Penn National Thursday

[The Spaniard]

R1: stakes winner :1: SPRING DANCE can wire this field if able to build on her good comeback race over a muddy track.

1st ($4.80)

[The Spaniard]

R2: :6: MARSTON'SMILLS was a good 2 year old but in 2013 something has gone wrong, maybe first time blinkers has a positive effect. Stalker and regular :8: XANTOS is the alternative if blinkers doesn't work

:8: 1st ($4.20)

[The Spaniard]

R3: With the favorite (4)MINDFULNESS having some stamina doubts, and with a quick pace guaranteed by (1)COLOUR PORTRAIT (21.4) , this race could go to the cheap closer :6: PASSION RIVER

3rd

[La billos]

I'll jump in and go with the 2 off the claim

good call, it was tough to swallow, but a good trainer can transform an animal, the mystery is they do the transformation in 3 weeks...

[La billos]

Thanks, figured Penn owed me after 2 2nds the first 2 races haha

[The Spaniard]

R4: speedy :4: ECSTATIC DREAMER is dropping big and is a clear wire to wire threat. Deep closer :5: SOUTHERN JERZEE in case the pace is too hot.

win & win & exacta box

NP & 3rd

wrong analysis about the speed of :4: :ThmbDown:

[The Spaniard]

race 1: wire to wire

race 2: stalked in second (the frontrunner finished 2nd)

race 3: wire to wire

race 4: wire to wire

[La billos]

race 1: wire to wire

race 2: stalked in second

race 3: wire to wire

race 4: wire to wire


Yup Pres and Penn both have pretty big speed bias tonight. 2 just wired as Pres as well last race

race 1,2,3,4,6: Wire to Wire
race 5: off the pace

[The Spaniard]

R5: speedy and consistent :8: COOLATIN meets a slow bunch and has a good opportunity to be second time lucky. He knows how to stalk if needed. The danger is :7: AWESOME WIZARD, back in sprint.

2nd & 3rd

detected a possible speed bias.............. a closer wins :mad:

[La billos]

Going with the 8 as well. Good Luck :ThmbUp:

[La billos]

Jump in for the 7th at Pres. A bunch of front speed so will go with the 3 who can wire or rate. 2 for 2 over this track @ 6-1

blew the turn... not sure if he would be the winner maybe... the odds were great

[La billos]

Yeah, he got out great. Instead of taking the rail he goes 3 wide the whole race and fades. Too bad

over this tapeta to save ground and leave a good kick for the home stretch is the right way, like on turf, but the jockey went like riding on a dirt track...

[La billos]

Penn Race 6: Would have played the 6 is he wasn't scratched but will try a shot with the 3. He's finished 12, 14, and 15 lengths back but gets back to a route. Could very well fall on his face...

[The Spaniard]

R6: :9: GO FAST GOLD good 2 sprints after layoff, back routing now.....

I liked :6: and :8: but they are non runners

[The Spaniard]

enough for me. These nickel maidens are ghostly affaires.
