Nine races scheduled at the Big A with the return Cornucopian as the feature. I will be condensing my plays down to just the number and attacking the early double starting in R2 (Races 1 & 2) and a spot pick 3 (Races 4-6). Big Pete will attack his "Play of the Day" and the late pick 3 (Races 7-9). We appreciate you taking a look at this write-up and GOOD LUCK.

Little Pete's $ 5.00 Early Double:

R1: 3, 4

R2: 1, 5 Cost: $ 20.00

Little Pete's $ 1.00 Spot Pick 3:

R4: 3, 5

R5: 2, 6, 15

R6: 3, 4, 6, 8 Cost: $ 24.00

Big Pete's $ 5.00 Late Pick 3:

R7: 7

R8: 2, 6

R9: 7, 9, 10 Cost: $ 30.00

Big Pete's "Play of the Day":

Race 3:

(6) STEWIE couldn’t hold off Amundsen two back and we saw what he did yesterday. He rated a little last time and that should be the plan today. Several speeds signed on and this family guy can come late for the money.

I’ll use (2) Warhol and (3) On The Hillunderneath for the exacta.

$ 7.00 WPS 6. Cost $ 21.00

$ 3.00 Ex Box 2, 3, 6. Cost $ 18.00

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

(3) The Paddock Paster or (5) Smooth Breeze in the 4th.

$ 7.00 Daily Double 6. w/ 3, 5 Cost $ 14.00

Big Pete's Late Pick 3:

Race 7:

(7) CORNUCOPIAN gets a public workout in preparation for Preakness.

Race 8:

(2) LAURELIN has the races to back up her 2:1 status. She looks to be a good one as she races more. I’ll lean a little more on (6) CANDY QUEST as she looks to be improving every time out. Davis takes over for this filly and the 1M seems perfect.

$ 7.00 WPS 6 Cost $ 21.00

$ 5.00 Ex 2, 6 w/ 2, 5, 6. Cost $ 20.00

Race 9:

(9) LEON BLUEhas speed but coming off the pace worked well in his debut. Gets in light and cuts back. (10) STORMY BIRTHDAY has to be on the ticket with this addition ofL1 and the cut back. (7) NO PROBLEM should have no problem coming from Casse getting this sprint distance with Lezcano.
