Presque Isle Predictions
by Mel Daniels
Presque Isle race 2 | 5:50 pm ET Claiming (5) for 3&up going 1mi & 70yds (A)
7-Gospel Hour He is making his second start after a long layoff. He gets major class relief today after making his 2014 debut in a 34k Starter Allowance race at Pimlico, where he was steadied at the 4 1/2 pole and couldn't recover. He is making only his 2nd career start on the synthetic surface in 37 starts. Adds jockey Pablo Morales.
8-Top Dog In 21 career starts, he has won 3 and placed in 4 others. In his last start out 3 weeks ago against the same. He was well placed early and rallied up to the 2nd turn but then raced evenly to finish out of the money. Top jockey Ronald Allen Jr. gets his 2nd straight mount on him.
2-Patriotic Dream He has finished in the money 3 straight times, all on different surfaces. In his last start out against the same, he was well placed on the inside and lacked a late bid finishing 3rd. He could very well get the job done today.
My longshot play is the 3-Candy Run
Picks: 2 - 8 - 7
Good luck and have fun!
