An utter scramble. Don't settle for short numbers exclusively. Mike Welsch said Sunday on 'Loose on the Lead' that I O Ireland, who beat G1 Starlet winner Pure Fun at KEE, has worked sharp leading up to this spot. Feels like 12 of the 14 can win.. Best Value: #7 I O Ireland 15-1 10th Next Best: #3 Corporate Culture 10-1 9th Exotics Use: #6 Tuttipaesi 12-1 WON ($18.00) Super Add: #12 I'm Already Sexy 10-1 6th 9th: Gulfstream Park Derby, 3yo, 1m (DD) Purple Egg SCRATCHED will need to stretch out an additional quarter mile, but only looked to be really running in last 16th of TAM stake score. Wondered about main track viability of ONT-bred Star Contender (Oxley/Casse) and wasn't particularly encouraged noting that second dam Hangin On a Star produced turf stakes types including Comet Shine (Broodmare sire of Dee Tee's Ausable Chasm).. Most Likely: #5 Itsmyluckyday 4-1 WON ($8.20) Next Best: #1 Undrafted 6-1 3rd Exotics Use: #7 Star Contender 3-1 6th Super Add: #4 Sr. Quisqueyano 5-2 2nd 10th: MSW, 3yo-F, 1m-T/24' (Super Hi-5) Most Likely: #7 Atlantic Dream 7-2 2nd Best Value: #3 Wine Burglar 10-1 6th Next Best: #8 E B Ryder 6-1 5th Exotics Use: #4 Manuka Honey 4-1 4th Super/Hi-5: #1 Lemonsrgoodongrass 12-1 3rd <$50 P5 Play: 6: 1-7-12 7: 3-4 8: 1-3-6-7-12-14 9: 1-4-5-7 10: 7 3x2x6x4x1 = 144 x .50 = $72 <$75 P4 Play: 7: 3-4 8: 1-3-6-7-12-14 9: 1-4-5-7 10: 3-7-8 2x6x4x3 = 144 x .50 = $72 SANTA ANITA PARK POST-SCRATCHES 4th: CLM, F&M-4+, 1m-T (P6, P3, DD) Most Likely: #9 Van Brit 9-5 (A) 3rd Next Best: #4 Elegant 3-1 (A) 6th Best Value: #3 Bonita Star 9-2 (C) 7th Exotics Use: #5 Cosset 5-1 (C) WON ($18.80) 5th: CLM, F&M-4+, 6.5f (P3, DD) Most Likely: #10 Lit de Bet 9-2 (A) 5th Best Value: #6 Here Comes Bonnie 5-1 (B) 10th Next Best: #9 Rossi Reserve 2-1 (B) WON ($6.00) Exotics Use: #2 Memo to Kathy 8-1 (C) 2nd 6th: CLM/N2L, 4+, 1m-T (P4, P3, DD) Very tough N2L set with too many similar non-descript types to suit my taste. Have not a single clever idea to offer.. Most Likely: #1 Lite That Baby Up 4-1 (A) 5th Next Best: #6 Winds of Dubai 3-1 (A) 6th Exotics Use: #11 Pride of Silver 7-2 (B) 3rd Super Add: #5 Ride Along 4-1 (B) WON ($14.20) 7th: Cal-MSW, 3yo-F, 6.5f (P3, DD) Dangerous Cal-bred MDN race with FTS runners from big barns appearing just so-so in morning evaluations. Siding mostly with those that have been out already.. #13 (AE) Cayton 6-1 does not get in making this a bit of a quagmire.. Best Value: #9 Rockin Cowgirl 8-1 (A) 6th Next Best: #2 Sophie's Secret 3-1 (B) 9th Exotics Use: #3 Mark of a Gem 5-1 (B) 4th Super Add: #10 Good Party 4-1 (C) WON ($18.20) 8th: Blue Norther, 3yo-F, 1m-T (DD) Like the Ginger Brew above, a good group of missies. Sharp line by Jon White as top 4 ML choices are the standouts. Somethingabout her and Escape Act seem like the two other players at square prices. Escape Act (Papa Clem half sis) better be challenged by the half mile pole or she may very well be gone. Scarlet Strike, a half top Visionaire, adds blinks and might be the one to reach the pacesetter first.. Most Likely: #2 Scarlet Strike 3-1 (A) 2nd Best Value: #11 Travesura 9-2 (B) 7th Next Best: #10 Sky High Gal 7-2 (B) WON ($7.20) Exotics Use: #1 Heir Kitty 7-2 (B) 5th "C's": #7 Escape Act 8-1; #8 Somethingabouther 15-1 (C) 9th: MDN CLM, F&M-4+, 6f (Super Hi-5) Most Likely: #12 Holiday Rose 6-1 (A) 6th Next Best: #6 Late SCR Exotics Use: #13 Sugar Spice 4-1 (B) WON ($6.00) Super Add: #4 She's Actceptional 5-1 (B) 4th <$150 P6 Play: 4: 4-9 5: 6-9-10 6: 1-6 7: 2-3-9 8: 2 9: 6/SCR-12 2x3x2x3x1x2 = 72 x $2 = $144 <$75 P4 Play: 6: 1-6 7: 2-3-9 8: 1-2-7-8-10-11 9: 4-6/SCR-12-13 2x3x6x4 = 144 x .50 = $72 Good luck! Steve

Verrazano romps... "What a surprise".
Is it just me or is it amazing when it comes to these Pletcher GP wunderkinds... If you single them, they flop and if you bother to use a couple others with them, they air.

You are not wrong. Thought Acclaim was a huge overlay at 6-1. But, they knew.

Nice job by Joel Rosario holding Merit Man together to win the Spectacular Bid. Grabbed lead and ran every step. That's the ride PVal needed to employ in BC Juvy Sprint.

Bradester horse to beat, no doubt, but get 30-1 Wild Billum and 26-1 Third Choice involved somehow...
