                                           PREDICTOR SAYS BEST BETS

                                SANTA ANITA Saturday February 189th

                                       IN HANDICAPPERS PREFERENCE

FIRST RACE: #3CACTUS FLYER(won) picks up Victor for today’s trip as Tyler is at GG, playable however no single. #5 KAZROAD(3rd) lost all chance at the break in last I like the rider change for down the hill, Joe will sit chilly. #1 HIT THE BRIZ (4th)draws fence however shot field off sets that, Bejarano will be flying late.

SECOND RACE: As we say “Best Stride Too Late” that  was the note on #4AUTOCUE(won) in last, little more ground today. #7 HEROI DO BAFRA(2nd) in my estimation comes off a very dull outing, front end is his for the asking today. #3 SOUVENIR SLEW(5th) completes the three logical, I see nothing else, however I’ll key top choice, payback time.

THIRD RACE: I go two days with no solid Trip plays, today I get two in same race, however both look to be price plays. #9 MELBRISHA(2nd) loses pilot to another state, the one to beat. Hard to say from where I sit  what happened to #8 NENA IDEAL(4th) in last, she fell apart too quick for me, my note said “playback”. #2 IDA OF MARCH( won-$11-12-1-ML) has never been closer then five at the end; I have her lacking racing room through the stretch.

Pick three pays…..$81.30

FOURTH RACE: You can see by the conditions being written races tough to fill, #4 FOURTHREEFOREUCLID( won-$9) gets in under the added 50k clause, one to beat.. #6 MINISTERS ALTERBOY (2nd) draws an ideal post for stalking and running down the early speed. #1 ARKHAM ASYLUM(out)  will have to overcome the draw, cloys been good to me Talamo fits him well.   Pick Four pays $371…..Pick Three pays  $174.00   Had it twice, cost me $18….on single/all/single…..

FIFTH RACE: Player beware in here, wide open group, #8 FYVIO (5th) faired well going down the hill in turf debut, slight edge. #9 LET’S GO INDIAN(out) I can toss in the mix based on last to a very solid group. #3 FANDINO(2nd) wasn’t embarrassed in debut, was given several weeks to recover, check out that nice tab. Came close with Fandino..playback…

SIXTH RACE: #5 WARREN’S MOON(3rd-gave way late) gets the necessary yardage this afternoon and retains leading rider. #8 SEA EMPRESS(out) sheds the hood today after following the top choice in debut, one negative, terrible work which I presume was with out the hood,  on bright side trainer may have seen something works don’t tell everything trust me.  #3 COSTANTA(won)  drops back to claiming tag, but still faces open company.

SEVENTH RACE: Call me crazy but despite the post draw I like PERFECT MAGIC(2nd) I see as only speed.  #10 AUCUTE VELOCITY(out) threw a real clinker in last, possible distance may fit him better. #11 SAINT CINDY(out) I can toss in the mix.

EIGHTH RACE: #6 IN THE SLIPS (dull) looks to be facing an easier task today, unless something freaky happens she wins. #5 BAB AT THE BREWSTER( strange run) combines with leading rider, not a bad work tab. #4 ANDINA(3rd) tries a different kind of Cat today, interesting to see how she fairs.

NINTH RACE: #4 DANCING IN SILKS(out) has won at the distance she also gets off the rail today,  just enough trouble to be costly. #3 BOB BLACK JACK( won) is another interesting play, from the looks of that work tab I’d say he was ready for seven furlongs. The youngster #6 VENTANA (2nd)gets tested today, Baffert uses Victor so move comes as n surprise.

TENTH RACE: #3 CHAILEPIS ( 3rd-longer) doesn’t win this I’m in deep trouble, impressed me in last.

#2 OL’DOGTOWN(won) is always good for part. #4 MAGIC DUST showed some signs of life in last.

TEN  RACES DO TAKE IT’S TOLL……..HOWEVER IT WA S SEVERAL MIDDLE RACES THAT TOOK ALL THE TIME…. THANK GOD FOR EARLIER RACES......

                                       IN HANDICAPPERS PREFERENCE

 

FIRST RACE:  This race came up short in the speed department, I really don’t like #4 SMALL BUT MIGHTY( gave way) however I can’t overlook speed is here. #2 TALLAHSOCEAN(2nd) wins it all if top one backs up at all. #6 UNUSUAL JANE(3rd) when she runs, runs well fresh, race gets no part of my money.

SECOND RACE: #2 CRAIG’S STORM(3rd) fits much better with these only beaten five to those heavyweights in last. #1 CHANGING( won) shows a drop however it’s still above his winning level, bad group in last. #6 FIGHT ON (2nd)off the routes can stalk and bounce in here.

THIRD RACE: #7 DAVE’S REVENGE( in air) looks good on paper however certainly no lock. #3 FORVER MY LOVE(out) is always a danger if allowed to settle in early, perfect rider for do that. #1 MADELINE RUBY(last) beaten favorite in last, over bet in my estimation fits better here.

FOURTH RACE: Looks like many of the cast-offs are in here, go deep…..#7 FAMILIAR SHINE(5th) should never have lost last possible seven will work better then eight. Somebody liked #9 LITTLE RULER(won) in last and that was for 50k, the lesser of the Garcia rides, don’t get confused. #5 DIPLO(4th) changes barns again, I can use this guy with leading rider up.

FIFTH RACE: #6 WARRENS APPEAL doesn’t have to contend with Welken also she and #4 ALPINE YODEL sneak in under these conditions combining or 11 victories. #1 WIN ALLISON WIN changed hands given some R & R had nice prep and now looks groomed to win one. Ugly………

SIXTH RACE:  #2 SILK STREET is proven going long, I also prefer the company he faced in debut over those that #7 VICTORY WITH HONOR (stopped) hooked, winner of last came back to falter. #4 CLOSE TO THE EDGE( rough going) has solid route breeding underneath.

SEVENTH RACE:  Two horses fit the old saying, “When F & M get good they get real good” #4A JEALOUS WOMAN(won) may be facing her sternest task taking on the six year-old mare #5 WELKEN (2nd)who also goes after her fourth in a row.

#1 DEVINE ACTREE isn’t chopped liver, exciting feature Friday .

EIGHTH RACE: #5 KALOOKAN COMMNDO(out) looks to be sitting on graduation. #11 SALTWATER M D(won) is in different hand snow, I look for marked improvement. 1a UNUSUALLY LUCKY(2nd)) takes huge drop from open maiden special to restricted 50K, look out.

                                SANTA ANITA  Thursday February 18th

                                       IN HANDICAPPERS PREFERENCE

FIRST RACE: #4 PAULASHORSEONYA(3rd) debuts at four that’s of some concern however from this barn they start at five furlongs I can live wit it, check out the gate work. #5 BROOKIE GIRL(won) off her PP’s has to have problems, scary move for me. #6 WILLOW MISS(out) has been burning up the tab at Training Center.

SECOND RACE: Far too many question marks in here, #3 ABSOLUTE GLORY(dull-5th) looks far more honest then the others. #5 GENERAL DAN(2nd) comes off two solid outings I can use.

I told you I thought #8 CAMISADO  (3rd)was a bad claim, seldom step up off Moger, lever will help.

THIRD RACE:  #8 TORREY CLIFFS(3rd) I could single post draw gives her the edge today. #1 SPANISH BUNNY(2nd) gets barn favorite pilot today, I know she’s been away but these trainers don’t enter to prep. #5 HARBOR READY (out)goes for low percentage barn however she’s bred to run all day.

FOURTH RACE: #4 FIONA FREUD( won-$13) has some back class, I can take a shot with her price will be right. #6 A SASSY FUSAICHI(3rd) will set the early pace she may not stop today on stretch out. #9 PRINCESS SUSAN M (out) looks very solid underneath.

FIFTH RACE: #4 BIRDIE BIRDIE (4th)is surrounded by speed, heady ride by Valdivia can win this. #9 SLEEP TIGHT(2nd) hasn’t won in quite some time so it’s tough to get excited about her chances, however times have changed, quality not what it used to be. #1 TAMERIN  ( rough trip-d’q’d)has the benefit of the fence, turf speed has been holding.

SIXTH RACE: Office wrote enough conditions in here to make sure it went, #4 WITTY squeezes in barely(won). #5 MADE FOR MAGIC knows no limits mare takes them all on, she’s game. Those claiming victories aided U R ALL THAT I AM(3rd) to sneak in, six victories nothing to overlook in condition races.

SEVENTH RACE: #9 SAMANTHA’S RULE(4th) is well placed once again, barns picks they’re spots, she’s a player once again. The ENTRY looks very useable, providing ALWAYS IN STYLE( won) goes. My sleeper in here is #7 KRISTEN’S LIL LADY( rough going-late) she gets off the fence today, in last she was going best of all late.

EIGHTH RACE: #9 LED ADVANTAGE(3rd) has enough speed to clear early I look for her number to pop up today. With #7 POCATELLO WILD KAT(2nd)  it’s a matter of getting up in time I don’t see any speed duels developing up front. This leads me to #4 THIS TIME BABY (5th) the possible early foot who’s bred to handle two turns.

NOTE: Daddy always said there would be days like this……lol!

 

GOOD LUCK…….KRISTEN’S LI LADY only Trip horse in today……..
