SATURDAY DEL MAR

RACE 1

A maiden special weight sprinting on the main track with the pace soft. Blazing Away looks to be the speed here. Righteous Renee needs a clean break after a horrible start last time out. Include Me Out has been off a long time but the trainer in the past sends them out ready to fire. Talamo rides this live maiden in a short field in this opener. Little Miss Mambo has solid drills and a win early pedigree that makes her a contender...... Wide open affair but Include Me Out the clockers are high on with her morning drills.     

              1. Include Me Out
              2. Blazing Away
              3. Righteous Renee

RACE 2


A entry level maiden allowance sprinting on the poly-track with little pace to run at. Hot Ride with Respuesta Solida looks to press the pace. After watching Stoney Fleece win in his debut he is a talented two year old that is on my watch list. The filly Nicos Memory won by ten. She warants respect with the guys. Take the speed horses here!

           1. Respuesta Solida
           2. Hot Ride
           3. Stoney Fleece





RACE 3

N2X class level optional claimer routing on the turf. This race came up light on speed. Madera Castana looks to press the pace. Talktoomuch should stalk behind this frontrunner. Berg Bahn gets the garden seat with a excellent turn of foot. Miss Mittagong will close late. A short field and anyone in this field can win this field as it is wide open.

             1. Talktoomuch
             2. Berg Bahn


RACE 4

Le'Heat and Bell Bitz is the speed in this paceless route going one mile for non winners of two. Exuma adds the blinkers and goes first off the claim for Linda Mikus. Regroup goes long after a disappointing time sprinting. I expect much better as he route better then he sprints. Hendrick's is due as David Flores rides. Money Included warrants respect but I cannot win with Knapp. Everytime I bet a horse trained by Knapp is finishes last.

          1. Regroup
          2. Exuma
          3. Bell Bitz



RACE 5

Sentimental Ballad a filly I pick to win her maiden did win. She faces winners for the first time. Full Fashion won yesterday and Ballad was well clear of her. No reason she cannot come back and win this race. Miss Respledere looks to be stalking the pace. She had to need her last start. I expect this time around she will be more into the bit. Lake Osceola needs a quick pace to run at. If she gets that pace she can upset this field. Town Belle aired last time out......she warrants respect despite the fact that she too is facing winners for the first time. Sean S a horse I won on....looks very playable...

         1. Sentimental Ballad
         2. Miss Respledere
         3. Lake Osceola

Longshot Sean S....has back class ....do not sell short!






RACE 6

The clockers love Sweet Swap....... never have seen a A grade for two year old colt except this Candy Ride colt. All systems go! My Best Brother by Carston City is bred for speed. Baffert has two first timers........ Castaway and Sky Kingdom who look live....... watch the tote for more clues.

            1. Sweet Swap
            2. My Best Brother
            3. Castaway/Sky Kingdom

Pick 3   2,9 with 1,3,11 with 1,7,9



RACE 7

Valkyrie Missile looks to be the horse to beat..... I had Cadillac Coach last time out. He goes from outside post to the rail... He needs to step up in this race.... I like him in my pick three. Dubber will set the pace.......can he wire this field at six and half... I expect the winners stalking Dubber and turning for home will be a mid pack closer. Prince Intent fits this bill with the other top picks here.

            1. Valkyrie
            2. Prince Intent
            3. Cadillac Coach



RACE 8

Great Race is the Del Mar Oaks........ a salty talented field with many pace scenarios and few pretenders.

            1.  Nereid...ultra talented daughter of Rock Hard Ten

            2.  Cambina....love her turn of foot awesome

            3.  Entrustment...the Rodney Dangerfield of horses

Summer Soiree.....let's see if she can go this distance.! If she can then I get beat.



 
RACE 10
 
Warren's Lady will be on the front end........ speed is deadly if left unchecked at this short of a distance..... has a shot to go gate to wire with Russell Baze on her. Beware of Jade's Song who has been freshened up fro this and gets the red hot Talamo to ride... check out her last work out. Evening Twight drops to collect for the money run. Miss Mystic exits a fast race wirth solid works..... She needs to clear from the rail but she looks scary.... Benecia has already won at Fairplex Park........she has been off since January but she looks prime to fire fresh here....Beware....good betting race
 
             1.  Benecia
             2.  Warren's Lady
             3.  Jade's Song
