75k Best Turn @ Aqu
The #1 Abbondanza looked impressive breaking her mdn and may go off the fav off a big fig. And Jerkens #2 Smokume has the class. But I've had some success with NY Breds in open company lately, so I'll go with #5 Scary Bob who upset a minor stakes 2 back and may do again at a decent price.
100K Essex @ Oak
#1 Pie N Burger won a SA stakes on Breeders Cup day, but hasn't been seen since. #3 Crafty Shaw is a consistent gamer who will be overbet. Lo and behold, I spot a NY bred, #2 Private Emblem, 3-3 at Oak, and a fair price.
100k Chou Croute @ FG
Amoss takes the blinkers off (33% move) of #2 Spirited Maiden, 5/1 ML, who is super sharp and working consistently. The M/L fav #4 Tropical Blossom has west coast class but is unraced since Nov 29.
100K G3 Palm Beach Stakes @ GP
I'll probably pass this one as fav #1 Kitten's Joy with JD looks awful tough. But if the odds on #2 Commendation drift upwards I may take a shot as trainer Motion is competent in this type of spot.
60K Suncoast @ TB
#1 Wild Speed, 4/1 ML, looks good from the #1 post in his first distance try. Has drawn away in his sprint wins, and won a similiar stakes 2 back.
100k Sam F. Davis @ TB
Zito brings a Triple Crown hopeful, #12 The Cliffs Edge, I guess as a prep for the Tampa Bay Derby. He's won two graded stakes, and I may be nuts to bet against him, but I'll try #8 Misguided Left who likes the track and should like the distance.
Heavy rains predicted for LA, so the G2 Buena Vista @SA will probably come off the turf
