In races with 3 selections the total cost will be $6 for a $1 bet In races with 4 selections the total cost will be $12 for a $1 bet
The Win Candidates are in order from our top pick to our fourth (or third).
However, we root for the two biggest prices to run 1st and 2nd as it helps our payoffs in our exacta boxes. It does not matter to me if it is our top pick or our fourth- I am trying to make money!
If you have any questions just let me know,

Selections 1-6-4-5 Rating
#1 Solair- had a rough trip in her debut. She was shut off at the start, then raced 5 wide while finishing 3rd beaten just 2 lengths. She needed that one and should get the money.

#4 South Pacific-finished third at this same level last out. She has speed and should be close from the start.

Selections 5-4-6-2 Rating
#5 Royal Squeeze-10 year old warrior has a 17-6-13 record from his 70 starts with over 705k in earnings. He was claimed last out at this same level and new trainer is hitting at a big 29% with his claims in their first start.
#4 Long Beach Kid-drops from 10k to this weak $6250 and should be a decent price.
#6 Nacho Papa-finished second last out in one of his better races to date while beating our top pick. He will be a good price and could run into the payoffs again today.
#2 Sir Aggravator-is coming off back to back seconds missing by a neck then a nose last out. He has speed and should be close from the start.

#5 Royal Attitude– first timer from the Fawkes barn is working well for his debut and should be a decent price.
#1 Cash It-was bumped after the start but rallied to finish third last out beaten 3 lengths. He runs for 20% winning trainer and will improve with a clean trip.

#4 Chitienne-has the speed to make the lead and this cut back in distance will help.

Selections 8-1-2-7 Rating
#8 Brody’s Honor-showed speed and got the score two back for 35k then got a bad ride from 10 lbs bug rider Huayas last out and missed by 2 at this same level. She gets a rider upgrade to Derby winning Leon and that will help her chances at a good price.
#1 Jazzy T-has been at the top of her game all year with a 3-3-2 record from her 9 starts. She is coming off a 5 length romp in her first start for new connections after the claim and is the one to beat.
