“I’m A Believer” At Keeneland (10/9)

Oct 9th, 2011 | By | Category: Keeneland, Today's Picks

Fast and firm for the Sunday card — listed only 3 winners (none on top) yesterday, but take a look at the exacta box in race 1 and the exacta and triple box in race 5!  I will try and do better today.

In race 4, New Believer (#9) is 4 for 4 on the local track and gets plenty of pace to make a late run — key in all doubles and pick 3′s and play an exacta box with #’s 2 and 5

In race 9, The Grade 1 Spinster, Pachattack (#12) ran great in Personal Ensign in last start and can overcome a difficult post back on synthetic — key in all doubles and pick 3′s and play an exacta box with #’s 4 and 7.  Here’s the entire card and good luck!

Race 1: 5 and 2

Race 2: 9, 10 and 1

Race 3: 10, 11 and 5

Race 4: 9 (Best Bet) with 2 and 5

Race 5: 2 with 5 and 1

Race 6: 9 with 4 and 2

Race 7: 6 and 7

Race 8: 4 with 6 and 8

Race 9: 12 (Best Bet) with 4 and 7

Riding “Shotgun” At Keeneland (10/8)

Oct 8th, 2011 | By | Category: Keeneland, Today's Picks

Fast and firm for a great Saturday card at Keeneland’s fall meet — had a good run at this track earlier this year so let’s see how I do today.

In race 6, a very competitive Grade 2, Shotgun Gulch (#2) has won a grade 1 at this track under this rider and should be flying late in a race filled with speed — key in all multi-race wagers and play an exacta box with #’s 10 and 1.

In race 7, Bay to Bay (#1) cuts back to best distance, gets a good post and has run well over the course — price play in a tough race.  Key in all multi-race wagers and play an exacta box with #’s 3 and 7.  Here’s the entire card (Gio Ponti also looks good) and good luck!

Race 1: 5 and 2

Race 2: 2, 11 and 5

Race 3: 4 and 1

Race 4: 3 and 4

Race 5: 9 with 2 and 5

Race 6: 2 (Best Bet) with 10 and 1

Race 7: 1 (Best Bet) with 3 and 7

Race 8: 7, 11 and 2

Race 9: 5 and 4

Race 10: 7, 9 and 2



“Nay” Finds A Way At Keeneland (4/23)

Apr 23rd, 2011 | By | Category: Keeneland, Today's Picks

Fast but off the turf for the very difficult Saturday card at Keeneland.  I must say it has been a challenge during the meet — haven’t had a lot of winners on top and when I do list some nice prices, I can’t seem to have them in consecutive races.  Oh well, let’s see how I do today!

In race 8, The Giant’s Causeway, Chantilly Nayla (#9) is much better on the synthetic and has run well against Grade 2 company locally and gets the call in a race taken off the turf.  I’m keying in all multi-race wagers and playing an exacta box with #4. Here’s the entire card and good luck!

Race 1: 6 and 4

Race 2: 6 and 1

Race 3: 6 with 1 and 3

Race 4: 5 and 8

Race 5: 5 with 11 and 3

Race 6: 8 and 3

Race 7: 1 and 3

Race 8: 9 (Best Bet) and 4

Race 9: 3 and 2

Race 10: 7, 12 and 2



Be “Guarded” At Keeneland (4/22)

Apr 22nd, 2011 | By | Category: Keeneland, Today's Picks

Fast but off the turf for the Friday card — could be a very wet one so play according.

In race 7, Guarded Entrance (#1) is very consistent and should use the good post for early position — I’m keying in all multi-race wagers and playing an exacta box with #5.

In race 9, Washington Bridge (#1) gets back on synthetic with great connections in his corner — I’m keying in all multi-race wagers and playing an exacta box with #’s 6 and 13.  Here’s the entire card and good luck!

Race 1: 8 and 4

Race 2: 5 and 2

Race 3: 9 with 4 and 5

Race 4: 6 and 5

Race 5: 5 and 4

Race 6: 1, 6 and 7

Race 7: 1 (Best Bet) and 5

Race 8: 10, 2 and 7

Race 9: 1 (Best Bet) with 6 and 13

Race 10: 2, 6 and 9
