Leg A – Laurel race 9
1, 5, 6, 8
Not overly confident going 4 deep, but look for #6 Funny Book to run a big race.
Leg B – Santa Anita 4th
4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10
In a race difficult to gauge I’m tossing two logical horses Cantankerous Clyde (barn is ice cold) and Great Legacy
(Pedigree doesn’t exactly scream 5/12 furlongs, despite eye catching workouts). Interested to see Rosario land on Machowsky first-timer Dixie Passion, and think long-shot New York Baby could be ready at first asking.
Leg C – Gulfstream 9th
3, 6, 10
Most of the major players drew unfavorable outside posts, but 4 scratches this morning make it less problematic. Assuming Jet Propulsion and the Dutrow horse assure a more than honest pace.
Leg D – Golden Gate 4th
10
Plenty of speed here, and looking for Russell Baze to give Saipan a perfect stalking trip and mow them down late. Just missed the photo finish in last race with the exact same conditions.
Leg E – Santa Anita 5th
6
Insane to single a horse that’s 1 for 12, but there’s not a horse in the race that’s in even remotely good form (other than Raise Again who just beat a weak field to break his maiden). Banking on the big class drop, solid connections, good workout pattern and history running against much, much tougher than these.
