Belmont Park Race Play #2 Bignose
Drops slightly in class to meet $40,000 filly claimers off a decent second place run two months ago. Three year old should improve and win with class drop. Look for about 8-5.
Arlington Park Race 1 Play #3 Worthy Forum
Was claimed for $10,000 at Keeneland but drops into much easier spot against $7500 claimers here. Trainer is an amazing 10-for-20 (50%!!) off the claim. Hot jockey aboard. Closer will get pace to run into.
Arlington Park Race 9 Play #12 High Chant
Pick is for TURF ONLY. Horse makes second career start going long on the grass. Lousy post position but solid trainer and rider. Illinois-bred meets open company even though he could face fellow state breds for a smaller purse. That's a sign of confidence. Very well bred for an Illinois-bred.
Lone Star Park Race 8 Gr.III WinStar Distaff Play #7 Tara's Touch
Pick is for TURF ONLY. Longshot. Closed nicely to win a 5 1/2 furlong grass stakes at Keeneland and stretches out to a mile, her best distance when racing in South Africa. Should stalk a solid pace. May be overlooked in wagering because of the large field and the presence of top Southern Calif shipper Valentine Dancer.
Hollywood Park Race 8 Gr. I Gamely Breeders Cup Play #2 Nadeszhda
Pick is for TURF ONLY. Absolutely awful field for a Grade I race. Bobby Frankel's decision to not run star filly Megahertz creates an opportunity for my pick to win a big one. Just missed to Megahertz in a Grade II last out. Pace scenario actually favors #5 Miss Terrible (box her in exacta with my pick) but my choice can show some speed if needed. Trainer has won or placed with a stunning 17 or his 24 starters at the Hollywood meet.
