Gulfstream, 3-24

[golfer]

Once again, with all the focus on Turfway's Polytrack, thought it would be a good idea to take on Gulfstream:

Race 1: #4 Love Snucks, stumbled at start in last, previous was very fast, haven't checked yet, is Hills still 0-fer the meet? #3 First by Five, shortens up, dangerous... #2 Cuties Cloud, team Graci, and #5 Hope to Dance, both solid, chance to hit board at prices..#'s 6 & 7, both have isolated tops that could win this, but not for me!

Race 2: #4 Northern Linkage, stretches out, but 2 of last 3 races would be good enough here...#2 Successful Return, gets the rail, a little slow coming in, but has a nice pattern, should improve.

Race 3: #6 My Lipstick, getting weight from the field due to Cardoso, nice pattern coming in...#7 Seattle Ice is fastest, but shows a previous reaction to most recent number...#5 Howdy Partner, dangerous for Zaidie, but seems better suited for sprinting.

Race 4: #2 Big Booster, probable favorite makes first start for Walder, looks strong...#4 Sir Jackie, makes first start for Klesaris, turf to dirt, great closer... #1 Letterman's Humor, and #3 Itsawonderful Life, are longshots to use underneath.

Race 5: Obviously assuming they will be on the turf today, #1 T Harry, makes first start for Pino, coming of deceptively good race...#8 Ballet Fever, solid pattern, should run well...#6 Dukes Flying, comes off a competitive dirt fig, switches back to turf..#4 Vorhees Ballad, and #7 Scotts Time, both fit with these.

Race 6: Evenly matched $10,000 claimer, #3 Jumpin Jazz Man, comes off a reaction when wheeled back quickly, has more rest for this, should improve...#1a Legacy's Honor, #5 Doctor Voodoo, and #7 Refinery Road, all solid, none would be a surprise...#2 Lively Voyage, ran big last Saturday, don't like him coming back in 1 week.

Race 7: contentious Turf Stakes, #3 Storm in May is the big name, will probably be overbet.. going with #6 Soldiers Dancer, solid and fast.. and #2 Duveen, Romans has different horse since switch to turf, continues to improve...nothing wrong with #5 Brainy Benny or #7 Brooklyns Smart.

Race 8: This is one tough race, very little separating 10 of the 12 horses in here. 2 longshots that stand out to me are #2 Dragon Fi, and #10 Zambezi Warrior...#9 Dr Googles Boogles, and #12 Winstrella, both dangerous, but likely favorites. #1 Andolini, 2nd start for Motion, and #5 Ourtimetodance, 1st start for Attfield, are interesting... like I said, this one is TOUGH!

Race 9: Turf allowance, the standout is #5 Saratog Saint, nice spacing for this, and last 2 were excellent...2B Trueheart, 2 nice turf sprints leading up to the stretchout today...#1 Bedford Falls, comes in off very nice dirt race, but that seems to be his better surface...using #4, #7 and #7 underneath. edit: 2b Trueheart scratched

Race 10: Noticed that some think #7 Pilates should be a single in here, can win, but don't think singling is good idea...#1 Sweeten with Gold, improving every start at 3 and gets the rail...#3 Tift, Breen shipper gets lasix, dangerous... #8 Haventgotmywings, should improve 2nd out for Romans, although dropping into a claimer is suspicious.

As always, good luck to all, and may your wagering be as good as your capping, or better!!
