Tampa Tuesday/Pick 4

[Bigsmc]

The more I look at Race 6 the more I love the 1, Spanish Springs. If none of the firsters are monsters, this gelding should be tough.

He exits a tough MSW tilt (quickly becoming a key race) on Dec 23, where my notes have the winner, Curious Tiger, under tight wraps and could've won by much more (watch out for his next one). The second placed finisher from that Dec 23 race, OK Deputy, won the final race on Saturday, a MSW going 7f, by 4 lengths. The third place finisher from Dec23, Bushy's Yield was "roughed at the start" of the Saturday night cap, was last after a half mile in a 12 horse field and still finished a respectable 4th.

Spanish Springs, finished and even 5th in the aforementioned Dec 23 race, is dropping to 25k, adding blinkers (Jessie Garcia will hustle from the rail), and has an okay maintenance work last friday. All systems go....
