Race 1: 1M T Md20k F&M 3yo^

1. Freckle De Fecke- recent form not so great, 3rd different jock today, has back races at BEL that can make her set a pace but I find it hard to use her on top. Probably a must use in exactas.

2. Karlies Baby – would really need to turn things around. Outsider, but I would include in exactas.

3. Banner Wave – disappointing race off the layoff, gets positive rider change today, lightly raced, can improve off last. Will see what price she offers at race time and possibly use in wagering.

4. Congrats in Blue – First Time Starter, I use for hedging only (double or pick 3)

5. Reina La Keilsy – at 9/2 Morning Line Odds, I want nothing to do with this one. Nothing jumps out at me. This is an underlay. I have to think her price will drift much higher by post time.

6. Toro Femme – Too many tries, too much time off, would be a big surprise.

7. Heading Home – Contender, 2nd race of Lay off, only 4th time on turf, good Jockey, he got to know her last Out. Will see what odds are offered by post time.

8. Alexandra’s Joy – a must use, lightly raced, great connections, breeding, will see what the odds are at Post Time.

9. JP Caller – outsider

10. Flamenco Tiger – outsider use in exactas.

Summary: To me the race is between 3,7,8. I don’t make any predictions until final odds (hence my name and motto to live by 1MinuteToPost).

Based on odds I’ll construct some exactas and doubles and maybe a pick 3

 

Race 2. 1 1/16 T ALW 50kN1W

I’m using 1,5,6,7 as I think the races goes to one of these runners. Will probably pass on wagers other than using these runners in Multi race wagers.
