Brian W. Spencer's Daily Picks

Fair Grounds - Race #1
Picks Notes
#7 Anslie's Gumdrop Her form last season was hit or miss, but I think there might be some hints that she's just a good fit here. Her three dull runs came 1- against maiden special company, 2- going long, and 3-when she was last seen before an eight month break in her worktab. Guessing she's going to be handful here.
#6 Isn't It Time She proved a pretty good fit at this level last time out when dipping in to try similar in her 12th career start, and while she's not full of good excuses at this point, she still seems like an obvious threat.
#2 Beanie She chased and faded in the comeback run, but she has a right to do better this time around after getting that first race in nine months under her belt. Forward player.
Race Summary Anslie's Gumdrop went to the sidelines after a flat try, but her two-back run in February here with similar could make her tough. Worktab is brief but intriguing enough.

Fair Grounds - Race #6
Picks Notes
#3 Olivia G She finished up nicely in the debut run for a barn that can do some pretty good work with these types, and her mom was a pretty nice Louisiana-bred runner. Tough with any move forward today.
#11 Michelles Lil Star She was no match in the debut run, but she caught a really tough winner who was back to just miss in stakes company on Champions Day and will face stakes foes again here in a couple days. Company line fits, but I worry she's going to catch another filly from the West barn that leaves her second best again.
#1 Rosie Sprit She might be better down the road going a bit longer or even trying turf, but I wouldn't be shocked to see her run an ok race at first asking at a nice price. Get a look at her on the track.
Race Summary Michelles Lil Star caught impressive debut winner Norah G in her debut run, and she may unfortunately find another tough filly from that barn today in Olivia G. I'll leave heavily on the top choice here. Thinking we might also see a competitive race from #10 Mia Antonia

Fair Grounds - Race #7
Picks Notes
#3 Twirling Roses Think he lands a pretty perfect trip in here while spying the speed, and he has been a pretty reliable runner in his recent starts. Think he can hold that form again here to get past these.
#6 Underhill's Tab He's back off the Keeneland April layoff, and he owns a stakes placing at this trip over the local footing. Think he'll fire fresh here in a competitive race.
#4 Pro Oxidant He has shown some decent finishing ability through three starts and would certainly benefit if an early battle developed today. Think his early career baseline makes him tough with these, but he's probably going to get bet and hasn't really threatened a winner in his last two. Tough call.
Race Summary Several options in this spot -- #1 Charlie's Creed has some appeal in here, too, but I think maybe he's vulnerable late after hustling from the inside early. Twirling Roses might be the right one to settle and finish from close range after the inside pair battle early.

Frank Carulli's Daily Picks

Laurel Park - Race #1
Picks Notes
#9 BEST WORST IDEA (7-2) Best to key in all gimmick wagers and hope she’s ready for return.
#1 FIVE STAR FRAN (4-1) Disputed pace to stretch two back, ran into trouble as fave in follow-up.
#5 DUNDER BOSS (3-1) Third at one mile, burned money in all three starts.
Race Summary BEST WORST IDEA appears an all-or-nothing type in her first start since his MSW debut in June. She stalked 4-to-5 winner Tappin Josie (2-6, $91k) – who won a $25,000 optional claiming race at Laurel two weeks ago – but couldn’t gain in the stretch. Play a 9-ALL exacta.

Laurel Park - Race #2
Picks Notes
#4 BACKATYA (8-5) Kept good company, looking to put finishing touches on $100,000 season.
#8 BOWIE TWO STEP (9-2) Pressed solid pace while 4-wide, romped in prior start, offers some value.
#4 ADDY’S LADDY T N T (1 Rallied for pair of upset victories in his last three starts.
Race Summary BACKATYA, a five-race winner taking on non-winners-of-three rivals, has maintained steady form in what could become a six-figure sophomore season. He ran second to Rominski (3-9, $93k), who romped in a $16,000 claimer here earlier this month.

Laurel Park - Race #5
Picks Notes
#3 BORN FOR VICTORY (6-1) Did well to hold second in first start as gelding, can be excused for latest.
#6 STRONGER THAN DEX (6-1) Gets class relief, barn works wonders with 3-year-olds.
#2 WINSTON’S GOLD (7-2) Rallied for minor awards in last pair, gets pace to run at.
Race Summary BORN FOR VICTORY showed good speed in his first start as a gelding and held second at 7F after the favorite passed by. He unseated the jockey and ran off briefly in the post parade last out and failed to threaten on the class rise. Bet to win and place and play a 2-3-6 exacta box.

PURCHASE

Gulfstream Park - Race #9 - Post: 4:14pm - Claiming - 8.5 furlongs on the Dirt. Purse: $22,000 Class Rating: 81

Rating:

#2 ROSA STAR (ML=6/1)
#9 SWEET ACTRESS (ML=10/1)
#3 HOT BODE (ML=4/1)

ROSA STAR - Don't often see a beneficial return on investment like +30. This jock/trainer twosome has done well together over the last twelve months. Lets try to beat the chalks with this mare. Just missed last out, but ran a respectable race. SWEET ACTRESS - I expect this horse to astonish some folks this time around. HOT BODE - This filly is in excellent physical condition right now. Ended up fifth last out and comes back soon. This horse looks like an overlay today at morning line odds of 4/1. Finished fifth in last race at Gulfstream Park but was close at the wire.

Vulnerable Contenders: #4 CALIFORNIA GIGI (ML=9/2), #5 KARENVILLE (ML=5/1), #1 PERFECT KIMBERLY S (ML=6/1),

CALIFORNIA GIGI - This filly raced very well on December 4th finishing first, but hasn't even visited the track since then. Not really a good sign. KARENVILLE - This horse likes to be in the money, but doesn't usually win. Keep out of the top spot. PERFECT KIMBERLY S - You figure that this animal is going to win today just because she's always close. Just doesn't finish on top often.

STRAIGHT WAGERS:	Bet on #2 ROSA STAR to win if we can get at least 5/2 odds
EXACTA WAGERS:	2 with [3,9]
TRIFECTA WAGERS:	Box [2,3,9] Total Cost: $6
SUPERFECTA WAGERS:	[2,3,9] with [2,3,9] with [2,3,4,9,11] with [2,3,4,9,11] Total Cost: $36
SUPER HI 5 WAGERS:	[2,3,9] with [2,3,9] with [2,3,4,9] with [2,3,4,9,10,11] with [2,3,4,9,10,11] Total Cost: $72

Race 3 - Maiden Claiming - 8.0f on the Dirt. Purse: $25000 Class Rating: 58

FOR MAIDENS, FILLIES TWO YEARS OLD. WEIGHT, 122 LBS. CLAIMING PRICE $15,000, FOR EACH $2,500 TO $10,000 1 LB.

RECOMMENDED CHOICES
	# 11 CHROME DESSERT 5/1
# 2 ELLIE DELI 3/1
# 6 CEE MINUS 6/1

CHROME DESSERT is the top bet in this race. This bunch is much softer than the last one she faced. This animal has to be wagered on at the expected big odds. There is a quite good chance that this entry's late pace will improve now going off Lasix. ELLIE DELI - Will most likely be one of the leaders of the pack going into the midpoint of the affair. Garnered a strong Equibase Speed Figure in the most recent race. Can run another good one in this contest.

FOR THREE YEAR OLDS AND UPWARD FOALED IN NEW YORK STATE AND APPROVED BY THE NEW YORK STATE-BRED REGISTRY WHICH HAVE NEVER WON $18,000 OTHER THAN MAIDEN, CLAIMING OR STARTER OR WHICH HAVE NEVER WON TWO RACES. THREE YEAR OLDS, 120 LBS.; OLDER, 122 LBS. NON-WINNERS OF A RACE OTHER THAN CLAIMING OR STARTER ALLOWED 2 LBS.

RECOMMENDED CHOICES
	# 8 OCEAN'S RESERVE 15/1
# 11 JOEY LOOSE LIPS 12/1
# 4 AGILITY 7/2

I've got to go with OCEAN'S RESERVE and could score at a price in here. Has to be given a shot against this group displaying competitive figures recently and an average speed figure of 91 under similar conditions. JOEY LOOSE LIPS - With Gomez aboard him, this gelding will most likely be able to break out sharply in this competition. Has been running strongly in races of this distance, going 2 for 5 under similar conditions. AGILITY - Could beat this field given the 98 speed rating posted in his last outing. Looks very good for the conditions of this race today, showing solid figures in dirt sprint races lately.

Laurel - Race #7 - Post: 3:21pm - Claiming - 8.0 furlongs on the Dirt. Purse: $35,000 Class Rating: 86

Rating:

#8 FEDERAL OFFENSE (ML=5/1)
#2 THE LAST SCIP (ML=12/1)

FEDERAL OFFENSE - I have to like this gelding's winning probability at the shorter distance. THE LAST SCIP - Have to give this gelding a chance. Ran a strong race in the last race within the last month. You always have to be on the prowl for bankroll building rider/trainer teams; we have one right here.

Vulnerable Contenders: #10 PHARAOH'S TRIUMPH (ML=5/2), #1 HELLMAN (ML=7/2), #5 AUSPICIOUS LAD (ML=6/1),

PHARAOH'S TRIUMPH - This morning-line favorite may be out of shape without any recent workouts. This gelding hasn't been showing me anything positive in the last two races. HELLMAN - Difficult to keep stabbing at this kind of 'bridesmaid' horse. AUSPICIOUS LAD - If you keep selecting these sort of 'bridesmaid' types, you're going to be let down most every time.

STRAIGHT WAGERS:	#8 FEDERAL OFFENSE is going to be the play if we are getting 9/5 or better
EXACTA WAGERS:	Box [2,8]
TRIFECTA WAGERS:	None
SUPERFECTA WAGERS:	None
SUPER HIGH 5 WAGERS:	Pass
