[b]Race One[/b]
2-Honored Gold: Exploded to win strongly in last, must use Mitchell runner here.
3-Silky Smooth: Faced MUCH better foes, Mullins has had her a few weeks, "juicy" proposition now.
Others seem of little consequence.
[b]Race Two[/b]
11-Grace Anatomy: Might get good closing trip with tons of speed signed on here.
4-Miss Fremont: Mandella firster might be live, though bred for longer & grassier events, I'm no huge fan of Mandella first timers anyway.
Many other Questions here.
[b]Race Three[/b]
6-Surf Cat: Ran against a huge speed bias in last, tremendous horse, hopefully Solis won't be too far back!
5-Greg's Gold: had him last time and lost a heart breaker, pretty hard to fault in any way.
Bordornaro looks spent to me; Publication is a monster late, but tougher foes and seven furlongs may dull his usual late charge.
[b]Race Four[/b]
3-Model: Would appear to have MUCH upside against this very modest crew.
4-South African Baby: Classy sort got [b]Horrible[/b] rides in last two by Espinoza. What if. . .he didn't strangle her, but sent her??? What if he took her outside instead of pinning her against the fence. . .what if. . ?
7-Mezuzah: Really regressed in return, maybe Garrett the great will wake her up now though I'm not convinced here -- don't let the trouble line fool you, she was just plain bad.
Uzeme: Is a monster filly, as big as a villain in a Japanese horror film , just no turn of foot here. Island Hop runs very late, Endura is a nice sort who needs claimers I think.
[b]Race Five[/b]
2-Sure Speed: Snappy win, can stalk. A whole lot to like here! (Best Bet of the Day)
D Pirates Marker didn't seem to care for the Polytrack in last, spun wheels wide. Trick a Cat is a quality sort who will put in a late run. R Vicarious Girl's effort is not a sgood as it looks on paper.
[b]Race Six[/b]
Seems wide open to me??? Clockers liked 12-Colonel John's works.
9-EZ Gentlemen: looks like a nice one who is being raced into shape.
1-Overextended: Looks like a grass type to me, speedy, though I don't like the rail for this one. He's run well though he's no sprinter in my humble opinion.
[b]Race Seven[/b]
1-Captain Kurt is a legit Breeder's Cup type who has much upside here; I expect him to run very well here and a win wouldn't surprise me at all.
6-Crossing the Line: May well be the most impressive runner I've ever seen in 35 years of gambling; this one is a complete freak, something out of this world. I can't wait to see what he does against top competition today.
3-Out of Control: Lost to a superstar, but he may be over the top now??? Frankel's runners don't improve after 3 starts in a row, that's for sure.
The others are just average types to me.
[b]Race Eight[/b]
The big Ka-Hoona!
Pacific PolyTrack Classic.
1-Lava Man: I love the old guy, but he's seen better days. A bet against for me now. I hate the rail, too.
2-Albertus Maximus: In deep here. Pass.
3-Sun Boat: Has Mitchell's magic pixie dust, race over the track can't hurt either. Can't fault you if you fancy him, I'll use in some exotics.
4-Awesome Gem: Not going any faster now, may get a share, barn is red hot too, but I'm not sold on his chances here though. Pass.
5-Student Council: Wild card here, a legit runner I think. Wouldn't be a huge surprise for me.
6-Porfido: Works brilliantly, runs so so. I guess I'll finally jump off him here after playing him at big odds based on my clocker's tips.
7-Salty Humor: In too deep here.
8-Arson Squad: Don't know what to make of his return. Must prove it to me now.
9-Tiago: Loves polytrack, very legit chance here -- Smith loves polytrack as well, Very live runner.
10-Big Booster: Tremendous run against the bias in last. I'd love him if not for the layoff --how do you train up to a mile and a quarter race? Will need extra serving of pixie dust.I still like him a lot -- monster in the lane when the others are panting.
11-AP Excellent: No shot here, not classy enough, A rabbit for Tiago.
12-Time Sq. Fits in some context but I wonder if he'll lose punch with a wide trip. can't totally toss though.
13-Hello Sunday: Monster in every way. Look out for the Frankel express train! Don't say I didn't warn you!
Race Nine No comments. I'm tired of typing.
