​CASHED ON 8 OF 12

Gulfstream Park

I Play Exacta Boxes

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 3-12-11-1 Rating ⭐

#3 North Caucasus-was claimed two back for 25k from an 0 for 17 trainer by Maker who has won 128 races this year. This gelding showed immediate improvement in his first start for Mike while missing by only 4 at the same 25k level. He drops down to 16k today and that should do the trick.

#12 Tricky Strong-showed brief speed against MSW runners in his debut last out. Trainer has won with 1 of his 5 starters which happened to be a runner dropping from MSW to MCL just like this one is and he got 6-1.

#11 Last Dream– first timer from the Nicks barn who is hitting at 25% with his maiden making their debut for a tag.

#1 Baker Block-is making his third career start and making his third straight drop in class. Joseph is hitting at 26% here, adds blinkers and this colt should improve.

#5 Zambak– rallied to break her maiden two back and was claimed for 16k by 24% winning trainer. He moves this filly up to this same 20k level and she had a rough trip while finishing 4th while running her best race to date. She will be a decent price and a clean trip would help her chances.

#6 Winning At Ease-is the only two time winner in the field. She rallied to get her second win two back while being claimed then was put in a stake race last out and finished 9th. She is drops in for 20k and fits better with these.

#1 Rosa Star-has been in the money in 6 of her 7 starts over this surface and looks for another in the money finish today.

#2 Cagua-ran her best race to date last out while finishing third at this same level and will come running late.

Selections 2-7-9-10 Rating ⭐

#2 Travel Guide-missed by just a head at this same distance and level last out beating a few of these same rivals. He should get a similar set up today and will come running late.

#7 Dunkle-fought for the lead last out and missed by just a length and a quarter in the same race our top pick exits. He gets a rider upgrade and that will help his chances.

#9 Raging Whirlwind-ran his best race to date last out while finishing just ¾ of a length behind our top pick while running on this surface for the first time and was 39-1. He will be a big price again today and could give us a big payoff.

#10 Tap N the Gold– first timer from the O’Connell barn who is hitting at 18% with her maidens making their debut for a tag.

Selections 3-4-5 Rating ⭐⭐⭐

#3 Gemma’s Curls– went wire to wire to break her maiden in her debut by 5 lengths. She then made the lead but had to settle for second last out in a stake. She cuts back in distance and that will make her tough to catch.

#4 Showgirl Lynne B– broke her maiden in her debut last out and is the one to beat.

#5 Fast Kimmie– rallied to break her maiden two back then missed by only 4 on the turf last out in a stake. She switches back to the all weather and will come running late.

#3 Frosted Armour-has been in the money in his last 6 in a row with 4 seconds and 2 thirds. He looks like the speed and the cut back in distance will help his chances.

#7 Big and Classy-drops in class from 35k to 20k and should be close from the start.

#2 Proud Contender-finished second at this same level two back then finished 4th last out against tougher 35k claimers. He drops back down and will come running late.

#5 Wicked Finn-drew off to win by 5 two starts back for 12.5k then showed speed before tiring late last out against much tougher. He drops down to 10k, runs for 20% winning trainer and should be a good price.

#1 Thenorthremembers-rallied to get the score at this same level two back then did not fire against tougher last out. He drops back down and that will help his chances.
