#8 DIAL AGAIN (ML=8/1)
#4 OUT MY DEAR (ML=5/2)
#7 I GOT HOPE (ML=3/1)
DIAL AGAIN - If this filly gets out of the gate cleanly, she'll be tough to catch. I have to figure that this contest's shorter distance should help this filly. OUT MY DEAR - Sub-par effort last out at Thistledown was due to the off-going (she finished fourth). I'd expect a better race today without the off-track conditions. Rider hops right back on board after getting to know the magnificent animal by riding in the last race. That's always a big time angle. This horse's last race was out at Thistledown in a race with a class rating of 70. Dropping considerably in Equibase class figure this time puts her in a solid position in today's race. I like the hard fact that this filly's last speed fig, 67, is tops in this group. I GOT HOPE - I took a look at this filly's finishes. She's almost always in the money. I am keen on that latest effort on October 13th at Thistledown where she finished second.
Vulnerable Contenders: #1 BAREFOOT BEACH (ML=4/1), #6 LA LA ANGEL (ML=6/1), #9 ARTIES CRYPTONITE (ML=8/1),
BAREFOOT BEACH - Looked like she was in good form on September 27th. Hasn't been near the track since then though. Not a positive sign. This pony ran a somewhat easily forgotten rating in the last race. She shouldn't improve and will likely get beat in today's event running that rating. LA LA ANGEL - Will probably be stranded with too much to do down the stretch. When looking at today's class rating, she will have to record a much better fig than last race out to be competitive in this dirt sprint. ARTIES CRYPTONITE - Hard to play at 8/1 odds after the most recent efforts.
GUEST COMMENTARY: Winston - OUT MY DEAR - Playing the top earnings per start animal is an angle which won't steer you wrong in the long run. I'm betting on this one.| STRAIGHT WAGERS: | Put your money on #8 DIAL AGAIN on the nose if you can get odds of 3/1 or more |
