Hollywood for Saturday 4 December 2010
[private]
Sure like the morning line prices on our top pick in the last 4 races. I would definitely save a few chips for those races.
Â
race 1Â Â Â slightly below average clarity
1 Clocker Moment  not much running in MSW but the drop should really help because this looks like a soft group
2 Warren's Rough Luv  another dropping into a seemingly soft spot...decent history racing with short rest like today
3 Red Rock Run  1st timer is training OK and will be tough if he has just average 1st start ability
Â
race 2Â Â Â slightly above average clarity
7 Call Me Later  on the right end of the learning curve...appreciates the 6 1/2 furlong distance
5 Polished Nickel  good MSW debut and drops into claiming...2 reassuring works since...same race fits...move forward would be very tough
 4 Got Milch  improved fig 1st after the claim was run on the turf.....should be able to produce the same on the AW
Â
race 3Â Â average clarity
2 Portland  solid race 1st under the guidance of Carava......Rosario sticks around...maybe even more today
5 Emily Pearl  bad trip at Fno and still closed fast late....that race fits....but....can he run the same on the AW ?
6 The Zapana  needs a forward move of a couple of lengths....recent solid 5/8ths drill hints at an improved run today
Â
race 4Â Â Â average clarity
2 Fairway Road  very solid consistent efforts whenever placed up for tag like today...solid work series
5 Paleo  seems like an overdo drop for a guy like O'Neill......most of career fits well at today's 20K level
1 Candy's Pleasure  speed of the speed but can P Val break out fast from the difficult 1 hole at 6 1/2F ?....would have been top pick if he didn't draw post 1
Â
race 5Â Â Â average clarity
8 Unex Dali  lone lifetime race run in GB sure looks superior......3 tightly spaced drills say this colt feels good
1 Parable useful MSW debut on the turf and Gaines is stellar 2nd time on the lawn....works are sharper too
5 T. K. Fortysix  good stretch run from far back in a 5F sod affair.....bred to go long....works are better than ever...believe we see best ever today
7 Including Wardo  3 straight decent route races on the AW and the turf....will need a clever trip from the 7 hole...snatched the 1 hole in his last
Â
race 6Â Â Â average clarity
5 Ashee  very solid races lately at a higher level....drop should make her the one to beat
6 She's Very Rare  mare finally gets what she excels at....running on th AW...and also gets Gomez
4 River Glow     just claimed from extremely high % trainer...but West is no slouch...big factor if she brings her "A" gameÂ
Â
race 7Â Â Â slightly above average clarity
3 Gotham Devil  4 lifetime route races...2 wins...2 seconds.....should set in a ground saving close up position with reasonable pace to cope with
1 Pop'shands Are Hot many races fit at today's level and the works hint at maybe best ever....but....loves to hang when it counts
6 Miguel's Mascot  very solid fig in last....has tactical speed and may need it because there isn't a lot a pace in this affairÂ
10 Jack's Wild  hints he is on the rebound......owns some very significant backs numbers...tough post but Gomez is up
Â
race 8Â Â Â slightly above average clarity
3 Soul Candy  exits a very fast heat verified by strong efforts by many who exited the race....and it was his 1st ever on the AW...and has trained impressively since
4 Aggie Engineer  loves the lead and sure looks like he has it here
5 Dakota Phone  won B C Mile but greatly benefited from trailing in a race with nasty fractions up front...still he is a very nice consistent Stakes horse who will need to show some of his tactical speed in a race that doesn't appear to be to kind to anyone who sits too far back
race 9Â Â Â average clarity
7 Bombing Two  capable invading rider and trainer....closer gets what he needs....pace up front
1  Desert Dearest   strong grass run at Tup in last and just worked big for his new trainer...closing style fits
3 Sweet And Jazzy   speedster faces plenty of other early speed but race 2 back is strong and P Val is fab. out of the gate
5 Hostile Reaction  very sharp and just claimed at LA...sharp trainer invades...dangerousÂ
4 Dreams Afleet  slipping in form some but a little rebound and plenty of heat up front for this late runner
