Saratoga Race Course 7, 11, 12
Gulfstream Park Proper 5, 9, 10, 11, 12
Del Mar Thoroughbred Club 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11

Pay-side (Weekend/Weekday): Today…

Arlington 2, 5
BelTerra 3, 4, 5, 6
Delpark 4
Ellis Park 9
Golden Gate 7, 9
Kentucky 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10
Louisiana 5, 6, 7
Monmouth 2, 3
Retama 9
Remington 2, 4, 6, 8
Woodbine 4, 7, 10

Today’s Stakes Pageantry: Del Mar 6, 9, Gulfstream 9, 10, 11, 12, Saratoga 11 on the free page. On the pay-side it’s Kentucky 7, 9.

Obvious two-filly showdown in Columbus 1: #4 Mabloom, #3 Who’s Catty. Likewise in the sixth there: #7 Haveonefordroad, #1 Morning Shadow.

In a sea of contentious races at Kentucky, #10 One Legend emerges as an island of short-priced order in Race 8. That’s flowery.

Fave-longshot pairing in Marquis 7: #8 Holiday Maker, #5 Victory Storm.

Same dynamic in Monmouth 10: #3 Strict Compliance, #6 Jellicle Ball.

#2 Kristofferson is the single in Northlands 7.

#4 Primo Via can upset Keystone 11. So can #2 Je Suis Enchantee. Even we are amazed at the audacity of this touting!

#3 Takeover Target has the bona fides as your chalk in Saratoga 8. Likewise #2 Rachel’s Valentina in the ninth.

#4 J. C. Indy is a potent surprise package in Suffolk 7. #4 Worth the Worry is a short-priced overlay in Race 8. That’s Suffolk Downs. Make a note of it.

#6 Jac’s Fact looks best in Thistle 7.

Even-money on your morning line is probably accurate for #4 Riker in Woodbine 8.

Yesterday’s Activity: Serena Williamsz too good again. Madison Keysz will prove a much sterner test in the next round.
