Good and off the turf at Gulfstream which makes the card that much more difficult to handicap with all the scratches and a drying out track to contend with today.

In race 9, The Gulfstream Park Handicap, Biker Boy (#4) gets his own pace, his favorite track and if Munnings runs, he may not be the favorite.  I’m keying in all doubles and the late pick 3 and playing a win bet.

In race 2, Poetic Princess (#3) likes a wet track and likes the mile distance — I’m keying in all doubles and pick 3’s and playing an exacta box with Maria’s Daughters (#7) and Shady spot (#6).  Here’s the entire card and good luck!

Race 1: 9 and 11

Race 2: 3 (Best Bet) with 7 and 6

Race 3: 6 and 9

Race 4: 5 and 8

Race 5: 9 and 10

Race 6: 5, 4 and 1

Fast and very cold at Aqueduct — hoping my best bets stay white hot!

In race 4, The Busher, Dazzling Deborah (#4) gets the perfect pace scenario with lots of stretchout speed in front of her — has solid local connections and can stay close enough even if there is a speed bias to run down the leaders late.  I’m keying in all doubles and pick 3’s and playing an exacta box with Speightful Affair (#6).

In race 8, Empty Wallet (#5) just missed from an outside post and goes out for a good first claim barn.  I’m keying in all doubles and pick 3’s and playing an exacta box with Digger Karakorum (#3).  Here’s the entire card and good luck!
