Danette, the is dropping out of 3 graded stakes races, two of them against Take Charge Brandi. The trained by Baffert, ridden by Berajano, is coming off a great 1st race where she missed by a nose. The was 2nd last race, beaten as the even money shot.
These are the three I like with outside consideration to the and for the super. I don't like the other five but a couple of them will get some play. The was beaten even money favorite 1st time out and is trained also by Baffert. The just ran 4th in a stakes race but that was on the turf. The has been bet down both career races which have both been okay but loses Bejarano here.
I may be looking at this race as it is more clear cut than most would. I think the run 1-2 with the third or 4th with the other two being the . Here is a chance for me to start off the new year with a super that could pay at least 300 that could be hit a few times. If anyone handicaps this race let me know if you think Danette and Popover stand out as much to you as they do to me.

I'm not playing this race, but the
,
, and
would be my first three to toss out...I usually agree with Jon White's ML but I think he has it way wrong here...
-ML 6-1....I wouldn't touch this one...outclassed on breeding....I'm guessing over twice the ML
-ML 6-1....could stretch out and be more effective but I would not bet to find out...guessing higher than 6-1 at post time
ML 10-1....no speed and the brisnet LP numbers are terrible as well....he might be 50-1 or higher
ML 3-1....pros-numbers fit, class drop, looks like a weaker field....cons--0 for 7....will be shorter than 3-1
ML 5-2....logical contender for the reasons you stated....shorter than 5-2
ML 12-1....bet heavy in debut and i expect more betting.....less than 12-1 ...thinking 7-2 - 6-1 range
ML12-1.....will be much higher odds post time....this one should like the stretch out but the debut at parx was just god awful
ML 5-1....this ML seems about right....the late threat if there is one
ML 8-1....bread for turf but no luck in some tricky spots....they obviously thought a lot of this one to enter in a stake last time so there could be some talent here in what appears to be a somewhat lackluster field....I would pass but the tote board will tell you if this one is live
ML 20-1...i think the ML price is right for this one....could like the stretch out but i expect an evenly ran race from this one
If anyone other than 4,5,6, or 8 win I would be shocked...the 5 would be my pick
