Big Pete's "Play of the Day":

Race 3:

(3) FRIZZANTE has been switch barns as of late. He was consistent every time out. He may have tailed off the end of last year but looks primed to get it going again. Jamie got a test drive last time and he returns again today. Commuted and Cicciobello may go at it so this bodes well for Frizzante to come and get them both

I’ll use (1) Cicciobello and (4) Commuted underneath for the exacta.

$ 7.00 WPS 3 Cost $ 21.00

$ 7.00 Ex 3 w/ 1, 4 Cost $ 14.00

We’ll also use (3) FRIZZANTE in R3 and try to cash in on a Daily Double.

(4) Moment's Notice in the 4th.

$ 10.00 Daily Double 3 w/ 4 Cost $ 10.00

Big Pete's Late Pick 3:

Race 6:

(2) TAKE ME TO LONDYN looms large. Cox and Jamie team up here as they continue to win races. I like the cut back to 6F today. (6) ELENI has a little excuse for last time drops again. Santana tries this one one. The sleeper is (7) SYL'S PLEASURE. has faced better before and gets a jockey switch for today.

$ 7.00 WPS 2 Cost $ 21.00

$ 3.00 Ex Box 2, 6, 7 Cost $ 18.00

Race 7:

(4) CADDIEMASTER drops slightly and Rice has had a little more time with him. They cut him back and give Manny the keys for this. A possible single but I'll include one more for safe keeping. (5) SOLO DANCING is the one I want. They switch to the hot Santana for this. He can stalk mid pack and come running late for the money.

$ 7.00 WPS 5 Cost $ 21.00

$ 3.00 Ex Box 3, 4, 5 Cost $ 18.00

Race 8:

This one goes through (4) SHELLAC. He drops to the bottom and picks up Prat. He'll take a lot of money and probably wins it, but I'll include two others because he's here for a reason. He's not that good. (2) GREY ACE dropped to this level two back and it paid off. A 2nd and 3rd so far and is the likely winner if the favorite is damaged goods. The sleeper that I'll be routing for is (8) SENOR PONCHO. He too tries bottom claimers for the first time with a couple of decent speed figures. Any one of these can jump up and run a nice race so maybe it's his day today.
