Breeders Cup Saturday (Pick-6)

Lets start discussing these races...

Congrats GameHunter!!  Awesome $54k hit for 5/6 today

Okay, just briefly gone over Races 4 thru 11

These arent top selections, just what Im looking at...will narrow it down with discussion & input.  Will post each race on their own...

Race 4

9 - Soldat

*Trouble in last on yielding turf, firm turf may be the difference, as his 2-back was very nice.

5 - Master of Hounds

*Like him the best out of the 3 imports, wanted a couple horses who will be mid pack with plenty of speed signed on.

Start of Pick-6

Race 5

Really looking for the closers here with all the speed signed on to the inside.

10 - Riley Tucker

12 - Warriors Reward

9 - Supreme Summit

Race 6

Another race with a TON of speed...

3 - Stradivinsky

*Should be the speed of the speed with all the bullets Dutrow put him leading up to this. Not sure he can hold, but the price may be worth it.

5 - Silver Timber

*Hard knocking 7yr old love to win...should get a nice trip outside of the 3 inside speeds.

1 - Chamberlain Ridge

*Fully expect him to be sitting right with Silver Timber in 2nd flight, but for some reason he never seems to get by.

11 - Grand Adventure

*The wild card...should get first jump on the #1 & #5 with a pressing trip from the outside.

Race 7

This race should have an honest pace to it with a bunch of young studs.

7 - Uncle Mo

*Cant fault the 2-2 in dominating in both, Pletcher did well on Friday.

10 - Jaycito

*This will be the player to run them down if the pace gets too hot.

2 - Boys At Tuscanova

*Experience over CD gives him a shot, and the last 2 were stellar.

6 - Stay Thirsty

*Never out of the Exacta and this horse has a freakish breeding line.  This distance should be right up his alley.

Race 8

This should be the 2nd best race of the day with some monsters drawn in.

9 - Sidneys Candy

*TOP CHOICE, love his last race...dominating performance and bred to be a moster turfer

10 - Goldikova

*No need for an explanation here, best turfer around right now...but wont offer value.

6 - Paco Boy

*If you like Goldikova, you have to like Paco Boy as the 2 duke it out overseas on a regular bases.

3 - Gio Ponti

*Big chance tomorrow on her best surface...she blew that field away last out under wraps. Dominguez asked for something for about 50yds and it was over

Race 9

Speed everywhere depending on which horses run where...if all the speed stays I love a price.

5 - Here Comes Ben

*The best closer in the field, and the last 2 at CD were monsters.

2 - Tizway

*This horse is the most adaptable to stalk and pounce, but if some speedsters decide not to go she can go to the front as well.

6 - Gayego

*Last 2 proves he's in form, Beyers of 99 or better in last 8 and should get a good stalking trip.

Race 10

This may be the obvious chalk of day...

7 - Behkabad

*Tactical speed, with an outside trip...and has put up HUGE numbers in Europe.

6 - Workforce

*We may not even see him run as his connections have been contemplating scratching due to the footing. If he goes, obvious choice.

5 - Al Khali

*If either of the Euro's dont fire, this horse will be flying down the lane at a number.

Race 11

Great race yet again this year, lets hope Quality doesnt act up.

8 - Zenyatta

*Love watching her race, and am a fan of general.  Low odds expected, but she's the best closer in the field and if the speed is as expected she will be mowing horses down in that long stretch.

5 - Blame

*Should be stalking, will get first jump on the Queen...and if Zenyatta doesn't take to the surface this one will be the horse another closer needs to take down.

12 - Lookin At Lucky

*Same type of style as Blame, may take a bit more effort from this far outside post...and it may cost him when the real running gets thrown down.  They both have to fend off the Mighty Z

Nice job Brick....good luck tomorrow.

Removing: Chamberlain Ridge

Adding: Central City

Adding: Banned

 Vet

*Just starting to narrow down some ticket options.  My Dad will be simulcasting at Emerald Downs (Im going 50/50 on a ticket with him) the rest of my wagering will be done at home. With the horses I likem the Pick-4 or rolling Pick-3's wont be bad options as there's a lot of prices I have a fancy for.

Right back at ya buddy!!  The value is there against Goldikova, but the only chance to beat her is if she doesnt fire.  I really think Sidneys Candy is going to be an absolute MONSTER on turf...and we may see it tomorrow.  She's the value play.

The classic should come down to the 2 best closers in the world right now.  Blame or Zenyatta. I'll be 2-deep only in that leg. Nobody is going to talk me into Quality or LAL...both are hindered by the post draws

BC Turf

Workforce officially scratched...if Behkabad doesnt fire...we see a decent price...and bump in the pools.

Pick 6

6) 3-5-11

7) 6-7-10

8) 3-9-10

9) 2-5

10) 2-5

11) 8

Well need to focus and make back my Pick-6 wager, don't think 5 of 6 will pay today with the horses I had...so rolling Pick-3's

7) 1-6-7-10

8) 3-9-10-11

9) 2-5

Damn, what a performance.  Uncle Mo!!

Well, I got thru the 1st leg of my Pick-3 to the damn FAV
