AQUEDUCT

POST-SCRATCHES

6th: OC/ALW, 3+, 6.5f (P4, P3, DD)

Whitmore returns to races and is using this as tightener toward Oaklawn season assignments. Tricky group to read with quixotically campaigned Summer Revolution SCR’D involved..

Off the turf and other than Lover’s Key SCR’D, there is barely a filly in here that gives any indication she can stand up on dirt..

DEL MAR

POST-SCRATCHES

6th: 34th Bayakoa (G2), F&M-3+, 8.5f (P4, P3, DD)

Feels like the coming out party for Vale Dori with lone issue how much pace pressure materializes via Gloryzapper and Desert Madam..

Next Best: #3 Gloryzapper 3-1
Best Value: #8 Desert Madam 12-1
Exotics Use: #6 Wild At Heart 5-1

7th: 75th Hollywood Derby (G1), 3yo, 9f-T (P3, DD)

Typically terrific edition of this late season standard with Eastern invaders from Brown, Motion, Weaver and McGaughey looking to have edge over locals. Isotherm flashed talent as a 2yo and then missed prime portion of campaign with minor issues. Arrived early to acclimate, has versatile style and turn of foot and can light up the board on best..

Best Value: #6 Isotherm 12-1
Next Best: #1 Beach Patrol 9-2
Exotics Use: #2 Camelot Kitten 7-2
Super Add: #11 Annals of Time 6-1

8th: MSW, 2yo, 6f (DD)

As discussed with Jon White Friday, deep group of juvy colts that has look of important race. Both Bafferts and both D’amatos are major players and Hollendorfer’s Sheer Flattery, bested by Mastery last time, has big experience edge on the firsters..

Most Likely: #4 Sheer Flattery 3-1
Best Value: #12 American Anthem 9-2
Next Best: #11 Iliad 7-2
Exotics Use: #7 City Storm 15-1

8: 4 (A), 11-12 (B), 3-7-13 (C)
9: 3-5-6 (A), – (B), 1-4-10 (C)

Simple (A+B): 2x8x3x3 = 144 x .50 = $72
All A’s: 2x4x1x3 = $24 ($12 for .50)

Good luck!
