We have ten races on this Chilly Saturday at the Big A. I will be condensing my plays down to just the number and attacking the early double (Races 1 & 2) and a spot pick 3 (Races 5-7). Big Pete will attack his "Play of the Day" and the late pick 3 (Races 8-10). We appreciate you taking a look at this write-up and GOOD LUCK.
Little Pete's $ 5.00 Early Double:
R1: 1, 2
R2: 3, 8 Cost: $ 20.00
Little Pete's $ 1.00 Spot Pick 3:
R5: 4, 8, 10
R6: 1, 8
R7: 3, 6, 8 Cost: $ 24.00
Big Pete's $ 1.00 Late Pick 3:
R8: 4, 7, 8, 10, 13
R9: 1, 4, 7
R10: 2, 8, 10 Cost: $ 45.00
Big Pete's "Play of the Day":
Race 3:
(1) TIP TOP THOMAS might have to rate today as there is speed signed on and the rail may shuffle him from the chute. We'll let Johnny V handle all that. Both are in form right now and the 1M fits to a T. His stablemate will soften up Disco and set up for a stalker to come and get it.
I’ll use (4) Stars And Stripes and (6) Crudo to work out the exacta.
$ 7.00 WPS 1 Cost $ 21.00
$ 3.00 Ex Box 1, 4, 6 Cost $ 18.00
We’ll also use (1) Tip Top Thomas in R3 and try to cash in on a Daily Double.
(3) Taliesin or (8) Weigh The Risks in the 4th.
$ 7.00 Daily Double 1 w/ 3, 8 Cost $ 14.00
Big Pete's "Play of the Day":
Race 5:
(4) THREE SIXTY was making up ground in her debut on the muddy. She's meant for the turf and she gets her chance on that surface today. Dutrow sticks with Luzzi to see it through. Big bullet for this.
I’ll use (8) Belarosa and (10) Sweet Rhythm to close out the exacta.
$ 7.00 WPS 4 Cost $ 21.00
$ 3.00 Ex Box 4, 8, 10 Cost $ 18.00
We’ll also use (4) Three Sixty in R5 and try to cash in on a Daily Double.
(1) Dreamlike or (8) Tracking Error in the 6th.
$ 7.00 Daily Double 4 w/ 1, 8 Cost $ 14.00
Big Pete's Late Pick 3:
Race 8:
(4) SNICKERY has some early speed and is bred to go longer. Casse switches to Javier to keep this gelding motoring along up top. (7) HELLZ KITCHEN moves back to the turf and is bred to go all day. (10) MAKE A PREDICTION keeps improving and has the highest speed figure of this group. Jose gives him a second try, so will I. I'll lean a little more on the Weaver colt, (8) NEWLYN. He was recently first of 219 with a flat 48 bullet and figures to improve with racing. It's graduation day for this guy.
$ 7.00 WPS 8 Cost $ 21.00
$ 3.00 Ex 4, 8 w/ 4, 7, 8, 10 Cost $ 18.00
Race 9:
(4) OURDAYDREAMINGGIRL has a 3rd place finish in a G1. That is saying a lot. If she comes right back with that effort, she will be a handful in here. (7) CUE THE DUCKBOATS has been consistent for Mott and should appreciate the 9F today. Moves back to the real dirt and should be tough today. (1) BEING MYSELF keeps getting better every time out. Johnny V comes in for the ride and they draw nicely in this two turn event. The farther the better for this Curlin filly.
$ 7.00 WPS 1 Cost $ 21.00
$ 3.00 Ex 1, 7 w/ 1, 4, 7, 9 Cost $ 18.00
Race 10:
(8) AMBER CASCADE has 3 straight triple speed figures and ships in with some confidence. Maker brings in her regular jockey too. (10) FUN WITH FLAGS may be in here to provide pace for her stablemate (2) GRAYOSH. She has a race or two that give her a shot, and the extra distance will only help. It also helps Grayosh, and with Prat choosing this one, she looks more attractive. (3) BEACH BOMB just missed in the Waya and looms large here as well. She comes fast late.
