I will be on the road and have done these picks prior to scratch (ie:driver choice) time. Hopefully that won't affect things too much, but...
I return some time Thursday and hopeto get you Friday picks, but if not, we will definitely have Saturday posted either late Thursday or early Friday. Good luck.
Race 1: 6 Miss Tilly- Should easily through against a soft group tonight; 8 Andrea Pauline- Needs to overcome the snowman, not sure she can; 1 Silhouettes K- Risky, but may contend from rail.
Race 2: 1 Cat’s Run- Has been racing better with Tyler driving; 3 Redzilla- A winning qualifier makes him a contender against this group; 9 Ivor Hanover- Needed the local start and should improve.
Race 3: 3 Pacificam- Should be good from here, another Tyler/Bartlett combo; 1 Houdini Sahbra- Major contender but cannot put him on top; 9 Cruisin The Waves- Should get a pretty decent trip.
Race 4: 1 No Escape N- Lukewarm call in a well-balanced group thanks to the rail; 9 Macjurcoharry- Fresh and a decent qualifier; 3 Goin Home Ray- Always hangs around, consider; 8 The Libberteriann- If he overcomes the snowman.
Race 5: 1 Money Man K- Strap him back up and put him in the winners circle; 5 One Tough Night- Has raced well with Tyler; 4 Willard Jr- Hard to ignore the Feb 15 line, regardless of current form.
Race 6: 6 Diehl’s Deal- Slight call in a very competitive group; 2 Rose Run Freddie- Is he back? Perhaps; 8 5 Filou Dream- Not sure what kind of trip this one is dreaming of.
Race 7: 2 Depravedhedonist- In as soft as I can remember and may be a value; 6 Nascart- Starting to put things together and could surprise; 9 S F Stampede- Not sure how he will respond to the 2nd tier, draw gate move? 1 Tieler Bea Hotspur- Must consider this one from the rail.
Race 8: 5 Bigwig- Still green, but rapidly improving, a chance here; 3 The Count- Gets a good draw and must be considered; 9 Pray To Me- May get a very good trip in the cover flow.
Race 9: 2 Real Sexy- Has been knocking at the door, breaks through here; 6 Triggerhappyfellow- seems to fit well with these; 5 Toronado Mindale- Due for a big mile?
Race 10: 9 Dalcroft Big Guy- Look for him to make it three in a row despite the second tier; 6 Slick Sport- Comes off a win, but moves up to face better; 1 Robin Dontget- Not a big fan, but must factor in from the rail; 8 Redication- Can clearly contend at this level, not sure he can contend with this draw.
Race 11: 4 Lucca’s Revenge- Gets the call based on previous class; 3 Legacy Chip- Let’s cash that $5.60 exacta, boys and girls; 1 Jiggy Jack- Needs a smart drive from Kenny.
Race 12: 1 Museum Piece- Rail is a huge advantage for this NW1L8; 3 Mr Ahhh- I’ve just always liked him but recent form is iffy; 5 Coin Of The Realm- Had issues throughout last time, Another chance.
Race 13: 1 Go Landon Go- How can I not pick a horse named for the country’s best soccer player? 2 Gyraider- Fastest winner this year draws well; 9 Powerful Cam- Veteran can contend with these; 4 Western Eddie- Having him on my ticket has almost become a running joke.
