Gulfstream contra-plays 1/3

[nobeyerspls]

Last year well over thirty different jockeys won races at GP. Since most of the play is on the top riders, better payouts happen when a 2nd tier or obscure jockey rides the winner. If you believe that any licensed jock can win with the right horse, here are some live ones for today:

1. #11 Skip Away Belle (6-1) Baird
2. #2 Swift Billy (6-1) Fuentes
3. #5 Spirit Line (4-1) Trujillo
5. #9 Square Deal (12-1) Douglas
6. #7 Galligan Road (20-1) Aguilar
7. #10 Atwell (8-1) Trujillo

It may serve one well to tread lightly with today's opening card at GP. Between the vast number of layoff returns, the bursting at the seams full fields, the newly turned 3 yo maiden specials, etc, etc. one may find some outstanding prices, but a great deal of spreading may be in order.

An added note on NBPS's post, if Trujillo is riding for Wesley Ward/the Ramseys dismiss the thought of value, as last year, they rocked. Including all of Ward's owners, actually. As a result, little value there. Other trainers with Trujillo will offer better.

Another jock to note may be Lezcano, most especially on turf as he's 18%, and often moves a bit under the radar.

A couple of other trainers that scored last year with value, if I recall, though I don't have last year's stats, were Fred Warren, Stanley Ersoff, Daniel Hurtak and one I KNOW did so, repeatedly, Javier Negrete.

In the winter based only fellas, I'd look at anything McPeek and Romans have running--in any race.

Again, good luck guys.

Disagree with Romans on the trainer side, loads of good jocks to fly under the radar, like ET Baird in the 1 st ;)
