Handicappers Corner
Shooting for our 4th straight winning recommended pick 3 part wheel of the day with prior returns of 5 to 1, 3 to 1, and 8-5 on our investments
6th race pick 3 part-wheel 2, 4, 5 ,7 with 1, 4 with 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 40 bets
race 1 slightly above average clarity
2 Dee Dee's flight strong rider switch to M Garcia......solid fig in last at today's distance.......decent chance to be loose with a jock who has had a good year riding on or near the lead in route races in 2010
3 Champagneandlilies 2 solid sprint races under her belt and now we switch to the meet's leading rider for her 1st route race....decent shot to be chasing the lead in good position
5 Skylights Sadler closer will be a big factor late especially if the 3 horse pressures the 2 horse more than I believe she will
race 2 average clarity
1 Closing Steps monster pace in a route grass race in her last was quite the wake up....works are better than ever since....1 for 1 at today's distance and it was in her only SA race on the AW
6 Slew Of Candy one step at a time up the improvement ladder......no reason to believe this girl can't continue the trend
3 Classy Attraction faced quite a bit better in last so beaten by 7 is OK......hard trying horse has fired at least somewhat in all 8 lifetime endeavors on the AW
race 3 average clarity
4 Ministers Power solid improvement on the AW in his last two races at GG and now back to the turf where he is the only proven grass winner in the field...also working great...sharp
9 Good Brother claimed in impressive debut run at Crc in early Jan.....has trained well since for his new barn....bred well enough to handle the lawn
6 Good Turn very steady performer firing in all 5 lifetime starts.....so so grass breeding
1 Unusual Encounter post hurts but he is proven on the sod and can put in a close in a field that may produce a decent early pace
race 4 average clarity
1 Kaylie's Joy improved in latest.....caught wide with pace....previous was rathorsolid as well....same effort with a clean trip would make her difficult to beat
3 Vision Of Danymac owns some bad trip efforts at Tup in MSW affairs over the last few years.....training at GG and the barn elects to ship on down strongly suggests the horse is ready for her 1st start outside of Bluegrass Country
4 Suances Rio debut run 11 months ago fits fine for today's bottom level of maiden claiming.....works seem to suggest this gal is ready fresh off of the bench
race 5 average clarity
6 Bullfighter laid up for 2 months but training like Baff means business with very sharp drills for this level of racing...especially like seeing a bullet drill just 3 days go
4 Bullybullybully best set of drills for a layoff runner from the Mulhall barn in some time...sure seems ready to roll
1 Uncle Don on the right end of the learning curve...exits a key race where 2nd and 3rd place came back to win their next out and this gelding beat them by 6 1/2 furlongs
3 Proud Hillbilly rider/trainer team have hit the board the 7 times they have teamed up together....closer gets plenty of pace to fire into
race 6 average clarity
5 Dani Strikes green on the run-up and then ran wide in her MSW debut last....Carava is much better 2nd time out of the box so I expect this filly to settle down and run a more professional race today
4 Chase The Fever 5 year old mare (versus a bunch of babies) has trained super over the years but has had to go on the shelf a couple of times...training sharply well once again and finally gets to race
2 MuberryLane impressive tightly spaced training finishing off with a bullet gate work says go go go in MSW debut...barn has been firing lately
7 Tiz A Bud Girl works seem good enough to consider somewhat dangerous in her MSW debut run....Salder has had a great past year with 1sters
race 7 average clarity
1 Good Measure impressive in all three lifetime races and looks like the front end is his once again...rated kindly in wire to wire win last....basically with a hand ride across the finish wire
4 Never only lifetime race at today's 1 mile distance was an impressive 3 1/2 length win...runs best off pace and I believe that is why Baffert is taking the blinkers off
5 Self Made Man consistent sort is 7 out of 9 "place" on the AW...works say he's probably ready for his return to the race wars
race 8 average clarity
3 Money Lover best set of drills for a Kruljac 1ster in a long time....very reliable trainer when he shows good works
1 Sibersky found lots of trouble in debut including sitting too far back in a paceless race.....can be a ton late here if settles done with that learning experience under his belt
5 Ms Treasure Hunt training as if well prepared to be ready to roll in her MSW debut
2 Miss Peanut training like a much improved animal after 2 dull starts and a long layoff......did flash some speed last Summer...expecting this one to be up close early...big price
6 Santina also training well enough to be considered dangerous in her debut into the racing world
