A Craving For “Sweets” At Aqueduct (4/25)

Apr 25th, 2010 | By | Category: Today's Picks

Muddy and soft (only race 4 is on the turf) on a horrible day in NY — I’ll be glad to see Belmont since the last few weekends at Aqueduct have been horrible!

In race 2, Very Sweet (#3) has experience on wet tracks and needed his last off a long layoff — I’m keying in all doubles and pick 3′s and playing an exacta box with Always a Party (#4).

In race 8, Star of New York (#3) got some help with some scratches of early speed types — can win from on or just off a modest pace at a short price.  I’m keying in all doubles and pick 3′s and playing an exacta box with Emma’s Posse (#1A).  Here’s the entire card and good luck!

Race 1: 4 and 3

Race 2: 3 (Best Bet) and 4

Race 3: 5 and 2

Race 4: 4 and 5

Race 5: 6 and 2

Race 6: 3 and 7

Race 7: 5 and 2

Race 8: 3 and 1

Race 9: 4 and 8



Always Wanting “More” At Aqueduct (4/24)

Apr 24th, 2010 | By | Category: Today's Picks

Fast and firm at Aqueduct on a beautiful day in NY.  In race 10, Fortissi More (#5) loves the local turf course and has run fast enough to beat these at a decent price.  I’m keying in the late double, pick 3 and pick 4 and playing an exacta box with Woodrunner (#8).

In race 6, Sounds Familiar (#6) towers over these on paper and returns from Florida — should win this at a short price.  I’m keying in all doubles and pick 3′s and playing an exacta box with Delightful Vicki (#7).

For all those playing the Derby Trial at Churchill, it may be wet, but I’m playing an exacta box of #’s 1, 9 and 4.  Here’s the entire card at Aqueduct and good luck!

“Tellum” How To Win At Gulfstream (4/24)

Apr 24th, 2010 | By | Category: Today's Picks

Fast and firm at Gulfstream with a competitive and exciting card on the last day of the meet.  I’ve had a great time handicapping Gulfstream on weekends since the beginning of the year I have a great flat bet profit on my “best bets” and, if I do well today, have a chance to have a flat bet profit on all win bets during the meet.  Today I will list 3 “best bets” because it’s a 12 race card!

In race 2, Tellum Berto (#5) is the absolute speed and should wire these at 2-1 or less.  I’m keying in all doubles and pick 3′s and playing an exacta box with Green Monster (#2).

In race 4, Michael Rules (#6) can stay close to the pace at 1 mile on turf and get the first run on Smart Manuever (#7). I’m keying in all doubles and pick 3′s and playing an exacta box with the #7 and Chosen Empire (#4).

In race 11, Granted Tiger (#5) gets an extra 16th on turf and can run down the leaders late.  I’m keying in the late double, pick 3 and pick 4 and playing an exacta box with Speak Easy Gal (#8). Here’s the entire card and good luck!

Pro “Edison” At Aqueduct (4/18)

Apr 18th, 2010 | By | Category: Today's Picks

Fast and firm at Aqueduct today after a great last 3 races on Saturday’s card.  Picked a $16 horse on top in race 7 with the cold exacta of $92.  Also listed the winner of race 8 and my best bet won race 9 for a $117 pick 3 and a cold exacta and triple in race 9 — the tri paid $138!  Hope to continue the momentum today.

In race 5, Break Water Edison (#1) returns from Gulfstream, get Dominguez to ride and a fast pace to run at — I’m keying in all doubles and pick 3′s and playing an exacta box with East End Tap (#4).

In race 9, Aheadofthejones (#6) towers over the field at 1 mile on turf — all Prado has to do is stay on the horse and we will take 3-5.  I’m keying in the late double, pick 3 and pick 4!  Here’s the entire card and good luck!

Race 1: 5 and 6
