After a really hot day of handicapping and an upset in the Travers, as well as a few results going my way I'm in a good mood so I've decided that I'll give Del Mar a go. Lets see what I can do on another great card of racing.
Race 1: 7-8-3-4
Race 2: 6-1-4-2
Race 3: 4-11-6-10
Race 4: 3-8-7-5
Race 5: 4-2-3-5 200k Grade 2 Del Mar Mile Handicap
Race 6: 6-2-4-9
Race 7: 3-2-6-7 250k Grade 2 Pat O'Brien Stakes
Race 8: 2-11-3-5
Race 9: 11-7-10-9 1 Mill. Grade 1 TVG Pacific Classic Stakes
Race 10: 2-1-9-6
Race 11: 5-6-2-1
Best Bet:
Race 5: #4 Obviously ( 3-5 ML ): One look at this horse shows why he is a 3-5 morning line, 3-2-1-0 this year, 15-8-4-2, hes only ever missed the board once, and don't expect him to get his second one here.
Race 9: #11 Game on Dude ( 5-2 ML ): 26-14-5-1, 5 million dollars earned, and only 6 years young. If I owned this horse I'm kicking my self for gelding him. Anyway this field is no soft field but the dude should have no problem at all winning this million dollar grade 1 stakes race. Put your money on this horse you will not regret it.
Horse to Watch:
Race 1: #7 My Slew ( 5-1 ML ): Coming off a win an Allowance Optional Claimer, if he runs a repeat performance of his last time out, he will be tough.

Race 14: 1-6-8-11
Horses to watch
Race 1: # 5 Dads Caps ( 12-1 ML ): This quick colt by Discreet cat has won his last two times out, hes in really tough today, I put him fourth in this race because he's coming out of an Allowance Optional Claimer and I'm not sure he has the class to run here, but he's got the speed, if he can use it to his advantage he could hit the top four for sure.
Race 2: #7 Scam ( 5-1 ML ): Coming off a nice third place finish, this colt by Giant's Causeway got a good morning line, for a horse that stands a real shot at hitting the board. He ran a 78 speed figure his first time out, in a tough Maiden Special Weight , Castellano retains the mount, and he gets a good one here.
Race 3: #1 Sycamore Lane ( 15-1 ML ): This debut runner for Gainesway Stable has put in a few really nice works on the Saratoga property, not the best of which was on the turf, he still ran a nice 48.55 seconds going four furlongs in his first turf workout, if he can repeat his speed from that workout his 15-1 price will make you a very happy person, this horse has me sitting on the fence though because his workouts on Belmont's dirt have been shotty at best, although all four of his works at saratoga were fantastic, and based on his breeding he should be really nice, if Junior Alvarado gives him the best trip he can, this colt has a shot in this one.
Race 8: #2 Rapscallion ( 8-1 ML ): His last outing was a maiden special weight at Saratoga, which he won by 2 and 1/4 lengths, after finishing third and second at Delaware Park, either he got lucky or he likes running at Saratoga, lucky him, hes back there to run again slightly harder. Odds are though that this horse improves yet again and manages to hit the top three, he looks pretty tough. \
Race 12: #2 Orb ( 4-1 ML ): You know who he is, some say he had the best shot to win the triple crown in 37 years, He's back for the first time since the Belmont, and the Kentucky derby winner has been preparing for this race, while Palace Malice and Verrazano have been racing the whole time. Orb's well rested, he's not the favourite, and we have to assume he's ready to go, most people are going to bet Palace Malice and Verrazano, because yes they're both very hot, but expect Orb to go up in price, and run a big race.
Ladies and Gentleman my woodbine picks will come tomorrow morning, enjoy this truly awesome Saratoga Card.

Friday Racing: Saratoga, Woodbine, and Los Alamitos
Well after a pretty nice day at Saratoga and currently doing alright at Remington, I'm back for my third straight day of picks. On my busiest afternoon of the week I've found time to handicap three tracks, Los Alamitos, Woodbine and Saratoga, yet again. The card at Saratoga includes the Grade 1 500,000 dollar Ballerina Stake, and to finish the day off we have a nice Quarter Horse card at Los Al. Lets see what I can do for ya.
Saratoga
Race 1: 5-7-1-2
Race 2: 2-3-5-6
Race 3: 1-5-2-7
Race 4: 1-8-7-9
Race 5: 7-1-2-3
Race 6: 4-1-3-8
Race 7: 3-1-6-7
Race 8: 8-5-2-3
Race 9: 1-6-10-5
Race 10: 12-11-2-3
Best Bet:
Race 4: #1 Yo Blue (6-5 ML ): This is a three year old gelding by Johannesburg out of Sparkling blue, He's coming out of a very tough starter optional claiming 75k where he finished fourth but he just dropped from the second spot, before that he hit the board 5 starts in a row, 4 of them being wins. He should be really tough in this field, if he can handle the distance this time out, he wins.
Horse to watch:
Race 10: #12 King of Broadway (6-1 ML) : A three year old colt by Sky Mesa, King of Broadway has been putting in some nice works and finished second in a Maiden Special Weight his last time out to a hot Sliver and Onions, I think if King of Broadway hits a good stride he wins it.
Woodbine
Race 1: 3-4-5-1A
Race 2: 1-5-3-7
Race 3: 6-2-4-1
Race 4: 1-5-6-2
Race 5: 11-8-2-7
Race 6: 3-9-1-4
Race 7: 8-3-5-4
Race 8: 3-4-1-5
Race 9: 10-2-1-3
Best Bet:
Race 1: #3 Seawatch ( ML 6-5 ): This gelding by Woodman has hit the board 8 of hit last 10 and hit the board each of his last 6, winning 3 of them and finishing 2nd the other three times. He's in a fairly easy starter allowance for horses who have started for 12.5k or less this year, Seawatch has dominated this year, he's got Luis Contreras aboard and , Luis would have to have a really terrible ride for this horse to lose, count on him winning.
Horses to watch:
Race 1: #4 Mail Order Groom ( 6-1 ML ): This horse has been in my sights since I first saw him race a few months ago. Coming off for straight board hits, and a win in his last one, a second before that and two thirds before that. He's running real well this year and I think he will run a big race here.
Race 4: #1 Peggy'sanexecutive ( 9-2 ML ): A three year old filly by Bold Executive, she could be having a much better year, but shes dropping class for the second straight race, before this she ran in a 25k claimer and before that was Maiden Special Weight, she could find her class here and be a big factor here, her last out was against a few real tough claimers and if they gave her another shot at that level she might do a little better, but she should have an easier time here, don't underestimate her.
Los Alamitos
Race 1: 5-1-4-2
Race 2: 6-1-5-4
Race 3: 4-2-5-3
Race 4: 5-3-1-4
Race 5: 6-1-2-3
Race 6: 6-7-4-3
Race 7: 1-4-6-5
Race 8: 8-1-6-9
Race 9: 4-3-1-6
Best bet:
Race 9: #4 Runaway Foose: Finished second in tough maiden her first time out, this filly by Foose is really nicely bred to bat, expect her to run a big race, she's in tough but she was really impressive her first time out, she should be the best in this group.
Horse to Watch:
Race 8: #8 Royal Regard (4-1 ML ): This 3 year old gelding by Chicks Regard is 3-1-1-1 this year, hes been really hot, beaten late by the #1 and the #5 in this race in his last race, he ran a winning race and still lost however and I think he'll take advantage of the second chance here.
Good Luck to all placing bets, enjoy the races folks!
