Take it away, Joe!
R1: 1-5-3-4
Golden Victory is trying the lower level Maidens for the first time after being in bigger Maiden Claiming races in Southern California. All of Golden Victory’s runs though have been underwhelming and that is why I’m going against this one. Beaten favorite and has only had a third as his best placing. Paper Boy and Sizzling Indian could improve having a second start and out of the two I prefer Paper Boy after his last effort in the same level. Ran third to Zero Bucks Given and while green coming out the gate, rallied to nab a third. Watch the market for the new comer Fromajacktoaking.
R2: 5-6-1-3
R3: 5-4-2-3
R4: 2-6-1-4
R5: 5-7-2-1
R6: 6-1-3-4
R7: 8-7-9-2
R8: 8-2-1-7
This is one of the wide open races on the card with a lot of horses trying to keep their winning streak alive. In the big field I’m going with Our Bold Prince on top. This is an interesting one as they tried to put him in a claiming race in his penultimate start, where he ran third without being claimed. They put him in a higher level allowance race and won as the favorite. Coming back off a layoff back in January and showing signs of improvements since his two runs, not to mention a lot of bullets in his work outs. You might get a sneaky price on this gelding. But if you were to play the horizontal bets like a pick 4, it is a race where you should spread.
R9: 4-7-3-2
Best Bet:
Race 3 : 5 Joy Maker
Value Bets:
Race 1: 1 Paper Boy
Race 4: 2 Raiderette
Race 8: 8 Our Bold Prince
Good luck!
