Best Bet: Race 11: #2 Waterville 7/2 - tried this one earlier in the meet expecting improvement and got it but just had too much work to do in the stretch. Likes the inner, is getting better and Rosario gets an extra 1/16th to hopefully get the job done today.
Best Value: Race 7 - #4 Love Appeals 6/1 - I was between Redefined and Love Appeals in here and think either or if not both will offer value. It’s possible that Love Reigns will just prove too good and I’ve been a big fan of hers but surely this couldn’t have been the plan. Redefines has some nice races to get back to and isn’t fair off her if improved and ready to go today. I ultimately decided I wanted to go with Love Appeals however. I thought her debut was excellent and portended big things to come. The second race things didn’t go right and she really excelled when cutting back to what I think she really wants to do - sprint. I thought she was tons the best down at Monmouth in a race I’m not sure they really wanted to run in but Flo took her a bit further back than needed in my opinion. Like the switch back to Manny today. Draws nice and he should be able to get her into a nice spot and she possesses some real kick in the lane when getting her trip.
Good luck.
