Rich’s Picks:
Race 1: 6 Furlongs – Bias: Early Speed, 26% w2w – PP: Rail Bonus, 2-7 Under Par, 8+ Best
6 – WILD NUGGET – small drop from Toga, typical 2nd race improvement for likely pacesetter
4 – SHAKIN THE BELLE – a little more late speed and has come closest to matching par
3 – C SUITE BOY – MSW dropper? But is MSW at Belterra and Hawthorne really a drop? some upside in just 3rd career start
2 – FORCED ERRORS – sings of life in his last – better ATB – same move forward today gets it done
Race 2: 1 Mile – Bias: Early Speed, 42% w2w – PP: Big Rail Bonus, 2/3 Fair, 4-7 Been Bad, 8+ Fair
5 – ANTHRACITE – possible pacesetter – drops in class after TLRSP#+ 10

Wide open race
1 – WINTER’S GHOST – going to take a shot in an open race – speed fade last out, 3rd up with a pair of maintenance works including his best published – rail advantage
2 – FIRST GLIMPSE – 3 SP# increases including the TLRSP# +6 and drops in class in 2nd start off the sidelines
4 – ALLABOUTTHEMONEY – best AQ record 13/2-3-2 – a little faster early and late in last
7 – BARESE – has by far the top AQ effort – been facing the toughest – pretty big drop – something wrong and looking to sell or hoping to cash a check?
Race 4: 1 1/16 Miles Turf -Bias: Early Speed, 18% w2w – PP: Big Inside Out Bias
7 – SALVATION – any improvement from debut and it will be hard for the rest to beat – finished 2nd last out – 3rd place horse came back to win next out
10 – MAX N FIFO – bullet work after debut – room to move plenty higher in 2nd career start
1 – RETEKO – no matter what the horse looks like on paper – can’t pass on the rail winning at 37%
3 – MYTHICAL MAN – funky trip as the 5/2 FAV in TOGA MSW 80k debut – better trip today and we could find out why he was the chalk
Race 5: 6 Furlongs Outer Turf – Bias: Early Speed, 38% w2w – PP: Rail Discount, 2/3 Fair, 4-7 Best, 8+ Discount
Open Race as ALL have shown the ability to win at this level
3 – LINARITE – in a race where all have shown they can win – no need to put an even money shot on top – this one sits off the pace and then closes it out
5 – REFLEXIVITY – in case I’m wrong – the even money ML FAV coming off a win under the same conditions
2 – SASSY ALLIE – improved in every race – likely pacesetter – but Manny Franco stays on the 5 instead
6 – TIPSY RUNNER – suppose Irad should be in your picks for an open race
Race 6: 7 Furlongs – Bias: Tactical Speed, 3/10 w2w – PP: Rail Bonus, 2/3 Discount, 4-7 Bonus, 8+ None
6 – DARK DEVIL – runs anything close to his last race and it’s graduation day
1 – HOULTON – 2nd at this level last out – resume says 3rd up should be better than last
2 – WAJDA – 3rd start after a layoff on the MSW drop
4 – MISSOURI RIVER – got to have the other MSW dropper competing at Tier 1 tracks
Race 7: 1 Mile Turf – Bias: w2w or deep closer in the 2 races so far – both from the rail
5 – IN A JAM – class dropper – will make a bold mid move
10 – ROYAL MAJESTY – drops from a pair of G1s where he just missed
9 – DONEGAL MOMENTUM – his muddy race and turf start suggest he might be the best turf horse in the race
2 – TAKE ME TO CHURCH – might have won a G3 last out if he doesn’t collide with a foe – not 100% sure he fits though
Race 8: 6 Furlongs Outer Turf – Bias: Early Speed, 38% w2w – PP: Rail Discount, 2/3 Fair, 4-7 Best, 8+ Discount
7 – TAM I AM – any better in 2nd career race and the rest are running for silver
9 – PRETTY LIZA – another with 2nd race improvement possibly puts her in the winner’s circle
3 – CANDY QUEST – 2.5/3 first timer
11 – SO DARN PRETTY – 2.5 first timer
