I'm going to go with an unorthodox pick 4 ticket (for me) as the 7th race beyond difficult and if the favorite fails in the 8th, there are several nice looking firsters.

Race 7

1 - Smart Rose - Her two best races this meet have been at 7f. Stepping up slightly from lifetime conditions.
2 - Shore Breeze Hero - Gatis kept this one rolling, she'll need to go further than ever though.
3 - Gold Jolie - Coming off a big win and gets Centeno.
4 - Close the Deal - Ness seems to have cooled off slightly in the last couple weeks. This one takes a double drop after losing as the chalk last out.
6 - Richie London - Last was impressive. Wright successful with a tiny sample of claims.
7 - Darby Lee - Another Ness, another horse-for-the-course (and distance). Scratched

Race 8

2 - Omega Cat - Works good. Sire good with firsters. RAJr and Proctor.
3 - Whiff - Works good. Sire good with firsters. Dam won MSW at PHA at first asking.
5 - Just Different - Cibelli great with firsters. Cruz riding well of late.
8 - Sky Ride - Works good. Sire good with firsters. Zweisler/Farish.
9 - Premier Roma - Just missed...twice. Bullet.

Race 9

8 - Fast Promises - We'll take the fastest dirt horse in a bad turf race.

Race 10

6 - Mulitcard - Zaidie calls on the bug to replicate the wire to wire maiden victory.
9 - Beautiful Insight - Just missed...twice. Battle of the bugs.

The ticket:

1,2,3,4,6/2,3,5,8,9/8/6,9

$50

GL

That 7th is the most ingenious mess I've ever seen. Love Smart Rose from the rail getting 7F again, Ness Blinkers off (32%) and undefeated at the distance, and 5 other logicals

I just looked at the 7th, it's an absolute crapshoot.
I came up with the 1,2,3,4,6. I'm trying to decide if I should just go to bed.

I'm picking going to bed, and looking again in the AM... If I use 6 or 7, surely to god the stinking chalk will get home
may take a flyer and just use the 1,2,4 - but I've been brutalized doing that in the past.

This place is maddening

Bigs, me and you are on the same page again. This is what I have.
7th
1,2,3,4,6 for the reasons you have already listed
8th
on board with the 5,8,9. But I included the 1 also. She's stepping up, but has shown some speed and gets the rail on the cutback. With the 1 out, I'm replacing her with the 6. Decent Beyer first out and seemed to have excuses with the slop and appantly hitting the gate. I also realized(again) how wide open this race really is.
9th
I'm with you on the 8, but also included the 9. Slight drop and the shades come off. His last 2 races aren't too bad.
10th
I have the 6,9 too.

My ticket is shaping up to be
1,2,3,4,6
5,6,8,9
8,9
6,9 Cracked by a head in the finale!
$80
It might get tweaked a hair tomorrow.
Good Luck.

I lied and looked at the 8th... Holy Shi.....



Need 7 here - 2,3,4,5,6,8,9

Omega Code - 15% First time starters
Officer - 16% FTS - Sgt Carter broke in air first start 53 bsf
Cactus Ridge 18% FTS - Dontalktome hit gate/slop first time still managed a 58 bsf 2nd best field first start




I'm going to work instead.

Or use Dontalktome and Bruning Roma (36.3 bullet over the track) and spread in the 7th.

...Or go to work.

They do tend to do their most damage in the Pick 4. Here's hoping today is not the day.

Gate crew looks like Laurel and Hardy trying to load for the 8th. What a mess.

If you backed the 2, you should probably be relieve that they scratched him after that ordeal.

That's that for me. Didn't like the 6 at all. With the field dropping like flies at the gate, I was getting nervous. Rightfully so.

Bah.

Sorry Bigs, I only used the 6 in because the 1 scratched.
As far as them dropping, that might have been one of the worst loading jobs I have ever seen. Just a terrible job by the gate crew.
