Rich’s Ranks
Race 1: 6 Furlongs – Bias: Tactical Speed, 1-7 Fair and 8+ little Bonus
1 – DOOZY BATZ – chalky as can be but speed numbers so much better than the rest minus 1st timers
5 – KEEN CONTENDER – big drop in class, 3rd off the bench and third was best in last three race cycle
3 – HERE’S PERFECTION – bullet and go 1st timer at a big price, not a lot to beat aside from the favorite
7 – ROWDY DAISY – should be involved from gate to wire
Suggested Wager: $1 Double 1/1,2,6,9,10,12
Race 2: 6 Furlongs – Bias: Tactical Speed, 1-7 Fair and 8+ little Bonus
9 – PENETRATOR – broke his maiden here with a career best effort coming off the bench like today
1 – HAPPY BOY ROCKET – down in class with two really good works bookending a pair of maintenance workouts
10 – ST ANDREWS – Robertino Diodoro 30% claim and drop, two nice works since joining the new barn
2 – DARK TIMBER – big drop in class after chasing some super fast fractions in last, should move forward in round two off the sidelines and likely to catch a slower pace today
Suggested Wager: $0.50 Trifecta: 1,9,10/1,9/1,2,6,9,10
Race 3: 1 1/16 Miles – Bias: Stalkers slight outside in 7-1, Small Bonus 8+
4 -LEADER OF MEN – TLRSP# but struggles at OP 5/0-1-0, works at OP are blah too
7 – FLOWERS FOR LISA – likely pacesetter in a race that is filled with horses that are usually mid pack and back
2 – COLOSI – left arrow horse with numbers that are as good as the others, take the higher odds
5 – FLATOUT WINNER – has the top LP and is a neck from winning 3 in a row
Suggested Wager: $0.50 Trifecta: 2,4,7/4,7/2,4,5,6,7
Race 4: 6 Furlongs – Bias: Tactical Speed, 1-7 Fair and 8+ little Bonus
8 – EV’S SHERMAN – better fraction at 7 1/2f v 6f with significant jump in EP #s, should be close to the same in round two off the bench
4 – SINNER’S SIN – very likely pacesetter with the top EP/LP combo by a smidgen, very consistent performer post debut
2 – ATLANTIC DANCER – 3SP# increases in a row, +9 LP edge, going to put Chris P angle to the test
5 – TOWN BRANCH – another Chris P test, third after a layoff and was better in last half of last start
Suggested Wager: $0.50 Pick Three: 4,8/ALL/2,8
Race 5: 1 1/16 Miles – Bias: Stalkers slight outside in 7-1, Small Bonus 8+
1 – CASH ROCKET – mispriced or my mistake? Top EP/LP combo and simulator says fair odds are closer to 2-1? What’s going on here?
3 – WARTIME HERO – been off since May, decent workout pattern getting ready, mixed bag off the bench although career best effort came after almost a year in the barn
12 – PRIMER DIMER – left arrow horse that is dropping multiple classes for tr Diodoro, third off the break and moving to jy Christian Torres that win 7 of 20 to start OP campaign
4 – OPTIMUS KAT – Most LP in the race and should not be too far off the pace
Suggested Wager: $0.50 Trifecta: 1,3,12/1,3/1,2,3,4,12
Race 6: 1 Mile – Bias: Tactical Speed with a Definite Inside Out Bias
2 – INVULNERABLE – has a +10 at2f and +7 at4f, and gets 1st Lasix, which can amplify early speed
8 – HIT SHOW – tied for the TLRSP in his first route, likely to improve in 2nd route and 2nd off the bench, +7 LP edge
6 – PROTÉGÉ – needs to run back to its debut, second start blew a tire, yet another 1st time Lasix
3 – GIROOVIN – the other to TLRSP# with much faster fractions last out
Suggested Wager: $1 Double: 2,8/ALL

8 – I’M THE BOSS OF ME – been solid at OP 4/2-0-1, top EP/LP combo
1 – ARI OAKLEY – TLRSP# and resume says she’ll up it in her 2nd off the bench, rides the 23% winning rail
2 – CARRIBEAN CAPER – better ATB in first start following a break, limited PP say a major jump is possible in round two off the break
7 – PRETTY BIRDIE – tough call over the 3, but drops from a G3 in July and some strong works getting ready to return
Suggested Wager: $0.50 Trifecta: 1,2,8/1,8/1,2,3,7,8

1 – LAST SAMURAI – drops from a trio of Graded races, 3rd off the bench with some brilliant late #s at times
