DEL MAR Thursday

[The Spaniard]

R1: the terrific workouts indicate that extraterrestrial :6: MASOCHISTIC is for real. A strong pace could set things right for the unexposed deep closer :3: MYTHICAL STORM, and put him into the exacta.

1st & NP

[The Spaniard]

R2: :3: GETAWAY KEYS makes progress in every race and is exacta shortlist. :4: MUDGE is feeling good after the long layoff

1.04.4
1.03.3
1.01.0 (over the track)
59.3 (over the track)

and can repeat her good debut. Debutant :7: VORD QUEEN coul win by default in this modest field.

exacta box :3: :4: :7:

2nd & 3rd

I didn't like the favorite :(

[The Spaniard]

R3: :4: THE CLEANERS has run 3 races in the claiming ranks: 2 big wins and a second (with a high figure). Here the drop is deep and can reconcile the horse with victory. (decent runs on turf and cushion track.

NP

truth is that at 4-1 The Cleaner was cold in the betting, the winner's form was pretty ugly, but was hot in the betting.

It's so tough this year Del Mar!!!!
I'm going nuts!!! :confused:

[The Spaniard]

R4: As a follower of the British turf I can't help but pick the regally bred daughter of Galileo :3: AWESOME DIAMOND. Biancone knows how to strike with a debutant and she looks great in the paddock. :8: VISARNO and :9: HASHTAG STORMY for the exacta.

3rd & 1st :confused:

[The Spaniard]

R5: a race without favorite... Debutante :5: UNIVERSITY PARK shows a couple of very quick 3f workouts in the spring (34.4B & 34.4 H), and a series of fast 5f works in the last 5 weeks: speed + stamina. A wire to wire threat with the top frontrunning jockey of Southern Californa.

NP

[The Spaniard]

R6: :1: PEARL DE VERE and :9: BIRD IN LOVE are fillies on the way to there pick form, both have back class (MSW winner & 2nd in a MSW turf). Ex box.

2nd & NP

[The Spaniard]

R7: :4: LEMON DE ORO deserves an opportunity as a turf sprinter. Her best races were when cutting back from route to 7f in Keeneland and when close third to a couple of good runners at this level on dirt. She's got a sibling winner of the Moscow Criterium (gr.2, 5f-turf)

3rd

[The Spaniard]

R8: Blake Heap's got a huge ROI with first time starters (27%) and maiden claimer debutants, that means they win but they don't look atractive in the PPs. :10: AVA'S BALLET might be one of these. The favorite :1: FAITH PROOF for the exacta box.
