Big Pete's "Play of the Day":

Race 3:

(6) PINKY BRIER ha drawn outside a lot of speed. Galinda will have company today and Pinky has learned to settle in stride and rate. She's two for two with L1 medication added and this Mckinzie will have no trouble with 7F.

I’ll use (1) Current Yield and (5) Galinda underneath for the exacta.

$ 7.00 WPS 6 Cost $ 21.00

$ 7.00 Ex 6 w/ 1, 5 Cost $ 14.00

We’ll also use (6) Pinky Brier in R3 and try to cash in on a Daily Double.

(2) Big Dig and (8) Waveless in the 4th.

$ 7.00 Daily Double 6 w/ 2, 8 Cost $ 14.00

Big Pete's Late Pick 3:

Race 6:

(11) BLOWN COVER draws in off the AE's and has stalking speed to come and get them late. Moving back to the turf and sprinting is his thing. (8) BIG Z OG has a similar running style and will follow Blown Cover. They both need the speeds to back up, and that hasn't happened much on the turf in the last few days. (6) LAUNCH CONTROL is the speed, and the course helps this guy out. I'll use but try to beat him with closers. The final closer we'll use is (7) CITY OF OSCARS. He moves back to the grass where he has several good attempts. He may be a little closer than normal and try to win it turning for home.

$ 7.00 WPS 11 Cost $ 21.00

$ 3.00 Ex 7, 11 w/ 6, 7, 8, 11 Cost $ 18.00

Race 7:

(5) BAM'S BLISS KISS and (7) COLLECT THE DATA look sharp as both will take some money here. They both have speed and want the lead, so things could get heated up front. If so, I like (2) SWEET BROWN SUGAR to make an appearance late in the game.

$ 7.00 WPS 2 Cost $ 21.00

$ 3.00 Ex Box 2, 5, 7 Cost $ 18.00

Race 8:

We'll spread out in this finale as several look to have a shot. (6) EL PACO headed north last time to face NY breds and almost pulled it off. With a bullet in the AM on the 4th, he looks to do it again on the front end. (9) CENTRAL SPIRIT wants it to start raining soon to better his chances. The drop will also help his chances too. I'll try to beat both of them with either (2) VITALIZE or (7) INONIT. Both like to stalk and come running late.
