Special card-- remember we race Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday this coming week. $29.99 Buffet in Lady Luck's. Announcer Ratliff has the on-air duties as I spend some time with the family.
FYI- Picks take a hiatus from Tuesday 12/29 until Wednesday 1/6 as I am taking some time off. I will try to post some highlights if I can.
Race 1: 1 Canaco Rambo- Gets Lasix (and the rail) which could be key based on his last start; 9 Queens Scooter- Totally missed gate in last; 5 Lima Ritch- Van Rhoden easily best UDRS here.
Race 2: 1 Golden Slippers- Has done good work but has been unlucky, down the road here; 5 Lucky For Us- Doesn’t always fire, but fits with best; 3 Abc Flower- In solid form, but Robin chose off. Loyalty or something else?
Race 3: 1 Stand N Shout- Two improved efforts with Crist driving; 6 Johhnyisajohnny- Gets Stahl after two straight snowmen; 4 Roaring River- Gets some class relief, a hunch.
Race 4: 1 See Buns- Best post draw since moving to Mapes’ barn; 4 Canaco Kubota- Can contend at this class with a good draw; 6 Tj’s Red Devil- Has improved since going to Epler’s barn; 5 D T Butter- Moves up off two heartening efforts.
Race 5: 1 Goatcoat George Tm- Gets class and post relief, but hasn’t shown much locally; 6 Zipsnapdrop- May be a little too far out to get the best result; 4 Slide Lock- Beat these last time.
Race 6: 9 J And S Hoover- Moves up in superb form & has upside; 1 Over Spurred- Consistent closer is solid if fave can’t handle 2nd tier; 7 Diehl’s Deal- Still eligible for the tag, mmm, why not?
Race 7: 4 King Mouse- Back at level of solid effort two back and gets Stahl; 6 Eagle Tack- Not a huge fan, but woke up a bit in last; 3 Hard Time Gone- Bets post in ages, can fly late; 1 Three Times Silver- An absolute in and outer, which will he be tonight?
Race 8: 3 Fortune Ho- Very competitive for this tag; 9 As If I’m Magic- Tough task from the second tier; 1 Toonami- Time off is a concern with just 11 starts, but has speed and gets the rail.
Race 9: 2 I Da Girl- Grammar not withstanding, she absolutely is; 3 Peggy Spur- Almost always does work, needs to do a bit more; 5 Mystical Ways- Looks for three in a row, but faces better.
Race 10: 7 Exceptional Toy- Always better when he Stahls; 9 Guile’s Boy- No chance in last, another try; 8 Noble Maximus- Post will penalize hi, but E.D. may get him away aggressively; 6 Ge’s Antonio- Will take pressure trying for the top and doesn’t finish strongly.
Race 11: 6 Danny-o- Solid and racing with heart right now; 3 Hawaiian Music Man- Coming back after the layoff with a decent campaign; 9 Lotsa Help- Stalker needs help from 2nd tier.
Race 12: 4 Sold American- I have always liked this horse, he gives you your $2 worth; 1 Rocco’s Revenge- The drop helped, but he should have been better dropping in last; 5 Break The Bank- Break cost him a chance to bank anything last time, contends if flat.
Race 13: 1 Green Acre Pill- Last race was better than the line looks; 5 Engine Hanover- Tends to race pretty well for Aaron; 6 Jakey Boy- Class drop may help in second local effort; 3 Nl Nuclearmedicine- Usually closes a bit and draws better in this one.
