PK4 - 1 3 4 5 7 8 / 1 4 10 / 1 4 / 1 2 3 = $54 for $.50

R6 - OC 75k/N1X - Terrific race that should produce starters in the G1 Florida Derby next month.

#3 Matterhorn (6-1) - Liked everything from his debut and have been looking forward to his return. Stalk an pounce trip.
#8 Tonalist (3-1) - Took care of big field at 9F in maiden local score. Obvious contender. 2ND
#6 Constitution (5-2) - Sharp debut at 7F and looks to have the ability to route. WON $6.60
#10 Mexicoma (5-1) - Will most likely take back and make a big run late. Post and short stretch are against him. 3RD

R7 - OC 62k/N2X (Turf 8.5F)

#5 Calm Pacific (3-1) - Sharp connections have another nice turf horse that is lightly raced. 4TH
#2 Hey Leroy (20-1) - Too consistent right now to ignore at a huge price. 2ND
#4 Favor Factor (15-1) - Has won off a layoff and draws well for his stalking style.
#8 Bi Flash (15-1) - Must be considered to steal this with Paco Lopez

R8 - MSW 47k (Turf 8.5F)

#14 Palace Gate (6-1) - Exits a nice race and despite the parking lot draw, I'm leaning that lawn will be his game. 2ND
#2 Mill Creek (12-1) - I look for Johnny V to take advantage up front of a paceless race.
#7 Dylan Ward (3-1) - Logical player, but might have developed a bit of hang in him.

PK3 - 1 3 6 8 9 10 / 2 5 / 2 14 = $24

Mid PK4 - 1 2 3 8 / 1 3 6 8 9 10 / 5 / 2 14 = $24 for $.50

Press PK3 - 3 8 / 3 / 2 14 = $4

R9 - G2 Davona Dale

#6 Penwith (4-1) - She might be forgotten by the two Pletcher fillies, but she's improving and the barn is lethal when adding lasix. 4TH
#3 Onlyforyou (2-1) - Brings undefeated record and WILL be the one to catch going into the short stretch. WON $4.20
#8 Stopchargingmaria (9-5) - Tricky read on return especially at a low price. Will use cautiously.
#5 House Rules (10-1) - Finally got it together in last and could add value underneath here. 2ND

R10 - G3 Canadian Turf (Turf 8F)

#5 Reload (8-1) - Extremely dangerous right back on the front end. WON $11.60
#2 Unbridled Ocean (10-1) - Made a huge late rally against a salty field earlier in the month. 4TH
#1 Mr. Online (3-1) - Expect him to keep Reload busy on the front as he's going for 4 in row. 2ND
#3 Rydilliuc (6-1) - Nice string of works for return and barn shows confidence.

R11 - G2 Fountain of Youth

#5 General Rod (5-1) - Beat a tough customer in the GP Derby (#4 Wildcat Red) and no reason to think he can't handle two turns from an ideal post position. 2ND
#12 Top Biling (7-2) - Has displayed some serious talent, but has to overcome tough draw. If Rosario is able to save some ground going into the 1st turn, watch out because he's a stone cold runner. 3RD
#1 Commissioner (3-1) - Has been freshened up after running his eyeballs out to hold off Top Biling to start the year. Should only get better with time and longer distances.
#4 Wildcat Red (6-1) - Gutsy performer will give you everything has got. This distance is within his scope. WON $11.00

PK4 - 2 7 14 / 3 6 8 / 1 2 3 5 / 1 5 12 = $54 for $.40

#9 Unitarian (5-1) - Probably best going longer, but must be considered nonetheless.
#5 Gentleman's Kitten (9-2) - Talamo should fit his front running style well. 4TH

R11 - G2 Risen Star

#9 Intense Holiday (8-1) - Battle tested and is ready for a peak performance 2nd off the bench. The long stretch should be to his advantage. Breakout performance possibility. WON $12.00
#6 Gold Hawk (8-1) - Disappointed as the chalk in the G3 Lecomte, but is capable of rebounding in a big way.

Why no love for Rise Up? Did he love Delta Downs, or did he just figure it out? runs well fresh, working great, been pointing to this race for awhile, has the best speed in the field and draws well in the 2 hole, I think he is in front as far as he goes, and I think he wins by a pole...............

[pucknut]

Agreed this horse looks primed

Fatpiano, I wouldn't talk you off him, especially if you think he wins by a pole. IMO, Albano will probably be sent from the inside and Vigorish should also show some speed. I thinks he's overmatched and he's no bargain at anything close to the morning line. Good luck today
