GULFSTREAM PARK
POST-SCRATCHES 2nd: MSW, 3yo, 7f (P4, P3, DD, Super) Most Likely: #2 Desert Storm 3-1: Mott-WinStar Tiznow ran off wk ago.. 3rd Best Value: #6 Good Morning Diva 5-1: Wide 3rd in Gentleman's Bet romp.. WON ($12.80) Next Best: #5 Z Vilna 5-2: First shot for Pletcher to reach win #3k.. 4th Exotics Use: #1 Morgan's Guerilla 6-1: Maker 5/2-2-1 with winter MSW firsters.. 2nd 3rd: OC/N1X, 3yo, 1m (P3, DD, Super) Solid group of sophs that are currently a cut below the stakes level. Eyes will be on Pletcher pair including Hopeful show runner Big Blue Nation and visually impressive maiden-breaker Spring Hill Farm.. Most Likely: #4 Spring Hill Farm 5-2: Modest Evans dispersal buy may be lone speed.. WON ($3.60) Best Value: #7 Two is Too Many 8-1: Faced Discreet Dancer, Algorithms, Reveron.. 5th Next Best: #3 Unbridled Minister 3-1: McPeek debut winner in front of Teeth of the Dog.. 2nd Exotics Use: #2 Big Blue Nation 5-1: Needed time after both starts; Likely ready fresh.. 4th 4th: MSW, 3yo, 7f (P3, DD, Super) [i]Should Pletcher be shut out to this point, he will have opportunity for 3,000th win with Majestic Number, a horse that was named after the first winner of his career, a MD-bred by Polish Numbers that bested $80k MDN CLMers at Gulfstream 1/26/96 under Jerry Bailey..I] Most Likely: #5 Excess Liquidity 6-1: Malibu Moon from C. Brown should be sharper 2nd out.. 7th Next Best: #2 Rise Against 5-2: Discreet Cat from R. Dutrow not flattered by Eckabroni.. 3rd Best Value: #9 Majestic Number 6-1: See above; You can't make this stuff up.. WON ($7.40) Exotics Use: #6 Fort Boonesborough 10-1: Fawkes 1ster half to MGSW Twilight Road.. 2nd 5th: MSW, 3yo, 8.5f-OFF THE TURF (P3, DD, Super) First turf event of day after week of rain. Possible that everything but G1 GP Turf H. comes off lawn.. Most Likely: #8 Golden Ticket 5-2 WON ($6.20) Next Best: #1 Bridge Loan 3-1 3rd Best Value: #3 Ragazzi 12-1 6th Exotics Use: #11 Common Bond 8-1 7th <$75 P4 Play: 2: 2-5-6 3: 2-3-4-7 4: 2-5-9 5: 1-3-8-11 3x4x3x4 = 144 x .50 = $72 $0.50 P4 (6-4-9-8) $152.60 6th: MSW, 3yo-F, 7f (P3, DD, Super) Glad this isn't in the P5 or a P4 sequence. This race has a chaos feel too it despite presence of top connections/pedigrees.. Most Likely: #8 Sanadaat 5-1 5th Best Value: #1 Paradol 8-1 6th Next Best: #2 Silent Fright 3-1 WON ($9.20) Exotics Use: #6 Claire's Song 4-1 2nd 7th: OC/N3X, 4+, 8.5f-T/12' (P6, P3, DD, Super) If this stays on turf, 12-1 Final Count appeals getting Solis, enjoying cozy draw and displaying a predilection for off going.. Best Value: #2 FINAL COUNT 12-1 7th Next Best: #1 Fastest Magician 6-1 6th Exotics Use: #6 Mobilizer 4-1 3rd Super Add: #10 Bergerac 5-1 2nd OFF THE TURF: 11-12-4 8th: 61st Hutcheson (G2), 3yo, 7f (P5, P3, DD, Super) Il Villano has become a mojo horse with those looking to be against Thunder Moccasin and Ever So Lucky. Sheppard was not exactly decisive about Ever So Lucky for this, a sign that can point to iffy performances. Can't find reason to be all that eager to go against Thunder Moccasin who has had 7 weeks into this after smashing debut which went flattered by Ender Knieval, Panthro and Stealcase. And you may have noticed that Pletcher has been doing OK at Gulfstream this winter.. Ever So Lucky a SCR.. Most Likely: #3 Thunder Moccasin 7-5 WON ($2.40) Next Best: #5 Il Villano 5-1 2nd Exotics Use: #4 Quick Wit 6-1 3rd 9th: 67th Suwannee River (G3), F&M-4+, 9f-T/72' (P4, P3, DD, Super) Most Likely: #2 Denomination 3-1 5th Best Value: #6 Hit It Rich 8-1 2nd Next Best: #8 Snow Top Mountain 5-1 WON ($11.00) Exotics Use: #4 Heavenly Landing 4-1 6th OFF THE TURF: 10-11-12 10th: 56th Donn H. (G1), 4+, 9f (P3, DD, Super) Nice assembly of talent for GP's premier handicap event highlighted by Preakness and Belmont winners making their 4yo debuts. Feels like an honest enough pace is assured with presence of Trickmeister and free running pursuers in Shackleford and Redeemed, but this racetrack is not too kind on those trying to close. Believe you want those that will be close up or stalking near and both Hymm Book and Where's Sterling should have ideal positions/trips at square prices.. Best Value: #10 Hymm Book 8-1 WON ($15.00) Next Best: #9 Shackleford 7-2 7th Exotics Use: #1 Where's Sterling 12-1 4th Super Add: #4 Redeemed 12-1 3rd 11th: 29th Gulfstream Park Turf H. (G1), 4+, 9f-T/72' (DD, Super) Tough group to decipher with course condition a question mark at this hour. Pacesetters on off going can be impossible to reel in, so Get Stormy has to move up on radar screens if you thought he had possibilities going in.. SCR Boisterous & Smart Bid.. Most Likely: #7 Get Stormy 4-1 WON ($7.20) Best Value: #8 Kindergarten Kid 15-1 5th Next Best: #2 Hollinger 12-1 2nd Exotics Use: #1 Silver Medallion 5-1 6th 12th: MDN CLM, 3yo-F, 6f (Super, Super Hi-5) Impossible group to figure out.. Most Likely: #2 Sheerflakesofgold 7-2 4th Next Best: #11 Cash Belongings 6-1 2nd Best Value: #12 My Schatzi 12-1 WON ($19.80) Exotics Use: #5 Where is Wilder 10-1 3rd <$100 P5 Play: 8: 3-5 9: 2 10: 1-4-9-10 11: 1-2-7-8-9 12: 2-5-9-11-12 2x1x4x5x5 = 200 x .50 = $100 $0.50 P5 (3,6/8/10/7/12) Paid $19.85 <$75 P4 Play: 9: 2 10: 1-4-6-9-10 11: 1-2-7-8-9 12: 2-5-6-9-11-12 1x5x5x6 = 150 x .50 = $75 Good luck! Steve

Track status: Stakes are on turf. Decision pending on 2 MSW's. Main track sealed and sloppy as of now. Early a.m. thunderstorms hit Hallandale around 3a.

What a mess... Was trying enough to cap for a dry track, let alone this yucky stuff.
Might as well throw darts today and hope for the best. |
