Del Mar review (July 23rd)
The six Polytrack sprints played fair (2 wire jobs), and the two flat mile turfers were taken by stalking types.
Hat trick for Alex Solis, and the resurgent Garrett Gomez booted home a pair.
Race 6: The riderless horse (No Ka Oi) wreaked havoc in this flat mile grass […]
Showers and storms lead to a sloppy, sealed main track and no turf on opening day at the Spa. Early/pressing types off the rail fared well, with a trio of wire jobs on the day. Alan Garcia and Cornelio Velasquez both booted home a pair, and kudos to Steve Asmussen saddling a trio of winners. […]
LA Downs week in review (July 17-20)
There were a few noteworthy jockey and trainer efforts last week at Louisiana Downs, and the horse performance of the week was a tough call as well…

Louisiana Downs review: Saturday (July 19th)
I pulled off an odd handicapping feat on Saturday @ LA Downs. I swept the card ten race card with my selections, but the only problem was seven of my 2nd choices won, and my 3rd choices nabbed the other three races. My tops garnered a trio of place finishes […]
Del Mar review (July 20th)
Day 5 of the Del Mar meet is in the books, and I had a very productive day selling the Sunday (July 20th) full card. Got four on-top winners, including 2 of my 3 bests bets home as well as the late Pick 4.
Polytrack continues to play fair. Five sprint […]
Day 4 of the Del Mar meet is in the books, and the Pick 6 was nailed despite a huge upset in the Osunitas Hcp by 43-1 outsider Zardana (Gryder/McAnally). Main track continues to play fair, with the route races favoring speed on Saturday, and patient runners doing best in sprints. Stalkers and off the […]
I am settling in nicely and am already four weeks into my Louisiana Downs Track Handicapper/TV Host gig. The main track is playing fair this week with early/pressing types holding the edge as usual. Turf course fair with the rails down.
