Clear and fast in NY.  The snowstorm petered out but let’s hope my handicapping doesn’t in what ended up to be a pretty competitive card.

In race 1, Afrikaner (#2) should get the golden rail trip behind the the dueling speeds — best bet of the day at 2-1.  I’m keying in the double and pick 3 and playing an exacta box with Four Star General (#1A).

In race 3, Peppi Knows (#3) ran a great two-turn race in the Remsen, will offer value against an odds on runner who has never routed before.  I’m keying in all doubles and pick 3’s and playing an exacta box with Turf Melody (#1). Here’s the entire card and good luck!

Race 1: 2 (Best Bet) and 1A

Race 2: 4 and 2

Race 3: 3 (Best Bet) and 1

Race 4: 4 with 7 and 8

Race 5: 9 and 4

Race 6: 11, 3 and 7

Race 7: 3, 2 and 11

Race 8: 2 with 1 and 3

Race 9: 1 with 9 and 7
