Race 3 - Maiden Special Weight - 9.0f on the Dirt. Purse: $44000 Class Rating: 75
RECOMMENDED CHOICES
# 8 PHILANTHROPIST 8/5
# 6 CONFIRMED 7/2
# 7 BANDIT NAILHEAD 5/1
PHILANTHROPIST is the strongest wager in this race. Has to be carefully examined against this group displaying decent numbers as of late and an average Equibase Speed Figure of 83 under similar conditions. Earned a solid Equibase Speed Figure in the last race. Can run another good one in this contest. The average class fig of 81 makes this one tough to beat. CONFIRMED - Could provide positive profits based on quite good recent Equibase Speed Figs with an average of 72. Well above average win clip at this distance/surface. BANDIT NAILHEAD - Will probably come out sharp - I have liked the way this colt has moved promptly to the lead recently. Has been running quite well and has among the strongest speed in the race for today's distance.

Choice Plays:
#2 WILD WAGER (ML=6/5)
#3 DIANAS WELCOME (ML=5/2)
#4 MOUNTAIN SLEWPY (ML=5/1)
WILD WAGER - The return on investment when Romero and Sherman get together is tremendous. I predict a perfect trip. Stalk the pace, and rally on the turn. Gelding is a few starts into a return here. Should give a big performance today. This animal is tops in earnings per race. He looks solid in today's event. DIANAS WELCOME - Chad and Martin partnered together are a horseplayer's friend. MOUNTAIN SLEWPY - Last workout was the second fastest of the day. Unquestionably on edge for a good one today.
Vulnerable Contenders: #5 ASCLEPIUS (ML=7/2), #1 U BETCHA JOE (ML=8/1)
ASCLEPIUS - This questionable contender ran a mediocre speed figure last out. He shouldn't show signs of improvement and will probably suffer defeat in today's race running that fig. U BETCHA JOE - Finished first in his most recent effort with a run-of-the-mill speed rating. When I look at today's class rating, it would take an improved performance to score after that in this bunch.

Choice Plays:
#3 ABSOLUTE ADVANTAGE (ML=7/2)
#1 KODAN (ML=5/2)
#6 NAME APPEAL (ML=3/1)
ABSOLUTE ADVANTAGE - Looking at today's Equibase class figure, this horse is up against an easier group than last time around the track at Oaklawn. You should disregard that last contest at Oaklawn on a track listed as good where he finished out of the money. Should do well in this race on a normal track. KODAN - Corbett and Coatney partnered with one another are a horseplayer's friend. This gelding is in first-rate form right now. Ran second last time around the track and comes back soon. Is ranked at the top in earnings per start (EPS). A strong try right here can increase that bankroll. That 69 fig this gelding earned in his last affair tells me he's a chief player this time around. NAME APPEAL - I undeniably see good things for this magnificent animal right here.
Vulnerable Contenders: #2 C T KING OFTHEROAD (ML=4/1), #8 KAOUGH (ML=6/1)
C T KING OFTHEROAD - This gelding hasn't been showing me anything positive in the last two outings. KAOUGH - This mount has no victories in his last ten races. He's probably not worth the price on the win end today.

# 7 ALIVE RIME 5/1
I've got to go with REAL AND FREE. Has solid Equibase Speed Figures and has to be considered for a bet for this event. Could beat this group given the 76 Equibase Speed Figure garnered in her last outing. Has been moving admirably and has among the best speed in the race for today's distance. DOUBLE TALKER - Could go off at a nice price and has some positive attributes going for him. Has put up solid speed figures in short races in the past. ALIVE RIME - Could best this group based on the speed rating - 67 - of his last contest. Could provide positive gains based on respectable recent speed figures with an average of 68.
