We have an excellent card tomorrow starting with a 11:20 AM EST post.
It's a day to pace ourselves. The closer we get to the Travers get ready for extended period of time between races. It's annoying as hell but it's all about the moolah.
I've only capped half of the races, so I'll be up early tomorrow finishing my homework.
C ya tomorrow.
No major scratches so far.
Race 1 we have a huge jock change on #1 to Irad even though the filly has been on the bench for 4 months. This girl has ben knocking on the door & Irad may make the difference. #2 is a first timer; #3 lost by 37 lengths in her only try; #4 is another 1st timer who has been working out at the SPA since May but doesn't show much; #5 ran a decent 3rd in her only try 2 months ago; #6 ran 2nd as the chalk in her last & Saez gets up for Franco. #7 SCRATCHED. #8 will be the heavy chalk but has been the bridesmaid having run 2nd in all 5 of her race for Rosario/Mott.
I expect Saez to battle for the lead on #6 with Rosario on #8 & Irad closing on #1 to get the cash.
Race 2 #2 & 6 are SCRATCHED. #1 ran 5th with Javier in his last but drops in class & picks up Dettori. He's dangerous here, #3 has been well bet in all 3 tries for the Klaravich Stables/Brown/Prat combo. #4 is 7 for 7 ITM with a 7-1-3-3 record. The big roan tired in is last but goes shorter today & has banked 191k. #5 lost his last 2 as the favorite & drops in class here. #7 closed well to just miss in his last @ 11-1 with Tyler/Walsh but has won only 1 of 8 tries. #8 has been well bet in all 4 tries & is dangerous coming off the pace. #9 tries the grass for the 1st time with Javier.
DD play 168 with 534
I know everyone talks about Prat being the best rider but I'll take Javier. He won this one in a head bob.
Race 3 #1 is 1 for 24 lifetime. #2 was pulled up in his last while being claimed by Norm Casse who drops him here. #3 may like the longer distance for a red hot Mike Maker. #4 should be closing #5 has won 4 of 30 races; #6 broke his maiden after 14 times @ Monmouth in his last; #7 is 1 for 15 for a trainer looking for his 1st win at the meet. #8 will be his 2nd race off the claim & tries grass for the 1st time. What does the new trainer see here? #9 Irad is winning @ 21% & this is a closer going longer today. #10 doesn't really belong in this race IMO.
WPS #8
Ex wheel 9 with all.
DD 9 with 356
Sometimes ya gotta take a step back & I'm doing it here,
This is a MSW for 100k & there are a bunch of 1st time starters. One of these trainers is sitting on a good one but I don't know which one. Bown & Weaver have 2 each in this race.
Maybe #8 Thunder Roll didn't like the dirt in his only try & Billy Mott tries him here on the grass. Is he the one? I don't know. He's got a couple of bullet workouts.
Add Pletcher to the mix with a firster in #7 Chanticleer.
Ex wheel 7 with all
Who knows???
