NY, Cali carryovers enhance Holiday action
By kasept. Filed in Uncategorized |
Came away from Saturday feeling like an opportunity was missed as hits at Aqueduct ($96) and Santa Anita ($142) and puny GP conso ($10) fell $35 short of squaring the total investments on multis. Having $19.20 Star Channel and $37.40 Charlie A as “C’s” on the Gulfstream P5 was two too many, as one needed to be an “A” or both “B’s” to catch the $1,323 P5 and/or $378 P4 prizes. Hope everyone did well. MLK Holiday Monday provides some terrific racing and carryovers at both Aqueduct (Jimmy Winkfield) and Santa Anita (San Pedro). The Smarty Jones anchors the Oaklawn card.

POST-SCRATCHES
4th: MSW, 4+, 8.5f (P6, P3, DD)
No surprises here as the favorites stand out. Distorted Dream (6-1) offers a little value and will be in front early, but note Frame adds blinkers for the stretchout and could prompt or duel..

Next Best: #1 Winter Games 3-1 2nd
Exotics Use: #3 Frame 5-2 3rd
Super Add: #6 Distorted Dream 6-1 5th
5th: CLM, F&M-4+, 1m-70y (G/S, P3, DD)
Esler barn going very well but Taylor Jagger appears a vulnerable 5-2 favorite in a well matched field. Levine sends Andy Berg’s $8k Chicago discovery Silver Crush whose recent races more than good enough for this. Mess in a Dress returns to claiming ranks and her races for $20-25k fit well. Could get loose under bug girl Rice who has been holding her own. Note also Araya’s 2nd runner, C C’s Pride, owns win at PEN 10/18 that would impact here. Tough spot in challenging P6..
