Eight races and an early start this week on this Wednesday at the Big A. I will be condensing my plays down to just the numbers and attacking the early double starting in R2 (Races 1 & 2) and a spot pick 3 (Races 3-5). Big Pete will attack his "Play of the Day" and the late pick 3 (Races 6-8). We appreciate you taking a look at this write-up and GOOD LUCK.

R1: 4

R2: 3, 5 Cost: $ 20.00


Little Pete's $ 1.00 Spot Pick 3:


R3: 2, 3, 4

R4: 6, 7

R5: 1, 3, 4, 6 Cost: $ 24.00



Big Pete's $ 1.00 Late Pick 3:


R6: 3, 4

R7: 4, 5, 7

R8: 1, 2, 5, 7 Cost: $ 24.00


Big Pete's "Play of the Day":


Race 3:


(3) CASILDA has some speed to pressure the front runners and with the class drop, can handle the cheap speed and pull away late. Dutrow ships her in for the higher purse and they shorten up to 6F.



I’ll use (2) Timia and (4) Auroralinna underneath for the exacta.


$ 7.00 WPS 3 Cost $ 21.00

$ 7.00 Ex 3 w/ 2, 4 Cost $ 14.00


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


(6) Golden Symphony and (7) Celestial in the 4th.


$ 7.00 Daily Double 3 w/ 6, 7 Cost $ 14.00



Big Pete's Late Pick 3:



Race 6:


(4) BOLD VICTORY will be tough in her if we have a fair track. He comes from well out of it and needs the speeds to back. Some days the track favors the front so we'll include another. That is (3) SIX KINGS. He will stalk and wait for his new rider to give him his que. The one turn seems to work in his favor vs two turns.


$ 7.00 WPS 3 Cost $ 21.00

$ 3.00 Ex 3, 4 w/ 3, 4, 7 Cost $ 12.00


 

Race 7:


(7) TALL PAUL and (4) WHAT'S UP BRO have speed. If one can shake loose from the other, they can control. I'm playing that they both go at it and help (5) BRACIOLE pull off the upset. He collects checks more than half the time in his starts and comes running late. With the early speed signed on, his late kick becomes faster through the lane.


$ 7.00 WPS 5 Cost $ 21.00

$ 3.00 Ex Box 4, 5, 7 Cost $ 18.00



Race 8:


(2) LEADING ROLE and (5) SHOOT THE NICKEL will sit just off the pace and try to win it by getting the first jump on the closers. I prefer Leading Role with Carmouche getting a 2nd chance up after an ok 3rd last time. Both (1) SNOR PICKLES and (7) WAJDA have the speed so either one can take control early and play catch me if you can.


$ 7.00 WPS 2 Cost $ 21.00

$ 3.00 Ex 2, 7 w/ 1, 2, 5, 7 Cost $ 18.00
