by Hill ‘n’ Dale Farms at Xalapa (G1), Gulfstream Park, Race 14
14th race – (2) Classic Causeway has emerged as a major Kentucky Derby contender. With his keen early speed and an inside post he may not look back here on a speed-favoring track. (3) Simplification looked good winning the Florida Derby by more than three lengths and should be the main rival in a well-matched field. (7) White Abarrio has enough early speed to challenge the top pick and will be dangerous here on his best try. (9) O Captain drew a bad post but has some late kick and should be passing horses in the stretch. With Joel Rosario aboard, he could figure in the exotics at this distance. Betting strategy: 2 to win, place. Exacta and trifecta box: 2-3-7-9.
The $600,000 Jeff Ruby Steaks (G3), Turfway Park, Race 12
12th race – (7) Tiz the Bomb does his best running on turf and synthetics and already owns a stakes win over the course. Seems well-spotted to make it two in a row here. (12) Blackadder makes his first start away from Bob Baffert and should be formidable despite the outside post. Like the top pick he was a stakes winner on synthetics in his last start. (1) Royal Spirit has yet to race on synthetics but has speed and has raced well enough on turf to be a factor from the rail. (2) Stolen Base was a neck behind the top pick last time and figures to be a main threat once again in this field. Betting strategy: 7 to win, place. Exacta and trifecta box: 1-2-7-12

Saturday, April 2, 2022

A : A preferred horse to watch B: Secondary horse to watch
*C: Went down 2 or more betting notches in the final 3 minutes and finished 1st through 3rd
*D: Went down 2 or more betting notches and finished 4^th or worse
* - 4 or more betting notches if 11-1 or more.
3rd race – (6) Beautiful Lover vied for the lead last time and tired in the stretch. A return to her usual running style should produce a winning effort. (2) Harajuku gets some added ground here and should relish it. (7) Family Way was a game second last time, beating the top two picks, and cannot be ignored. Betting strategy: 6 to win, place. Exacta box: 2-6-7.
6th race – (4) Fearless finally gets away from Speaker’s Corner and should prove best in this field. (6) Greatest Honour should benefit from his first race in a year and turn in a better effort here. (2) Laughing Boy has a nice turn of early speed and could hang around to the very end. Betting strategy: 4 to win, place. Exacta box: 2-4-6.
9th race – (5) Abaan (B) got away to an awful start last time which took away his trademark early speed. Can handle these with a clean trip. (3) Gufo is a multiple Grade 1 winner making his 2022 debut and merits plenty of attention. (6) Temple is in sharp form right now and cannot be ignored. Betting strategy: 5 to win, place. Exacta box: 3-5-6.
12th race – (7) Kathleen O. is undefeated after three starts and should be well-suited by the stretchout to two turns and the added distance. (5) Goddess of Fire was second in a Grade 2 stakes at Fair Grounds last time and looks like the one to fear. (1) Cancel This will benefit from a rail trip. (4) Running Legacy may appreciate the switch to dirt. Betting strategy: 7 to win, place. Exacta box: 5-7. Exactas: 5-7 over 1-4 and 1-4 over 5-7. Doubles: 1-4-5-7 with 2-3-5-9. Pick 3: 1-4-5-7 with 2-3-5-9 with 2-3-7-9.
13th race – (5) Gray’s Fable has not raced since August but hails from a barn that does well with layoffs and gets the nod here. (9) English Bee usually brings home a check and is dangerous here. (2) Scarlett Sky should be a threat in the final furlong. (3) Wolfie’s Dynaghost should welcome a return to turf. Betting strategy: 5 to win, place. Exacta box: 2-3-5-9. Doubles: 2-3-5-9 with 2-3-7-9.

Aqueduct Hotlist - April 2

April 1, 2022

Today’s NY Hot List races to watch – Saturday, April 2, 2022 at Aqueduct
By Matt Shifman and Bob Ehalt
Hot List Key:
A: A preferred horse to watch B: Secondary horse to watch
*C: Went down 2 or more betting notches and finished 1st through 3rd
*D: Went down 2 or more betting notches and finished 4^th or worst
* - 4 or more betting notches if 11-1 or more.
4^th race [NY, Md Sp Wt, 6F] – (4) True Empress (C) had the lead but got passed by a first-time starter to finish second after getting bet down from 3-1 to 9-5. (6) Liberty Flame was second in her debut at Belmont Park in October last year as a 2-year-old and now she returns with Lasix for her second start. (3) Steppin’ Hawk has been close to getting that first win in three tries this year for a low-profile trainer. (2) Mo Nighean Donn is a daughter of Laoban that makes her first career start for David Donk.
5^th race [Clm 16000 N2L, 6F] – (6) Sabreen set the pace and then finished second at this same level after breaking her maiden in her prior start for Steve Asmussen. (1) Stormi Cat Lady was a late-running second for trainer Gustavo Rodriguez. (7) Bella Domenica has been off since August and now drops to an appropriate level to contend for her second victory. (3) Appreciate has a trio of third-place finishes at this N2L level, all at Aqueduct.
6^th race [OC 62k/N2X, 1 mi] – (4) Sound Money (A) got off to a slow start, had to rush up to the lead, and then got caught late to finish third. (3) Captain Bombastic (D) was bet down from 7-1 to 5-1, pressed a very fast pace which was costly and he faded to fourth just a length behind the winner. (6) Lil Commissioner has been racing against better horses and now comes back from a couple of months off and runs for a tag. (2) Little Menace was claimed from three recent starts including his last race which he won for a $40,000 tag.
9^th race [NY, Md 40000, 6F] – (2) Vincent (B) had the lead in his debut and finished second. In his next start he was unruly before the race when dumped his rider and then broke through the gate losing any chance on that day. He does get a rider change after getting claimed from that bad day. (7) Ria’s Angel drops back down to this level at which he was second in his debut race back in January at Aqueduct. (1) On the Hill was second when he dropped from a maiden special weight to the $25,000 level and now moves to a spot in between. (3) Tonalistic debuted back in May at Delaware Park against open company.

Best bets: True Empress (4^th); Sabreen (5^th). Best value: Sound Money (6^th); Vincent (9^th).
Saturday Pick 3 Special --
The Saturday Special $1 Pick 3 covers races 4 – 6

[Can'tPickAWinner]

Keeneland Select Pick of the Day | April 2, 2022

April 1, 2022

Race 12 at Turfway Park | Saturday April 2 | Post Time 6:23 PM Eastern
Jeff Ruby Steaks – Grade 3 | Purse $600,000 | One Mile and One Eighth | Three Year Olds

Four weeks ago in the precursor to this race, the John Battaglia Memorial Stakes, Tiz the Bomb (7) prevailed by a neck over Stolen Base (3). Although 10 new shooters emerge for this race, the result may be no different because both colts are making their third starts off layoffs since last year and continue to improve. That’s not to say there’s no profit opportunity in the field as there will be quite a few horses going off at odds of 10/1 or more which can have a say in the outcome and make for profitable exotic wagers.
Stolen Base (2) will get slight preference over Tiz the Bomb (7) this time around, he adds blinkers. Whereas Tiz the Bomb made a nice move on the turn to go from fourth to a neck in front with an eighth of a mile to run, Stolen Base was making up ground with every stride in the final yards. The extra eighth of a mile as well as new blinkers to perhaps help him to race closer in the early stages are two reasons I think he can turn the tables on Tiz the Bomb. Tiz the Bomb had a stellar two year old campaign culminating with a 12^th to second rally in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf. He tried dirt for his three year old debut and only proved he hated it when seventh, but on the all-weather surface for the first time last month Tiz the Bomb returned to his top turf form from last year. With two strong workouts since raced he should run well and we will absolutely use him on exacta and trifecta tickets played but he will be a poor win bet anywhere near his 2 to 1 starting odds.
Next we have two horses with potential in Tawny Port (5) and Blackadder (12). Tawny Port showed a LOT of promise first time out winning at a mile at Turfway Park, a very tough question to ask a first time starter. He rallied from 11^th of 12 to do that and showed it to be no fluke when coming back five weeks later to win again. Like Tiz the Bomb, he tried dirt last out (in the Risen Star Stakes) and it only proved he doesn’t like the surface. He’s worked very well since then and with continued improvement since his January 7 local win he could post the mild upset, opening at 6 to 1. Blackadder opens at 15/1 which is odd considering he is the ONLY horse in the field to have won on all-weather at this nine furlong trip. He rallied from seventh to win the El Camino Real Derby in February, his second win in a row around two turns, and he continues to improve. He is one of the recently transferred horses from the Baffert barn so he can earn Road to the Derby points here when previously he could not.
For the trifecta, I’ll toss in Rich Strike (4), Red Run (8) and Constitutionlawyer (11), the latter opening at 50 to 1. Rich Strike rallied from 11^th to fourth in the Battaglia and was just a half-length from third, so has a shot to pass a lot of horses in the late stages. Red Rum won the Texas Turf Mile Stakes at the end of January and is bred to run on this surface BUT Asmussen has a low 1 for 44 record over the last five years in all-weather routes. Constitutionlawyer broke his maiden at this nine furlong trip on dirt rather easily one before last in New York then ran 11^th in the Withers. His dam produced an all-weather winner and his sire (Constitution) has had a LOT of nine furlong stakes winners as three year olds the past few years, such as Tiz the Law, so he cannot be totally counted out. I will probably make a token $2 across the board on him so as not to be kicking myself late if something happens and he wins and pays $100.
Win bets:
Stolen Base (2) should be bet to win at odds of 5 to 2 or higher.
Tawny Port (5) should be bet to win at odds of 7 to 2 or higher.
Blackadder (12) can be considered for a win bet at odds of 5 to 1 or higher.
A win/place bet for at least a token amount like $2 may be considered for Constitutionlawyer (11) at odds of 15 to 1 or higher.
Trifectas: (which are preferred over exactas since the top key horses are low odds)
Stolen Base (2) over Tawny Port (5), Tiz the Bomb (7) and Blackadder (12) over Rich Strike (4), Tawny Port (5), Tiz the Bomb (7), Red Run (8), Constitutionlawyer (11) and Blackadder (12).
Tiz the Bomb (7) over Stolen Base (2), Tawny Port (5), and Blackadder (12) over Rich Strike (4), Tawny Port (5), Tiz the Bomb (7), Red Run (8), Constitutionlawyer (11) and Blackadder (12).
Exactas: (just $1 or $2 is okay here)
Tawny Port (5) and Blackadder (12) over Rich Strike (4), Tawny Port (5), Blackadder (12), Stolen Base (2), Red Run (8), Constitutionlawyer (11) and Tiz the Bomb (7). (This is to take advantage of the higher odds on Tawny Port and Blackadder)

NHL | Panthers vs Devils

Play on: OVER 7 -100

Scott "The Bulldog" Rickenbach Saturday NHL Free Pick OVER 7 in New Jersey Devils vs Florida Panthers @ 12:35 ET - The Devils off an 8-1 loss which was the 16th time last 24 games in which a New Jersey game has totaled 7 or more goals. Now the Devils are back on home ice after getting destroyed at Boston and I do expect New Jersey to score better here but the Devils problems will be at the other end of the ice in this one. NJ will be unable to stop the highest scoring team in the league. Indeed, the Panthers are in town and enter this game off a rare shutout win. Florida scored 4 goals which is normal for them as that is their average but the shutout was a rarity and certainly unlikely to be repeated. The Panthers entered that game with 19 of their last 25 games having totaled 7 or more goals. More of the same expected here. Free Pick OVER 7 in New Jersey Devils
