Handicappers CornerÂ
Sure like the 8 to 1 morning line on the 1A in the 4th race. Anything over 4 to 1 and I'd suggest a wager across the board on her or at least key around her in your gimmicks.
Also recommend a pick 3 part wheel that starts in the 6th
3,5,6,7,8 with 5 with 1,2,7,8   20 bets
Â
race 1Â Â Â above average clarity
5 Devil's Mate  strong debut chasing a solid pace after a slightly tardy start.....Vadlez rides fresh off 3 wins on Saturday...good history with speed type horses
3  Flashy Traveler  barn has been waking up some......solid late running efforts in 5 of her last 6 races
1 Misstrailcityzone  low low percentage barn but ran a much improved effort 2 back on the AW and then tried the grass above her head...back where belongs today
Â
race 2Â Â below average clarity
3 Halfaponderosa ran awfully well in only to races at today's distance versus better...started career for 25K so why not risk her for 16K
1 Stanford Dolly  sure liked her return to a sprint in her last where she pounded out a solid fig for this level
Â
race 3   average clarity
4 Led Advantage  dangerous barn just claimed off of 3 solid route races which can set her finishing ability up nicely in today's 7F sprint....4 lbs off helps as well
6 Indiara  nice turf tightener in last should have her fit and ready for today's drop back into maiden claiming
1 Lady Of Hope  false weak fig in maiden debut last because she sat too far off a dogged pace set by the front runners....managed to close 2 horse lengths which was as good as you could expect given the false pace up front
Â
race 4Â Â Â slightly above average clarity
1A  L. A. Devine  ran a powerful race on the hill in her 1st grass race and then ran off form for an extended period.....long necessary layoff....training very sharply for a reliable barn when they show good morning work
7 Richelle's Joy  all three grass races (which were on the hill) are good efforts....experience factor is a major plus in SA hill course races
5 Lazered  love the sprint turf pedigree for this filly.....nice tune-up om the AW....should be fit and ready for what may turn out to be her preferred surface
Â
race 5Â Â Â average clarity
3 Gold Stock  exits a fast heat both in final time and pace...finished well in both races on the AW past 6F
7 Smokey Beau  last two sprints on the AW our par like efforts for today's level
2 Waafi  plenty of pace should help his late running effort......in tight and way too wide in last....Rosario will be out to make amends
1 Major General  in the spiral down mode as far as the claiming ranks are concerned....should fly late if still healthy enough
Â
race 6Â Â Â average clarity
3 Hitters Last Out shipper from GG takes the significant drop out of MSW coming off a very bad trip in his debut...blinkers on and has been training most impressively at Slr
8 Delago  popped his best ever in his last with the addition of blinkers in his last race...cold barn could use a win
6 A Pint For Mary  both efforts under 6F with the blinkers on are decent efforts for this level
7 Rage On  weak connections but this gelding showed some life after breaking a little slow and rushing wide....trained like a runner before that debut race and continues to train like one since
Â
race 7Â Â Â average clarity
5 Bolinas  just missed in his last which was his 1st ever on the grass.....training better than ever since....highly likely he fires best ever todayÂ
2 Belongs To Gotham  very consistent sort and proven on the sod....tossed rider in the late stretch in last but has a sharp reassuring drill since
3 Arkham Asylum  has done little wrong in 3 lifetime sprints on the AW....bred well for the lawn and bred well enough to get 1 mile
4 Ringolevio  training terrific for the new and higher win % barn...like an improved horse....am concerned by has weak grass pedigree and his 1 dull grass race
Â
race 8Â Â Â average clarity
1 Wylie N Wyatt  believe this 1st time is ready....5F so keep your fingers crossed for a decent break at the bell
2 Mr. Braggadocio  fired best ever in last with 1st time blinkers....good speed early in last 3 races bodes well for today's abbreviated speed friendly sprint distance of 5 furlongs
8 Call For Justice  for starter is training as if ready to roll in maiden debut for a small and unproven barn
7 Pride Of Wilshire  1ster is bred to be a good sprinter....works aren't too bad for a barn that doesn't push them too hard in the morning
3 Fire In The Wind  last race run with 10 weeks off between races fits in this spot.....10 weeks off again and fairly decent works
