Hollywood for Sunday 10 July 2011
[private]
So So card but that is what I said Friday night and it was bombs away! Wide open race cards can send you home with a wide smile or a hanging head.
race 1 average clarity
6 Roman Charity broke slow and ran wide in last for a solid move in the right direction...better journey today can take this
1 Halfapondarosa Eurton/Bejarano are the new hot team so my guess is this horse is ready fresh off the bench and fits if she is
3 Church Avenue race lacks speed and this gal appears to have the most
race 2 average clarity
6 Hunter Creek hard to argue with 10 for 23 at the distance...comes off a strong effort as well
4 Sir Bell layoff drop-down sure looks ready to roll fresh with some solid drills at SA
2 Kingsville wide with pace in latest somewhat hides a nice forward move
5 Gilligan fell off some in last but still won.....same race is beatable even on the drop....rebound to 2 back and he is the one to overcome
race 3 average clarity
5 Red Door Drive double barrel action from Baffert.....shot to stalk the lead and ponce....3 wins and 5 2nd's in 10 starts on the AW is impressive
1 Indian Firewater the other Baffert horse...capable of significant pace....can lead or sit close here and doesn't give it up easily
race 4 average clarity
1 Coming Thru only race (last race) with the blinkers off on the AW is a par like effort for today's class
5 Cook Inlet both lifetime route races fit well in this spot...continues to work like another good effort can occur
6 Lord Vronsky good move forward in last in a sprint and only route race is quite a bit better than appears in print...training sharply
4 Tommy D' Horsey Canani is not a good 1st time trainer and his horse only lost by 1 1/2 lengths so expect more today in 2nd lifetime start
race 5 slightly above average clarity
8 Arresting Officer both lifetime races are powerful efforts...both were fresh races....fresh today and training great for his new trainer
10 Courtside all 3 wins were 2nd out after the layoff.......is this another gimme for a go at Dmr ????......powerful run in winning last....tough call
5 Jacob's Journey nice debut win on the sod in MSW debut....good work series since....should move forward and be a factor as well in 2nd lifetime start
7 Bertran Hill 2 improved efforts since claimed and now we get a positive rider change
race 6 slightly below average clarity
5 Ubetshesroyalty good MSW debut on the turf closing into a lack of pace....a ton if gets a better pace scenario and/or moves forward
7 Ringmistress laid up horse is proven on the lawn and is training up to snuff to be ready fresh off of the bench
2 Stealthy long hiatus from the track...lone race wasn't much but sure is training like a different horse this time around....good grass pedigree
9 My Hope Heart nice ride in debut last having to overcome a difficult post.....gets another tough draw...same assignment for Espinoza
race 7 slightly below average clarity
9 Favorable won last breaking maiden with horse in reserve...feels good running right back for the ever dangerous Mitchell
3 Abovetheinfluence on the improve.....last fits solidly....more would be icing on the cake
7 Guiled Reward last was good but her bad trip run 2 back was very strong and hidden....that race was her lone lifetime run at today's distance
6 Lady Lazer solid speed horse.....Miller trains.....T C Baze up.......3 solid +'s to try and get it accomplished on the front end
race 8 slightly below average clarity
6 Muny 3 for 5 at the distance on the sod and a 43% trainer for the meet....sounds good to me
4 Hudson Landing invader seems sharp in the a.m. and has been facing slightly better
3 Jairzihno last looks like the gimme to drop and be at full throttle today
2 Averoo consistent sort was just snatched at the claiming box...seems like a good sign that Bejarano sticks around to ride....would have rated higher if it wasn't for his winless record at 1 mile on the sod
race 9 average clarity
3 Coal Region Kid way wide trip in last or crushes....Gomez will be out to make amends
10 Alex T sat close to a stout pace and stuck around some.....a solid factor if builds on that improved effort
5 Dancing Joy race 2 back is a par like winning run for this level....should be in the hunt from the get go
4 Sibla's Secret 84 to 1 says not all cranked up for debut.....better run today in 2nd lifetime start......decent route pedigree
1 Superten 1st timer shows some life in the morning....debut long is never an easy task to accomplish
7 Warren's Magic Man shot for a small pie of the pie....could long-shot rider up
