Picks and plays for Thoroughbred racing for Saturday, Dec. 26.
Fair Grounds: Race 1: Allowance (1 1/16 miles, 2:00 p.m. ET)
#7 I Hear You (8-5 on the morning line) has been competing against tougher company on the Kentucky circuit. In a pair of allowance races at Keeneland in October, I Hear You was beaten by the future stakes performers Luck Money and Great Island.

Facing easier company at Fair Grounds should help I Hear You bounce back with a stronger finish. Drawing outside should afford the daughter of Street Sense a clean trip, and trainer Michael Stidham has been on fire at Fair Grounds, going 8-for-27 (30%) to start the meet.
We’ll bet I Hear You over #1 Pseudonym (4-1) and #2 Siamese (3-1) in the exacta.
$15 exacta: 7 with 1,2 ($30)
Good luck!
