Fall On A “Cliff” At Gulfstream (1/24)

Jan 24th, 2010 | By mircon1 | Category: Today’s Picks

Fast and firm at Gulfstream today with a very competitive card on tap.  Hope to do better than yesterday’s 0 for 10, but I did list 4 winners and had a nice double and pick 3 in races 7-9.

In race 6, Cliff Meadows (#11) can overcome an outside post by staying close to a soft pace at 1 1/8 miles on the turf.  I’m keying in all doubles and pick 3’s and playing an exacta box with To Tell The Truth (#1) and Hariolus (#2).

In race 9, Appalachian Trail (#7) seems well meant with Velazquez in the saddle — can upset at 1 1/16 on the turf.  I’m keying in the late double and pick 3 and playing an exacta box with Big Al (#10) and Marl (#3).  Here’s the entire card and good luck!

Race 1: 3 and 2

Race 2: 3 and 6

Race 3: 4 and 6

Race 4: 10 and 11

Race 5: 5 and 7

Race 6: 11 (Best Bet) with 1 and 2

Race 7: 2 and 4

Race 8: 4 and 6

Race 9: 7 (Best Bet) with 10 and 3

Race 10: 7, 3 and 4



Trying To “Document” A Winner At Aqueduct (1/24)

Jan 24th, 2010 | By mircon1 | Category: Today’s Picks

Fast on the inner with rain coming late in the day.  Had a decent day yesterday with 3 winners on top, including my best best in race 6 at 6-1 (also hit the cold exacta and trifecta in the same race).  Unfortunately, I couldn’t string them together so the rolling doubles and pick 3’s were not profitable.

Today, in race 9, a very competitive statebred optional claimer at a mile, Undocumented (#1) gets inside today in a race packed with speed — the pick to post the upset at a decent price.  I’m keying in the late double and pick 3, playing a nice show bet and boxing in the exacta with Run With The Lark (#9) and Pegasion (#6).

In race 5, Four Shore (#3) goes second off a layoff and has some back class — I’m keying in all doubles and pick 3’s and playing an exacta box with the favored Contessa entry (2/2b).  Here’s the entire card and good luck!

Race 1: 1 and 3

Race 2: 1A and 6

Race 3: 3 and 6

Race 4: 4 and 7

Race 5: 3 (Best Bet) and 2

Race 6: 1 and 7

Race 7: 4, 6 and 2

Race 8: 4 and 1

Race 9: 1 (Best Bet) with 9 and 6
