Churchill 8<\/strong>. <\/p>\nShould be OK for the odds-on #7 Unified<\/strong> in Belmont 9<\/strong>. Ditto the slightly less obvious #9 Wake Forest<\/strong> in the 10th<\/strong> there.<\/p>\nLive third-choice on the morning line in Monmouth 10<\/strong>: #7 Delta Bluesman<\/strong>.<\/p>\nThe singles keep on coming, now in Santa Anita 3<\/strong>: #2 Arcature<\/strong>.<\/p>\nYesterday’s Activity<\/strong>: <\/p>\nTrack (Win Mutuels $20+\/Gettable)<\/strong><\/p>\nArlington (1\/0)<\/strong> — Host Cubs improve to 26-8 (.764 beisbol) with 9-4 win over Pirates; Chicago starter Jason Hammel moved to 5-0 on the season.<\/p>\nAssiniboia (1\/0)<\/strong> — Highway 59 closed at the north Perimeter Highway this weekend for demolition of the concrete loop there.<\/p>\nBelmont (1\/0)<\/strong> — Jankees fall at home to White Sox, 7-1; New York starter Luis Severino dropped to 0-6 (7.46 ERA).<\/p>\nChurchill (1\/1)<\/strong> — Race 1 winner Prado Dash would have been publicly touted, save for the sleepyheaded late-risers in the Back Room. Prado Dash was acceptable to all types of V6 players — Old-School Champeens, High-Octane Chancers, Progressive-Minded Eggheads — due to his status atop the conventional, contentious V6 Betting Line (Fair Odds of 3½-1) plus a fine 91 on the LifeLiner Spread Column analysis. Prado Dash pressed hard throughout en route to the 2¾-length win at $42.40. Good work.<\/p>\nEmerald (1\/0)<\/strong> — Mariners surrender 9th-inning lead at home to Anaheim, lose 7-6; Seattle closer Steve Cishek blew the save and was tagged with the loss.<\/p>\nEvangeline (2\/2)<\/strong> — High-Octane Chancers probably were in on debut issue Zendelphian, $32-even, in Race 3; the race did not seem contentious, but Zendelphian’s connection-line readout was a positive 14pc\/17pc\/31pc. Later, the more plausible overlay came via Production Manager in Race 7, $28.40; Production Manager had the good 89 on the LifeLiner Spread Column analysis in a contentious race. No, he did not come close to going coast-to-coast, but he ground out the win by a clean neck. What are you gonna do? Good work.<\/p>\nGolden Gate (1\/0)<\/strong> — Visiting Giants beat Arizona, 3-1; starter Jeff Samardzija went 8 strong innings in bettering his record to 5-2 on the season.<\/p>\nGulf (0\/0)<\/strong> — Host Heat force a Game 7 in the Big-League Hoopball Eastern Conference Semis, defeating Toronto, 103-91; Miami’s Goran Dragic led all scorers with 30 pts.<\/p>\nIndiana (2\/1)<\/strong> — Longest shot in the field in Race 6, Hurricane Pass, wins it for the High-Octane Chancers in a noncontentious race; ’Hurricane had the qualifying 83 on the LifeLiner Spread Column analysis and won by a clean neck at $31.60. Good work.<\/p>\nLos Alamitos (0\/0)<\/strong> — See Emerald commentary.<\/p>\nLouisiana (1\/0)<\/strong> — Water-main blowout prompts voluntary boil advisory in parts of Shreveport.<\/p>\nLone Star (1\/1)<\/strong> — Battlingsuzanna had a good-enough number (74, in a field devoid of any 80+-type numbers) on the LifeLiner Spread Column analysis, and she pretty much went gate-to-wire in a contentious race to win by a clean neck at $30-straight. Good work.<\/p>\nNorthlands (1\/1)<\/strong> — Lip Singer (complete LifeLiner array: 72-73-89) rallied like the champion he could have been, winning a contentious Race 8 at $20.30. Good work.<\/p>\nPennNat (0\/0)<\/strong> — Fightin’ Phils win at home over Cincinnati, 3-2; Jeanmar Gomez recorded his MLB-leading 14th save of the season.<\/p>\nPimlico (0\/0)<\/strong> — Host Orioles nip Detroit, 1-nil; Balto. starter Chris Tillman went 7 innings and moved his record to 5-1 on the season.<\/p>\nPrairie (2\/1)<\/strong> — Not a contentious Race 2, so High-Octane Chancers were the eligible ones to take a stab on You Should Be Here, $24.40; that horse had a field-best 90 on the LifeLiner Spread Column, and he led by open lengths for much of the race, winning by 8¾. Good work.<\/p>\nSanta Anita (0\/0)<\/strong> — Dodgers beat visiting St. Louis, 8-4; Yasiel Puig went 3-for-5 with a HR and 2 RBI in the win.<\/p>\nThistle (3\/1)<\/strong> — Venture Road took the opener by half a length at $34.80 up top. The race was not deemed contentious, but ’Venture had a satisfactory 85 on the LifeLiner Speed Column analysis anyway. Good work.<\/p>\nWoodbine (1\/0)<\/strong> — Visiting Blue Jays blank Texas, 5-nil; R.A. Dickey pitched 8 scoreless innings for the win.<\/p>\nWMF Report<\/strong>:<\/p>\nEarly<\/em>
