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 6-1-5 Rating ⭐⭐

#6 Mayor Remo– missed by a neck in second in a key race in which the winner and third place finisher came back to win as did this gelding drawing off to win by 4 last out. He finds a similar field and looks good for the repeat.

#1 Exponential-has been in the money in 6 of 8 over this surface and looks for another in the money finish today.

#5 Osprey-missed by only 4 last out while taking on tougher 12.5k claimers. He drops to 8k and should be a good price.

#4 Big Bee-missed by only 2 in her debut while running at Tampa then missed by the same margin at Keeneland in a nice effort. She came off a year layoff last out and showed brief speed before tiring late against tougher at Belmont. She needed that one and should be a decent price.

#3 Economic Hangover-ran evenly in her debut last out on the turf at Churchill. She shows good works since and trainer is hitting at 27% with his maidens in their second start.

#5 Jan’s Girl-has missed by just a length and a half in back to back and should be close again today.

#6 Laloba Feroz-missed by just 2 ¾ last out against similar and could run into the payoffs again today at a decent price.

Selections 1-4-7-6 Rating ⭐⭐

#1 Magic Eclipse-came off a 5 month layoff last and finished 2nd just ¾ of a length behind a repeat winner. He then came back and got the score last out in his best effort to date. He is making his third start back today and looks good for the repeat.

#4 Father Glado-broke his maiden in his second career start then missed by just a length to Grand Sonata in a 100k stake then finished 5 lengths behind that same rival in the grade 3 Kitten’s Joy. He then came off a 5 month layoff last out and missed by 5. He runs for 23% winning trainer, needed his last race and will come running late.

#7 Klugman-drew off to break his maiden by 13 lengths then did not fire before drawing off to win by 4 lengths. He showed good speed last out before finishing 3rd against tougher and should be close from the start.

#6 Ludington-missed by just half a length last out and was claimed. New trainer is hitting at 21% and this gelding shows two fast works since his last race.

Selections 8-2-3 Rating ⭐⭐

#8 Countless Dreams-drew off to break her maiden by 3 lengths two starts back then did not fire against tougher last out. She drops from 30k to 20k and will show speed at a price.

#2 California Gigi-finished second last out in her best effort to date while making her first dirt start. She is improving and is the one to beat.

#3 Mi Negrita– has been showing speed against tougher and fits better with these.

Selections 5-7-8 Rating ⭐⭐

#5 Nice Baby-finished second in both of her career starts and today should be graduation day.

#7 Shiloh-showed speed in her debut before a 6th place finish. Trainer is hitting at a big 35% with his maidens in their second start and we should get a good price.

#8 Dorth Vader-first timer from the Yates barn who is hitting at 22% with is first timers.

Selections 4-3-1 Rating ⭐⭐

#4 Rubysa-finished a length and a quarter behind the program favorite in here. Trainer Zerpa who is hitting at 26% here removes the blinkers and this filly shows a bullet work since.

#3 Splicer-has been at the top of her game all year with a 2-3-1 record from her 7 starts. She was claimed last out at this same level while missing by just half a length and is the one to beat.

Selections 6-7-2-8 Rating ⭐⭐

#2 Nikee Kan-finished just behind our top pick in two straight and should be right there again today.

#6 Mudshaft-has been in the money in her last three in a row and looks for another in the money finish today.
