Tuesday picks

A lot of barn changers, a lot of first time drivers. There is som evalue IF we can find the right angles. Here are the picks--good luck!

Race 1: 1 Absolutely Andrea- With an effort like her debut for these connections, absolutely a winner; 3 Sh Sam- Very solid freshman campaign, but a month off; 4 Burning Sensation- 3rd back and a post for all you Belly of the Whale fans.

Race 2: 4 Mystical Ways- Gets class drop & did work in 5 of last 6, must sustain it; 6 Rose Run Freddie- Another dropper, and a 3rd back angle; 2 Striking Karat- Good post, but inconsistent.

Race 3: 6 Rapid Pursuit- Second career start, the 1st was pretty good; 5 Rounding Third- 3rd career start, the 2nd was pretty good; 2 Upon Appeal- Best of the rest.

Race 4: 4 Fire Me- Drops to the level of his last win and should be solid; 2 Princessoftheball- In very good form right now; 8 Ok Spice N- Gets the snowman, but also a trainer/driver change.

Race 5: 9 Ms P M- Decent Q, first time with hopples; 1 Tale Em Cash- Barn changer had to work hard early and faded in last; 6 Wishiwasarichgirl- If you put her on top and win, you will be.

Race 6: 2 My Mystique- Big improvement last time with the class drop; 9 Peggy Spur- Drops after several good efforts against the $4s; 4 Bette Lavec- I say Bet-tee, you say Bet, but we all say on the ticket against this group.

Race 7: 1 Warrior Lee- 2 good recent efforts were at this level; 2 Keuken- Better when drawing inside; 9 Green Acre Pill- Wildly inconsistent, but fits with his best; 5 Jd’s Houdini- 3rd back.

Race 8: 7 Candy Apple Miss- Has really come around for Team Mapes, will be flying late; 2 Matt-scoot-n-bunny- Ultra consistent and gets a fresh set of hands; 3 In Two Win- Fits well with these although it seems odd to see Myrick with a pacer.

Race 9: 1 Lotsa Help- Ten-year-old is improving and gets the rail; 5 Jw Singletree- Moves up after a blowout win; 2 Dees Bomber- Kennedy ‘ken’ stalk these and get a piece of it.

Race 10: 5 Class Worker- Has had success with Aaron in the past; 2 Beach Boy Blues- Always right there, needs to finish a bit stronger; 1 Provara’s Best- Best post in ages and an aggressive trip is needed; 9 Fancy Schmansy- Has some back class, but in last two years has shown little.

Race 11: 6 Moreland Flash-:53 pacer faces softer but is the month off a problem or a freshening? 3 Pure Fantasy- Very sharp right now and should cut it; 5 Goin Home Ray- Steps up but seems to be going forward for the Swartz.

Race 12: 9 Janica- Fresh horse angle at the bottom worth considering; 3 Desert Bunny- Questionable trip last time, should be better; 2 Village Corky- Hangs around with a good draw.

Race 13: 1 Shady Sequel- Regally-bred underachiever gets a fresh set of hands and the rail; 4 Color Me Black- Uncharacteristic break in last, another chance; 3 M G Éclair- Best post since arriving here; 6 Tough Bow Min- Improved with barn change and now gets a catch driver.
