Race 1 -
Untiltherewasyou (15/1) is a sibling to three different dirt sprinters that earned at least $200k or better in their careers. I know this is a Big Brown filly, but hey Big Brown won the Derby on dirt.
Vision of Mine and
Silver Union must be considered too.
Race 2 - It will be an interesting duel between
Shaunna Alexandra (7/2) and
Violet Hour (3/1). Both must be used.
But, throw in
Appearance (8/1), who makes her second start for owner Mike Repole, and
My Place (4/1) just in case.
Race 3 - A near impossible turf marathon. For those that like the "filly vs. males" angle, there is a filly in this race named Clearbrook.
If you forced me to pick, then
Saffron Hall (3/1). But, I can understand using the "all" button.
Race 4 - Why is
Dan's Gold 12/1? Speed figures are fast enough. The other ones to watch are
Jeter (4/1),
Indy Tune (6/1) and
Leilani's Ticket (10/1)
Race 5 - A 5 1/2 F turf sprint...sigh...
I'll chalk out and go with
Animal Style (2/1)
Race 6 - This race is a lot more difficult than how it first appeared on BRIS...initially I thought
Qualify (5/2) would win. After looking at TimeformUS, I don't know anymore.
Code West (3/1) has the best recent figures, but in my mind, I can understand going "all."
Race 7 -
Everything Matters (8/1) has some solid TimeformUS speed figures.
Hope Cross (3/1) has good connections.
Rapid Repair (5/1) is a sibling to Kitten's Point and probably deserves one more shot to prove himself on turf.
Race 8 -
M J Plus (4/1) switches to David Jacobson and almost defeated Cousin Stephen two starts back. The other ones to consider are
Writingonthewall (5/1),
Non Stop (10/1) and
Bug Juice (3/1).
Race 9 - The two horses to have scored at least 100 on TimeformUS last time are
Protonico (3/1) and
Life In Shambles (6/1). Use both, and for a bomb, maybe consider whether
Viva Majorca (12/1) moves up in the switch from a sprint to route. Remember, his sire Tiago was a multiple graded stakes winner at route distances.
Race 10 -
Forensic (3/1), daughter of Criminologist, gets to break her maiden here.
Fresh Feline (12/1) will improve a lot switching to a route.
Upstaged (8/1) has McLaughlin as her trainer and gets Jose Lezcano to ride for this turf race.
