Handicappers Corner
Recommended pick 3 part wheel starts in the 3rd race
1,3,6 with 3,5,6,7 with 2,4,5,7,8 60 bets
race 1 average clarity
1 Lime Rock Revenge our top pick in his last race and our top pick once again....plenty of rest after running back in 4 days in last.....outstanding drills since.....believe makes a strong move forward today
2 Gab Power both lifetime races showed par like ability for today's race
race 2 average clarity
3 Indian Ashton heck of a long way to ship to run in a 25K claimer....Ward is solid in short turf sprints and so is the horse
5 Shadow Of Illinois old man has been freshened up and may fire his best....won his only Dmr turf sprint quite easily last Summer
6 Maui Mark blinkers on to help show a little more early gas turning back to a sprint......long hiatus from the track but has run very well fresh in the past
race 3 average clarity
1 Lost Prophet 3 very big positives....much better trainer.....much better rider....2nd after the layoff
3 Indiara very solid figs in his last two races......exits a somewhat key race in his last
6 East Lake Shore may have needed last....continues to train like a runner...chance to be a big surprise here
race 4 average clarity
3 Defying Logic price shot has been laid up a long time but is training sharply....competed consistently well in the Spring of 2009 with a very low % jock riding....M Garcia is up today
5 Satellite decent return to the race wars in last and good shot to handle the claiming price rise with a logical move move today
7 De Car Guy long overdo drop to earn a few bucks and pay some bills.....earned only a month's worth of charges in 2010
race 5 average clarity
5 Warren's Moon learn to rate in her last and that should come in handy in this field abundant with speed....and Dmr isn't exactly a front runners paradise
2 Melon Up has shown the most talent but needs to avoid a suicidal speed duel
8 Winning Valentine well bred filly tossed a clunker in only lifetime race which was run last Summer....training like a different animal in 2010
7 Suitable Attire wound up pretty well for her maiden debut with some solid interval training
race 6 average clarity
4 Roar Of Applause classic M Mitchell....large drop to score if the horse doesn't live up to expections...works say fit and ready
3 Autocue love when a consistent sort runs 1st after a claim like today....only race at Dmr was possibly his lifetime best
8 Troubletimesthree strong grass fig for this level in his layoff last......runs fine on the AW.......bit concerned about the large drop down
1 Super Harmony P Val on the front end of things is always dangerous
race 7 average clarity
1 Softly Singing loved Dmr last Summer....very sharp work series suggest 1st class barn knows it and has pointed this filly to be peaking at Dmr
5 Via Veneto good chance to get what she responses best to...a good stalking position behind a reasonable pace
2 Fund Raiser seems like the most likely leader in this field and has a shot to wire.....doesn't hurt to have the team on Baff/Beja to get the job done either
race 8 below average clarity
10 Desperate Measures decent maiden debut both in pace and final time...good shot if moves forward
3 Chk Chk Boom debut race and her last race fit decently....right to improve with 1st time blinkers
8 Cosafina Carina has always trained well before and after a clunker of a debut...gets another look on the drop out of MSW which may have been a gimme
11 Sean S red hot Cassity barn maybe ready with this 1ster....they pulled one over at 11 to 1 with a 1ster 3 weeks ago
5 Table For One bombed in last but Bejarano stays aboard which hints we may see a rebound to her effort two back which fits
