Churchill Downs Race 1 Play #2 Steelyeyed
Ran second and third in last two at this exact same level. Track's leading trainer switches to key rider as horse turns back to its favorite distance.
Churchill; Downs Race 10 Play #7 Indy Groove
Filly just missed at this class and distance last out. Two solid works since. Speed figures tower over competition. Solid trainer.
Belmont Park Race 6 Play #5 Yingyingying
Pick is for TURF ONLY. While this maiden is 0-for-10, three of its last four tries have been in stakes competition. California based ships to New York to face easier. Top SoCal rider Mike Smith, in town for another race, gets the mount.
Belmont Park Race 8 Play #3 Miss Coronado
Pick is good for TURF OR DIRT. Possible value here despite BobbyFrankel-Jerry Bailey combination. Rested since April loss at Churchill Downs to a strong allowance horse, this horse returns to stakes competition after already winning at a higher level on dirt. Frankel horses always seem to improve in summer. Unusally quick workouts for a Frankel horse. Primed for breakout effort.
Belmont Park Race 9 Play #4 Dark Whisper
Pick is for TURF ONLY. Four year old makes first start of year off an eight month layoff. Meets typically non-descript field of New York breds. Trainer awesome off the layoff.
Arlington Park Race 6 Play#9 Awesome Glory
Makes second start of career after getting strong speed figure in finishing second first time out. Was more than seven lengths clear of third place horse. If rains come, breeding aweome for wet track. Likely short price but faces rather light competition. Wins wire to wire.
Yesterday's recap: yuk. One scratch, five plays with one second place and four off the board, screwing up a sterling ytd record with a -$87 on the day. Still up for the year against heavy racetrack juice.
All plays based on $10 to win and place with criteria being best value for likely winners.
