                  AI Picks: Gulfstream Mandatory Rainbow 6 Payout | Sunday

                  April 2, 2022 | By Jeremy Plonk

                  Sunday’s Gulfstream Park card features a mandatory payout in the 20-cent Rainbow 6 pool that boasts more than $700,000 in carryover money. Expect a pool of more than $4 million trying to take down the final sequence of this year’s Championship Meet.

                  To assist your handicapping, top selections provided by the 1/ST BET app measure each contender against the 10 leading factors for each race. The 1/ST BET app looks at 52 handicapping factors and more than 200,000 past races to determine its AI selections.

                  You can use the automated handicapping factors, or create your own factor filters to incorporate angles you prefer. Full-card selections can be found in the 1/ST BET app. We’ve included the official track morning line odds with each runner.

                    Aqueduct Picks: Velvet Sister tough to beat on April 3
                    By J.N. Campbell


                    Aqueduct Racetrack Picks - Sunday, April 3, 2022

                    Race 1: 6-3-5-2
                    Race 2: 3-5-1/1A-2
                    Race 3: 1-5-6-2
                    Race 4: 5-4-2-1
                    Race 5: 6-2-8-6
                    Race 6: 6-5-2-4
                    Race 7: 5-4-6-2
                    Race 8: 4-6-1-2
                    Race 9: 9-6-4-7
                    **Most Likely: Ice Kreem #9 (Race 9)**
                    **Best Value: Diva Banker #5 (Race 7)**

                    Most Likely Winner: (Race 9: Ice Kreem #9, 3/1):

                    Trainer Rudy Rodriguez always sends out some stout runners, and this filly by Keen Ice is no exception. The 3-yr-old got her debut out of the way back on 26 Feb., and even though she missed the board, I like her coming back into the same spot. A strong rider in Trevor McCarthy gets the call, and I am expecting this filly to break her maiden … Those works of hers look solid for Lioni Racing Stable.

                    Wagering Recommendation: $100 Win, #9



                    Off-the-Pace Play of the Day: (Race 7: Diva Banker #5, 8/1):

                    Here is a 6-yr-old mare that belongs in this group, and she just needs a solid set of fractions that she can control up front for trainer Ray Handal. He owns this one, and as a claiming trainer he can compete with the best of them. His stable continues to churn out winners, and I would not count out the ability of Jalon Samuel. This young man is getting better and better, and Handal trusts him to get the job done! The price will be right at 8/1, or it could be even higher.

                    Wagering Recommendation: $100 Bankroll, Graduated Wager WPS #5 ($10-W, $15-P, $75-S)



                    Spotlight Race of the Day: (Race 8: Dirt, 6F, ALLW72kn1x, F&M 3+ NY Breds):

                    The “spotlight” on this Sunday will be on a mix of female runners that will be burner down the backstretch. From my vantage point, HOF trainer Steve Asmussen has the inside track with his classy Bernardini filly. Even though Velvet Sister #1 has not been seen since last October, some bettors will expect her to be ready to fire after a number of NYRA “Non-G” contests that she fought through in the fall. I want no part of a runner that is 6/5 on the M/L, and is coming off such an extended break. Even with Jose Lezcano at the controls, that is not a good deal … Looking for some value elsewhere, I am much more impressed by Oscar Barrera’s Jen’s Battle #4. Owned by Gagliano Stables, this mare by Declaration of War is going to try this kind of company once again. It wasn’t that long ago that she was in ALLW-type races at Finger Lakes and Belmont. Expert rider Jackie Davis will get the call once again, and she is just on fire when it comes to getting long shots home. I would not count her out! One other entry that I want to use is her brother’s mount … Louis Linder’s Peak of Chic #6. Dylan Davis just won the riding title during the AQU Winter Meet, and he and Jackie were always on “live” runners it seemed. This Parx runner has some good efforts on his form, and I like the move to come to a NYRA course. The daughter of Texas-based Competitive Edge will be overlooked, despite the fact that Davis will be guiding her. Here is the bet … what a chance to cash a major ticket!

                    Wagering Recommendation: $2 Trifecta Box, 1/4/6

                      Sunday Seoul & Busan International Exchange Race Day: Race-by-Race Preview (April 3)

                      Big prizes on offer with five international trophy exchange races to be run on Sunday. At Seoul, where there is an 11-race card from 10:45 to 18:00, the Turkey Jockey Club (TJK) Trophy and the Gold Circle Trophy will be run. At Busan, where there is a 6-race card from 12:00 to 16:40, the Selangor Turf Club, China Horse Industry Association, and Tokyo City Keiba Trophies are all on the agenda. All betting locations are open, but attendance should be pre-booked using the MyCard app:

                      Seoul Race 1: Class 6 (1200M) Allowance / KRW 40 Million

                      Maiden three-year-old fillies in the opener and a couple come in looking ready to win. (1) SUPERDIA ran 3rd on debut over 1000M in January before stepping up to this trip on February 27th and leading for much of the way, ultimately coming home in 5th place, around four-lengths behind the winner. Drawn nicely, she can lead again, and this time go all the way. (4) WONDERFUL KITTY has claims on favourite status. She has the fastest time among these for the distance and comes in following a good 3rd place last time out. Her style has been to go back and to run on, she has some good final furlong times and will be coming home strongly here. (10) MAGIC MOCCASIN hasn’t been seen since her debut on Boxing Day when she led over 1000M, finishing 4th. Despite the wide draw, she can be on or close to the pace again and can be a danger. (2) LAROMANEE and (8) HIGH RUNNER, who came home 4th and 5th when they raced each other on February 19th, are others who can at least challenge for places.
                      Selections (1) Superdia (4) Wonderful Kitty (10) Magic Moccasin (2) Laromanee
                      Next Best 8, 7
                      Fast Start 1, 3, 9, 10

                      Seoul Race 2: Class 6 (1300M) Allowance / KRW 25 Million

                      A very competitive maiden. (9) SOJUNGHAN DANGSIN looks among the readiest to win, coming in as she does off a good 2nd place at class and distance on February 20th, when she was handy to the lead throughout. She should be on or close to the pace again and will be in this a long way. (11) OKDONG GONGJU has registered some good times for the distance and while she is yet to win in twelve attempts, she is consistent and enters having run 4th at her latest outing. She will probably be ridden patiently again and can run home strong. The draw doesn’t do her any favours though and nor does it for (12) EUNHYE DREAM although given her running style in her latest two, it may not be too damaging to her chances. She has run on for 3rd and a pair of 4th place finishes from her latest three and can be in the money hunt again. (2) V QUEEN and (4) HELLO GEUMSEONG are others in the hunt.
                      Selections (9) Sojunghan Dangsin (11) Okdong Gongju (12) Eunhye Dream (2) V Queen
                      Next Best 4, 5
                      Fast Start 3, 9, 10, 12

                      Seoul Race 3: Class 6 (1200M) Allowance / KRW 25 Million

                      Report this ad

                      Tricky maiden. (11) LONDON POWER has a decent start, a decent finish and has registered acceptable times for the distance and that combination may be enough to see her home on top here. The draw means she may need a touch of luck in the early stages, but if she can find a good position, she can win. (2) ONCHEONHA has a 2nd and a 3rd to his name from seven starts so far. He draws well to be able to take up a spot just behind the speed and then run on. (9) CHEONJI JIDAE also has a 2nd place to his name at this distance. Draw a line through his latest when he drew gate fourteen and he can be given another chance in this limited company. Given that this is not a deep field form wise, the two first-time starters can also be given a chance. (3) TROTTING RILEY and (6) GRAY THOR both posted fair times in their heats and couldn’t really ask for a softer race to start their careers in.

                      (2) GOLD TAP ran out a winner on debut over 1200M, sitting handy early and then running on well for a narrow score. He comes up in class and in trip today but draws significantly better and has every chance of measuring up in this company. The logical main danger is (7) DOCTOR TEXAS. He has run some good and consistent times at this distance, should be on pace here and can be in this a long way. He will need to overturn the form on (4) FRIGATE BIRD, who beat him when they raced each other at this distance back on January 28th. Frigate Bird is up 3kg in the weights on that day but enters in solid form and can have placing ambitions again. (9) GEUMBIT SKY has shown hints of returning to some kind of form in his latest two, and along with (3) SUN MOUNTAIN, is among the others who can find some minor money.

                      (5) FLYING ATHENA has been beaten into 2nd place in both of her last two starts, both times as favourite. She accordingly has to come up in class here, but she looks to have more improvement in her and from a nice draw she can win. She only has a nose to overturn on (12) WILD SOCKS, who beat her when they raced each other at this distance at class 6 level on March 5th. Wild Socks sat back that day and ran on, just getting there in time. He comes up in class too and the draw isn’t ideal, but he will certainly be a danger again. (11) BURUI KKOT is yet to win in five outings and like Flying Athena, got promoted to this level with back-to-back runner-up finishes. However, she has never finished worse than 5th and she has already been tested at this class and came through it well when 3rd over 1400M on February 26th. She can be a danger here. (2) COMPLETE LUCKY is another maiden up in class but is nicely in here to get a forward position early and can be in this a long way. (4) REMARKABLE also in the hunt.

                      Draw a line through the latest outing from (4) MONEY CASE, his first at this class, on February 25th when drawn in gate thirteen over 1300M he worked hard to find a position and ultimately came home in midfield. Instead go on his effort two starts back when making all to win over 1200M at class 6 level. Back in trip today and nicely drawn, he looks the one to beat. (9) ALPHA SONGDANG is up in class having secured her maiden win at start number two over this distance on February 25th. She made all that day and while the draw isn’t quite ideal, she should have enough early speed to get across to challenge for the lead and can potentially go all the way. (6) HARDY CHARLIE can mix his form. He got a bit left behind last time out when never a factor over this distance, but he draws better today and with a better start, can go close. (3) OREUDA and (10) OMEGA GIRL among others who can challenge for some minor money.

                      (7) TEAM IMPACT led from gate to wire on debut over 1200M on February 26th. He comes up in class here and marginally in trip as well but can get to the lead again and should have too much for this field. (5) BLACK MASK remains a maiden after four outings, but has never finished any worse than 3rd, a finish she achieved at this class and distance on March 6th, when she led for much of the race. She comes up slightly in the weights today but has solid claims to go close once again. So too (1) HEUNGHAENG DAEBAK. He too led at his latest start at class and distance on February 27th, ultimately running a very close 2nd to a good winner. He gets a great draw here and will be a threat. (12) ECTON JILJU doesn’t get a very good gate but comes in off a 2nd place at class and distance and with some early luck can be in this too. (2) CHAMPION GAMUN was 3rd behind Ecton Jilju on March 5th, a race he was sent off as favourite for, and can also be given another chance here.

                      Small but competitive field. (1) ALIVE CAPTAIN comes up in class and in distance after an excellent score over a mile on March 6th. He comes up slightly in weight too but that is balanced a little by a very good draw and there is no reason why he can’t measure up in this company. (4) ADELE CROWN had a tough time at this trip two starts back but is a winner at a mile and following a good 2nd place at this class over 1400M on March 11th, looks ready for another crack around two-turns. (3) SNYDER had an even tougher time in that 1800M race with Adele Crown, which was back on February 18th, but he is a class and distance winner and can be given another chance from a significantly better draw. (7) GREAT DANCE also ran in that February race and defied long odds to finish 2nd. He comes up in the weights as a result but will warrant more respect here. (6) ALBERT KING mixes his form but carries a feather weight and could be rattling home late.

                      It’s hard to look past (6) ASPENROS here. He had been working towards a win and it came at start number three over 1300M on February 27th when he settled handy and finished off well for an easy success. He comes up in class today, but it shouldn’t be much of an issue, and he has handled the 1400M before. It would be a surprise were he to get beaten. That’s because the opposition doesn’t enter in great form. Down in trip (7) BALBATU may turn out to be the biggest danger. He has run fast times at this distance and while he has been getting a bit far back in his races at 1700M, if he can be ridden a bit closer here, he is capable of finishing off well. (1) REAL PACK is yet to win in eleven outings but has come close on a couple of occasions and enters in consistent form. He comes back in trip following a 4th place over 1700M and from the inside gate can sit handy and run on. (11) YES I CAN and (9) FIRST DREAM others who can sneak some minor money.

                      A big prize on offer in the first of the afternoon’s international trophy exchange races. It’s for horses rated 65 and down and should be there for the taking for (3) SEUNGNI MAGICQUEEN. A winner over this distance at class 3 level two starts back, she is the highest rated in the race by a full nine-points and she even gets a nice 2kg filly allowance under the set weights scale. She will be on or close to the pace and will be hard to bet against. (8) LANE KILLER can be a touch up and down but at his best he can run the favourite close. He was a smart winner over this distance at class 4 last time out and can come from behind the pace with a strong finish. (5) UNJU EUTTEUM comes back in trip following a good 3rd place finish on his first try at class 3 on February 27th. The weight scale brings him up a full 5.5kg but he should be competitive. Seungni Magicqueen’s stablemate (9) ALPHA STAR comes is first up following over three months out, but he looked sharp in a trial and has run just as quick at this distance in the past as his fellow Rice-trainee. (6) GEUMA STARLET, 2nd over a mile last time out at class 4 level is another to consider.

She is yet to finish outside the top five in her nine appearances so far and though it has been a while since the most recent of her two wins, she remains consistently close. She comes up 2kg on her latest effort when running 3rd at this class and distance on March 6th and she can win here. (1) WONDERFUL RUBY ran 7th behind Choegang Queen in that March 6th race, having led for much of the way. Drawn well again, she has consistently run good times for this distance and can get a bit closer today. (10) MAGIC GRACE is a winner of three from six so far, including her most recent when leading gate-to-wire at class and distance on February 27th. She gets to carry exactly the same weight and while the draw is less favourable and she does tend to mix her form, with a touch of early luck she can find the front and could go all the way. (9) BEST TIME and (3) MONEY SIJANG are others who can sneak a place.

                      Draw a line through the latest effort from (1) COOL GUY, when he led but weakened over 2000M. That was his first time finishing outside of the top three in twelve career starts so far and while today’s is a distance he hasn’t actually won at, he has posted good times and has won at 1200M and 1600M and from a great draw, his class should see him to victory here. (7) SKY MORE hasn’t quite been able to carry on from his early momentum that saw him win four of his first eight starts. He finished midfield last start over this tri at class 3 level and from a better gate today, can go closer. (4) COPY THAT has twelve top three finishes from fifteen starts so far and has posted some very good times at this distance. At his latest start he was a very good winner over 1200M at class 3 level and can sit on pace or handy and run close here. (5) ILNYEOM TONGCHEON was a last start winner at this distance at class 3 and along with (6) TOP DAY is another in the placing frame at least.

At the start before, he won over 1800M at class 3 level. He is a three-time winner at this distance too, all in fast times, and he is the one to beat here, most likely settling midfield and running on. (8) A. P. PATEK doesn’t exactly win out of turn, but he likes this distance and drops back following six recent spins around two-turns. He is another who generally settles back in the field and runs on and he can be dangerous at the business end of the race. (3) WINNER BLUE also doesn’t have a prolific win rate, but he comes in here in the best form of his career with two wins from his last four. They were both at 1200M, but in between them he put in two good runs at this distance too, finishing 4th and 2nd in fast times. (10) GANGSEO PRINCESS and (11) REDBACK are others to enter the calculations.

                      Fillies and mares only here. (5) QUEEN OF THE WORLD is highest rated by a full seven points, and she should be showing exactly why here. It is true that she hasn’t won at further than 1400M and she struggled on her solitary previous try at this distance. That was almost two years ago and the way she has run in her latest starts suggests she is ready for another crack, especially in this company. (8) ADELE PUPIL returned to form with a win over a mile at class 4 level on February 11th when on pace throughout. She has run a couple of very good times at this distance, including when 2nd at class 3, and she can go well here. (6) BURNING PARTY has been a touch disappointing in her latest two but is a winner at this distance as recently as December and shouldn’t be ruled out here. (2) QUEEN HARLEY and (4) GYEONGJUUI DUREBAK others who could sneak some minor money.

                      Fillies and mares only here. We’ll take a chance on (4) EODIGANA, who had a poor day at the office on her only start so far this year, returning to form. She drew wide that day and then didn’t run on. She rounded out her three-year-old campaign with victory in the Gyeonggi Governor’s Cup, the final leg of the Filly Triple Crown over 2000M and has won at this distance too. The main danger and probable favourite is (5) SARYEONI QUEEN. She won back-to-back races at class 4 level, one of them at today’s distance, across the turn of the year, before running 3rd on her first try at class 3, again at 1800M, on March 6th, having led until the closing stages. She draws nicely here and has every chance. (3) QUEENS TOUR finished 3rd behind Eodigana in the Gyeonggi, having beaten her when the pair ran 4th and 5th in the Korean Oaks. At her latest start, she was a winner over 1700M at class 4 level and is a contender here. (12) RUBICON and (2) RAON CHAMPSELY are others to look out for.

                      Good race. (7) JANGSAN POISON comes up in distance and rapidly in class after back-to-back wins over 1400M at class 6 and class 5 levels. He is nicely weighted and while in those wins, he led gate to wire, there’s no reason why he can’t win from the front here too. (5) K N WONDERFUL is already a class and distance winner, having struck two starts back when settling midfield and running on strong. He ran 3rd at his latest start on March 5th but draws much better today and can be a danger. He can overturn the form on (6) SPEED BELLE, who finished 2nd in that March 5th race. The latter has won at this class in the past though so another bold showing can’t be ruled out. (3) ETERNAL MEMORY and (1) JANGSAN GUARD are among others who enter with recent form reading well and who can compete for the money.

                      (3) DO KKI BLADE returned to action following five months off in the Segye Ilbo over this distance at the end of January. That was a stiff pipe-opener to say the least, but he ran creditably enough in 8th of fourteen. He should have come on for that and while he carries plenty of weight, that’s balanced by a nice gate and his class can come through. (4) CUPID GUY comes back in trip following recent good work around 1400M. He tends to sit back and rely on his strong finish, and he will be flashing home late here. (1) CHEUNGDAM GENIE ran a fair 5th of thirteen behind Raon The Fighter at his latest outing on February 20th. Obviously, he was miles behind the winner, but he wasn’t too far off the place-getters, and he can go well from the inside gate. (2) M J POWER comes back in trip. He too can run competitive times at this distance. The returning (6) DAEBAK HAENGJIN looked well when winning a trial in March and could be an interesting outsider.

                        Al Cimaglia: Rosecroft Raceway Pick 4 Analysis

                        April 3, 2022 | By Al Cimaglia

                        Tonight, Rosecroft Raceway has a 13-race card set to roll. The feature is slated as Race 11, a Maryland Preferred Open Handicap Pace with a $12,500 purse. The 0.50 Pick 4 starts in Race 9, and the sequence will be my focus.

                        Comments and selections below are based on a fast track.

                        Race 9

                        1-Cole On The Beach (3-1)-Camera shy 6-year-old comes off a good try on a sloppy track and now steps-up. Might be overlooked at the windows and may benefit from an efficient trip in a race without much form.
                        2-Boot Leg (4-1)-Comes off an even effort at this class but did miss a couple of starts. Fits with these and should be a player if returns to the form shown on 3-2.
                        3-Foiledbythebeach (7/2)-Bumps up a couple of levels after an easy win on 3-27. Needs a trip and should have enough gate speed to get a good seat. Should be rolling off cover and the pace could be lively, which helps the cause.

                        Race 10

                        1-Cousin Brucie (7/2)-Steps-up after a sharp win leaving from the rail. Foster can put this 10-year-old in play and it's best to respect chances for an encore.
                        6-Buckeye N (5/2)-This veteran drops to a more comfortable spot and has enough gate speed to get a good seat. Does good work racing near the top of the stack and Foster could have that plan in mind.
                        7-Never Easy Z Tam (3-1)-Drew off by almost 8-lengths versus much easier on 3-31 as a big chalk and now returns quickly. Has the speed to compete here and the start will be key. Wagner will need to work a trip, but the price will be much better than 1/9.

                        Race 11

                        1-Starship (6-1)-Was stung early on in last and could benefit from a suck-around trip. This 5-year-old has hit the board in 26 of 38 starts at RcR with 11 pictures. Roberts could work a pocket ride and be heard from late in the mile.
                        3-Slick Tony (3-1)-Tony made the most of a hot pace and was the best in the late going. Paced the 2nd half in 55.3 to take top honors versus this kind last week. That was a sharp effort coming off a sick scratch and best to not overlook tonight.
                        6-Precision Bluechip (5/2)-Foster should have the pedal down off the gate and if gets the top without using up much gas it might be picture time. Beat straight Open company on 3-6 and will likely be bet hard again.

                        Race 12

                        1-Jack Quick (5/2)-Was in tall cotton in last versus Open company and is now at a better level to compete. Doesn't have big gate speed but can close nicely off cover. Will be a threat if brings the same type of effort as the last win on 3-20.
                        5-Uncle Coz (3-1)-Steps-up after falling short after a gate to wire try from post 7. Fits here and may land on the point without a sizzling 25.3 opening quarter. That could be the difference needed to cash the top check.

                        0.50 Pick 4

                        1,2,3/1,6,7/1,3,6/1,5

                          Jeff Siegel's Santa Anita Analysis/Workout Commentary - 4-3-22

                          April 3, 2022

                          “What You Need to Know” - Santa Anita
                          By Jeff Siegel, Handicapper & Analyst


                          Specifically designed for the rolling exotic player, Jeff Siegel’s Daily Santa Anita Handicapping Analysis, Wagering Strategies, Workout Commentary, and True Odds Calculations (“TOC”) identify those horses that should be included in daily doubles, pick-3s, pick-4s, pick-5s, and the pick-6.
                          *
                          The “TOC” quantifies the findings of a personal thoroughbred analytics program that contains in its database the results of every race contested at Santa Anita since 2004. More than 75 critical factors in the fields of class, distance, surface, age, and sex have created 227 algorithms that are highly specific to the race being handicapped. The result is a probability line that reflects each contender’s true odds based on a pure 100-point takeout.

                          The “TOC” applies its mathematical formula only to non-maiden races and displays a maximum of four runners considered the most likely contenders to win. Also listed is the specific algorithm’s sample size plus the top-rated horse’s win percentage and return on investment (ROI). It is suggested that the player utilize the program’s findings to compare each contender’s “true odds” with the morning line and/or actual wagering odds to identify potential overlays and underlays.

                          Also-eligible runners are not included in any of the calculations until verified as actual starters. When possible, adjustments to the “TOC” will be updated after late scratches.

                          Single: 5-Youte

                          Forecast: Youte has rapidly rising speed figures, and with another forward move in just her fourth career start the daughter of Danzing Candy should take care of business in this downhill turf sprint for first-level allowance state-bred fillies and mares. She has the proper style for the course, and with the patient ride she requires for J. Hernandez the Cliff Sise, Jr., trained 3-year-old should be along in plenty of time. At 5/2 on the morning line, she’s a win play and rolling exotic single.

                          Single: 2-Busy Paynter

                          Forecast: Busy Paynter (TOC=3/5; ML=6/5) is listed at 6/5 on the morning line and may go lower in this five-runner affair despite the two-level raise in class for new trainer S Knapp following a $12,500 claim last month. First or second in six of nine career starts over the Santa Anita main track, the veteran mare is pretty much a need-the-lead type, and at this abbreviated sprint trip there will be no breathers, but if she breaks well she should be able to handle the heat. In a race that probably should be left alone, you can use her as a short-priced, no-value rolling exotic single or better yet just sit out the race.

                          Use (in order of preference): 6-Newpark; 3-Cherubic Factor; 4-My Summer Dream

                          Forecast: In another race that probably should be handled with care, we’ll go three-deep in rolling exotic play but without anything resembling a strong opinion. Newpark (TOC=7/2; ML=9/5) projects as the controlling speed, and if he can shake loose early without being sent the Irish-bred gelding may get brave and roll all the way to the wire. We’re not sure what the addition of blinkers will accomplish but we do like the drop in class, so we’ll put him slightly on top. Cherubic Factor (TOC=3-1; ML=5/2) has finished in the money in his last three starts, has a prior win over the local lawn, and will be doing his best work late. Numbers-wise, he’s a strong fit, so he’s a major player despite his lack of tactical speed. My Summer Dream (TOC=7/2; ML=3-1), third in the same race Cherubic Factor finished second in last month, is another that will be running on late. F. Prat stays aboard, and that’s always a good thing.

                          Use (in order of preference: 4-Lil Light Headed; 6-Tribute to Afleet

                          Forecast: Here’s an inscrutable affair in which the ultimate one-paced grinder and 12-race maiden Whiskey Vision actually may win, and that’s a scary thought;. The four-old gelding has hit the board in his last pair but never produces any punch under pressure, so he’s always hard to back with confidence. Let’s go in a different direction. Lil Light Headed was beaten 27 lengths in his only start, but at least he flashed good speed for a half before packing it in, and he was facing infinitely tougher straight maiden company in a race that already has produced a next out winner. He’ll add Lasix today while stretching out as the presumed front-runner, so under these conditions the son of Will Take Charge will have every opportunity to wire the field. You can also toss in Tribute to Afleet, another class dropper and making his second start off a layoff while returning to dirt and adding blinkers. He tends to lag early and pass a few late, and if our top pick fails to see out the trip this J. Cassidy-trained gelding may be able to tag the faltering leaders late. Tread lightly here.

                          Use (in order of preference): 2-Constitutionalaffair; Border Town; 7-Sniper Kitten

                          Forecast: Older $40,000 claimers meet over a mile on grass in a race that has a few possibilities. Constitutionalaffair (TOC=3-1; ML=4-1) is reunited with “win rider” F. Prat and projects to draft into a ground-saving, stalking position and then have his chance to repeat his race-before-last, a clever win over this course and distance that earned a solid figure. A three-time winner over the local lawn, the M. Glatt-trained gelding was overmatched in a downhill sprint vs. stronger goes last time out but is realistically spotted today and can bounce back. Border Town (TOC=6-1; ML=7/2) hasn’t been our kind of horse – he’s finished off the board in 11 of 20 career starts, but he has numbers that fit and should greatly appreciate the first-time drop in a claimer. All three of his wins have been accomplished over the Santa Anita turf course, so with the help of fast early fractions he should have his chance to make an impact late. Sniper Kitten (TOC=7/2; ML=5/2) projects to settle in mid-pack and produce a run in a race that should have plenty of early speed signed on. The barn is just 1-for-29 this season and rider just 1-for-33, so you’d probably want more than the 5/2 morning line, but on pure form this veteran son of Kitten’s Joy is a fit and should be included somewhere on your ticket.

                          Use (in order of preference): 6-Big Scott Daddy; 5-Quantum Quest

                          Forecast: Low level restricted (Nw-2) $12,500 claimers meet over the extended sprint distance of six and one-half furlongs. We’ll try to survive and advance using just two. Big Scotty Daddy (TOC=8/5; ML-9/5) has a prior win over the track (his debut, Dec. 26, 2018) and has been chasing much tougher foes while earning speed figures good enough to win at this level, so we’ll put him on top, though at 9/5 on the morning line the M. Puype-trained gelding doesn’t offer any real value. Quantum Quest (TOC=4-1; ML=5/2) is worth using, as well. Re-equipped with blinkers and dropping to his lowest level ever, the D. O’Neill-trained gelding looks like the best of the speed types and could take some catching if he can clear early.

                          Single: 2-Summer Daisy

                          Forecast: Summer Daisy (TOC=4/5; ML=6/5) missed by a head in a similar starter optional claimer over this course and distance last time out and not much more will be needed to regain her winning form. She gets a major upgrade in riders to F. Prat, lands a good inside draw, and should draft into a pace-stalking position and then have every chance to seal the deal. However, there’s no value to be found at her morning line of 6/5. You can use her as a rolling exotic single or simply sit it out.

                          Use (in order of preference): 1-Proverb

                          Forecast: Proverb (TOC=8/5; ML=8/5) moves up a level after a game win for $40,000 two weeks ago, and if he can turn in two alike, the R. Baltas-trained horse should be tough right back. The pace projection appears modest, so we’re expecting to see F. Prat take advantage of his rail post and put him in the race right from the start. There is nothing inspiring about the other five entrants, so at 8/5 on the morning line the veteran son of Flatter seems logical, it not terribly appealing, as the logical short-priced favorite.

                          Single: 5-Street Ruckus

                          Forecast: Street Ruckus (TOC=7/5; ML=5/2) has rising numbers and in his present form should be capable of a repeat score after winning a starter’s allowance main track affair on dirt last time out. This is a tougher assignment but the switch to grass won’t be a bother and neither will this longer nine-furlong distance. Most effective as the controlling speed, the Street Boss gelding projects as the controlling speed, so if he’s allowed to take it easy during the early stages he’ll be very tough to run down late. At 5/2 on the morning line, he’s a win play and rolling exotic single.

                            Oaklawn Park - Race #5
                            Picks Notes
                            #7 Summer in Malibu He's a special weight graduate returning in starter company thanks to the $30,000 tag in his November debut run, and he should find a decent trip tracking the likely chalk. Mild upset?
                            #1 Eastside Cool He proved a good pickup when rising to handle allowance company off the conditioned claiming try, and he's a really good fit back in with starters -- he's probably tough with anything like his last.
                            #5 Jay Vee Bee He's a decent finisher, but the top choices both should get a pretty decent jump on him, so he might be along too late for anything more than a minor share.
                            Race Summary Summer in Malibu probably needs another step forward here to handle Eastside Cool, but he comes in with good form and should be in the right spot to see if he's good enough.

                            Oaklawn Park - Race #8
                            Picks Notes
                            #5 Goalie He gets a tougher test here, but I like the way he handled this trip over the local surface last month, and it's easy to see him getting a perfect first-over trip.
                            #1 Lone Rock He should appreciate the added ground after trying Grade III company here last time out, and he has done his best work at these marathon dirt trips. Expecting better here.
                            #4 Strong Tide He was very sharp when controlling an allowance group at this trip last month, and he's another who should be near the tempo early on here.
                            Race Summary Goalie is a consistent type who earned a class test off an easy win when going long last time out, and he doesn't seem far off what some of the more accomplished performers in here are capable of.

                            Oaklawn Park - Race #9
                            Picks Notes
                            #1 Lochmoor Going to give this riser a look after taking a big step forward on the step up for the new team last time out. The waters get deeper again here, but maybe he's along late at a decent price.
                            #7 Macho Ronnie He'll run for a new team here after turning in a pretty useful effort at the $30,000 level, and he probably has some upside while protected in this second lifetime start.
                            #5 Traffic Control He owns a few races that would handle these, but he has done a lot of settling for underneath shares through 19 starts, and I think he'll find another one or two a bit too tough today.
                            Race Summary Lochmoor stepped up nicely off the claim last time out now takes another hike off that good try. Think he has the upside to be in the mix here.

                              Check out our other handicapping here!

                              RACE 1: MAIDEN SPECIAL WEIGHT, 3-YEAR-OLDS, 1 1/16 MILES

                              5-1-3-4

                              We’ve got eight races on the schedule for today’s card. #5 Stacks of Silver (8/5) has shown speed and gotten caught late in his last few races. He now goes third off the layoff and faces a field where no one can run with him early. #1 Continentalcongres (2/1) made a decent rally to finish a clear-cut second last out, his first local start after some tries in New York. He loves finishing second and third, and can earn one of those spots if Stacks of Silver gets away early. #3 Blameitonthefun (10/1) has slowly improved in his last few starts, peaking at a 73 brisnet figure in his last start. Should hang around for a piece at decent odds.

                              RACE 2: CLAIMING $5,000, 3-YEAR-OLDS AND UP, FILLIES AND MARES, 5 1/2 FURLONGS

                              2-1-6-3

                              #2 Dat Deres Gold (9/2) was a bit further off the pace than she might’ve wanted to be last out, but she made good ground in the stretch and got second behind the very impressive winner, Blue Sky Venezuela. It was as good of a closing rally as she’s shown in recent times. #1 Calypso Ghost (2/1) got caught for second by Dat Deres Gold in her last start. She’ll make her second start for the Anthony Farrior barn and has blazing early speed and a good post. #6 Jeanie’s Angel (9/2) will press Calypso Ghost from the outside and will try to improve off a tough trip at Charles Town last out.

                              Dawnland
                              Laurel: Dawnland surges to maiden win
                              Three-year-old filly Dawnland returned from six months on the sidelines to break her maiden Friday at Laurel Park for trainer Brittany Russell.

                              RACE 3: MAIDEN CLAIMING $16,000, 3-YEAR-OLDS, 5 1/2 FURLONGS

                              8-3-1-6

                              The rainbow pick 6 starts here. #8 Winston’s Gold (9/5) has an 0-for-7 career mark, which is never great, but he’s facing a very inexperienced field and drops from the $25,000 level. He ran a game race on the lead last out before fading in the last eighth. #3 Big Daddy D (5/2) and #1 Gerrys Gem (6/1) are the most interesting of the five first-time starters in here. The former races for the Jerry Robb/Xavier Perez duo and has had some good drills since returning to the worktab in mid-February. The latter has back-to-back bullet drills at Pimlico in his lines. It’ll be interesting to see if he gets bet off his 6/1 morning line.

                              RACE 4: STARTER OPTIONAL CLAIMING $25,000, 3-YEAR-OLDS AND UP, 7 FURLONGS

                              4-3-6-1

                              This race starts the late pick 5, and it features a horse almost everyone will single. #4 Tate (1/1) has lost his last three starts by less than a length, running no worse than an 88 in each of those races. He’s made menacing moves and flattened out in each of those starts, which is a bit ominous. However, his figures are so vastly superior to those of the others, it might not matter. #3 What Does It Take (5/2) burst through and drew off in his maiden-breaking score last out, and goes first off the claim for Kieron Magee. He’s a bit inexperienced compared to the others, but he has a lot of potential. #6 Wicked Prankster (6/1) ran a game race on the lead in his first start off the layoff and should be a threat on the lead once again.

                              RACE 5: MAIDEN CLAIMING $25,000, 3-YEAR-OLDS, 1 1/16 MILES

                              5-9-2-3

                              #5 Remembering Wilbur (5/2) has finished second in each of his three starts, closing in the stretch after rating far from the early pace each time. More distance might be what he needs. #9 Scintillio (4/1) has also run in the 70s in four straight starts and goes third off the layoff. He held in well going a mile for the first time last out, but didn’t have much of a winning punch. #2 Coastal Chaos (8/1) prefers two turns and was a solid second after setting the pace last out.

                              RACE 6: ALLOWANCE OPTIONAL CLAIMING (N/W2X), 3-YEAR-OLDS AND UP, 5 1/2 FURLONGS

                              8-6-4-1A

                              A very fun allowance field lines up here. #8 Eastern Bay (7/2) ran a huge race first off the layoff, stalking the pace and crushing a starter optional claiming group with a figure of 94. Should keep moving forward with the race under his belt. #6 Nottoway (5/1) has lots of early speed and some wins at this level, but hasn’t raced since May. He should impact the early pace, but we’ll see how the long layoff impacts him. Recent workouts have been sharp. #4 Going to the Lead (4/1) has won three in a row and is two photo finishes away from a five-race winning streak. He should be able to get to the lead and the rail, and if Nottoway doesn’t fire first off the bench, all the better.

                              RACE 7: STARTER OPTIONAL CLAIMING $16,000, 3-YEAR-OLDS AND UP, 1 MILE

                              5-4-1-2

                              #5 Rough Sea (3/1) hasn’t run many bad races lately, and is coming off a second-place effort at this level where he was wide throughout. He’s run at least an 86 in four of his last five races. #4 Halite (5/1) takes a slight drop in class and has great late pace figures. He won at this condition in January at 16/1, and did so with a dramatic late move that he’ll have to duplicate to win this race. #1 Clubman (5/2) goes second off the claim for Jamie Ness and closed well off a slow pace last out.

                              RACE 8: CLAIMING $10,000 (N/W2L), 3-YEAR-OLDS AND UP, 1 1/16 MILES

                              3-1-2-5

                              #3 Ice Rain (9/5) has been rounding into his best form lately and has good tactical speed. He almost won two starts back but drifted out. #1 Millean (5/1) goes second off the layoff and ships here after a dull effort in New York last out. He’ll also try to sit the trip. #2 Dejohn (3/1) tends to show speed and fade but should hang around for a piece.
