Today’s Stakes Pageantry: None today, but Game 2 of your 2016 World Series takes place this evening in Cleveland in Ohio.

Yesterday’s Activity:

Track (Win Mutuels $20+/Gettable)

Finger (2/1) — Race 6 was contentious, and Caleb’s a Survivor was acceptable to all — Old-School Champeens, High-Octane Chancers and Progressive-Minded Eggheads alike. ‘Caleb had Fair Odds of 6-1 and was a Dual Qualifier (88, 95) and went tail-to-wire to win by a clean neck at $26-even. Good work.

Indiana (2/1) — Low Tire in a contentious Race 2 was the same as the horse mentioned in the Finger commentary, but with Fair Odds of 5-1 and just the good-enough 82 on the LifeLiner Spread Column only; she went gate-to-wire to win by 1 at $21.60. Good work.

Mountain (1/1) — Race 6 was contentious, but only High-Octane Chancers and Progressive-Minded Eggheads had a shot with Dual Qualifier Night Patrol (80, 86); he was within range after the opening 2 furlongs and won by 4½ at $20-straight. Good work.

Keystone (3/1) — The opener was contentious and for Old-School Champeens, who had Fair Odds of 3½-1 on Sunshine Wild, who won by 6 at $39.60. Good work.

Portland (2/0) — Host Trail Blazers win season opener over Utah, 113-104; Damian Lillard had 39 pts. for Portland.

Zia (1/1) — The finale was contentious, but only High-Octane Chancers and Progressive-Minded Eggheads were in on What a Flag, whose 81 on the LifeLiner Speed Column analysis was just good enough; she rallied like the champion she should have been, winning by a clean head at $84-even. Good work.
