Race 1: Grade D. WW’s St. Patrick (7) has been running well, plus is down a grade. Boc’s Constanza (5) has been blazing, so be sure to use the hot runner.
Daily Double: 57/14
Quinella: 7/158
Race 2: Grade S. A King’s race, this one isn’t as packed as the other ones. Pat C Dude (3) is the highest first round finisher, with a 3rd. I can’t see Mymotorsrunnin (1) and Luciano Leggio (4) each having bad races again.
Quinella: 1/24568
Trifecta: 14/145/124568
Race 3: Grade TA, Dubuque Course. Not much in the way of Grade A racers in this one. Go Lucky Ashlee (2) is in position to garner the win. Killer Santa (4) doesn’t have the best box, but has been doing well on the long course, so include him. Boc’s One Rocket (1) is inside, and seems to like it there.
Pick 4: 124/257/35/8
Quinella: 2/134
Race 4: Grade S. The Queens start here. SE’s Tali Ritz (2) and Stickers Drive (5) are the best in the field. Don’t ignore the consistent JD Bar Maid (7); she’s always on the board. The question is Amy Farah Fowler (6). She runs better out of an inside box, but never quits. I’d use in the exotics.
Quinella: 2/567
Trifecta: 2/567 and 27/257/12578
Superfecta: 2/567/5678/a
Race 5: Grade C. Bart’s Twitter (5) is a grade dropper, but doesn’t like the middle all that much. NMS Julie (3) is moving up, but she’s got a great break and rush.
Quinella: 3/2458
Race 6: Grade S. The guys are back. Superior Product (8) can be singled here. Others to worry about include PJ Lay It Down (1), Pat C Sabbath (2) and WW’s Hay Maker (3). It’s your choice to include them in the pick 4.
Quinella: 8/1235
Trifecta: 8/123/123
Superfecta: 8/123/123/a
Race 10: Grade S. The ladies are back. First round winner Springisintheair (4) will be one of the favorites. However, watch out for Pretty McKenna (2) is inside and should like that spot. Sprite Drive (6) had a tough run last time, but I think following AJ Cheramieamour (5) will help her.
Pick 3: 25/37/23
Quinella: 2/3456
Trifecta: 25/256/23456
Superfecta: 25/256/23456/a
Race 11: Grade B. When I looked at the past race times of AJ’s Jozie Jay (3) and Boc’s Edith (7), I wondered why they didn’t win. Then I saw how good of a race they were in. They should be at the front of the pack here.
Quinella: 3/1457
Trifecta: 37/13457/13457
Race 12: Grade S. The Kings wrap up here. It’s a tough one. Winston Wishbone (2), CRV’s Starpower (3) and Superior Panama (6) will get a lot of well-deserved attention. Don’t ignore JF Callin Radar (7) in the exotics.
Quinella: 2/3567
Trifecta: 23/23567/a
Race 14: Grade S. The Queens wrap up the first round. B’s Graciebswift (3) should be able to take care of this field. Boc’s Aunt Bee (1) gets an inside box and should do well. Superior Rasta (4) wants inside; I think she’ll have trouble getting there.
Quinella: 3/148
Trifecta: 3/148/1458
