Wednesday, Jan. 5th
1st – Roaring River (2) trailed to the far turn after breaking in the air, then outfinished Savy Layla (3) who had a front running trip and was satisfied to go with the -9 EP.
KOC has four distinct ITM angles and Broadway Pete (4) has won going 5.5F. Could be ready or may need one.
DDs 2,4/6
2nd – It isn’t very often that a horse could be beaten by 10 and still have finished above today’s par, but Maclean’s Bella (6) went +4,+1 in last. Axmaker can bomb with lightly raced types and Shortenups, but I think the crowd will be on to this one on the Dropdown.
Win 6 and Exacta 6/1,3
3rd – Morici’s piece is 2-2 ITM over FAST dirt, she’s 63% ITM here with this angle and First Gold (1) is the only one to make par recently. PP1 continues to outperform in dirt sprints with a current IV of 1.54 at the meeting.
Win 1
4th – The class gap in fractional times among rock bottom maidens going 8.5F is 12 clicks (versus MC25s) while at 7F it is more linear at only five clicks. Thawed (8) went + 9 early in last, creating a chaos race where they were spread out by 11 lengths when they reached the stretch and the two leaders looked like they were having severe asthma attacks by the time they reached the 1/16th pole. I’m honestly surprised that Schistl would bring back Thawed in just seven days after that effort, but he is 13 (5-3-2) in dirt sprints while I’m 0 (0-0-0).
According to Horsestreet, Fancysoul (2) made above par EPs in all her 8.5F starts except for the last one before shipping (how convenient).
Pass the Salsa (5) was saved in last after seeing the writing on the wall. She was sub-par in previous, but doesn’t have to beat much.
Exacta Key Box 2/3,5
5th – Spanabel on a FTT can’t get my support (yet). Josefa (5) was beaten by at least three N3Ls in last. Luna Queen (8) has never been close to par on the grass.
Trifecta Box 1,3,6,9 (24 bets)
6th – I’m not one to rant, but now and then it’s appropriate. Bowersock is 46 & 62 since Allen Jr. has been put on the shelf. When he was her regular rider, they were 7.8% Win and 27% ITM at the same point at the past five meetings. Now, his personal struggles are no secret, but I always assumed that when he was in the irons, he was giving 100%. It’s beginning to look like we were all taken for an (Indy) ride, so to speak.
McGoey wakeup is in full swing. She is 3 of last 4 ITM. Her piece improved sharply in 2nd try and has the PP1 advantage today and Monica outperforms with her three angles here.
Nick the Cardshark came rightback to win on New Year’s Day for $6250, giving Highland Park Hero (2), a horse that likes Tampa, a bit of a bump.
When observing an entry for Susan Arnett (see R4 on Friday), a quick Google search revealed a story by our own Mike Henry wherein he interviews the Arnett’s about their move to Tampa. What stayed with me was Jon talking about how he won’t enter them off the claim unless they are in “tip top” shape. Well, if we saw Firehorn’s (8) best on 12/18 then Delgado should be beaten today. Now that I read this story, I’m gonna be putting all of Arnett’s claims through that scrutiny. We’ll see what happens…
Exacta Key Box 1/2,3
Pick 4 – 1,2,3/9/3,4,5,6/1,4,9 (36 bets)
Pick 4 – 1/1-7/4,5/1,4,9 (42 bets)
7th – If you stay at it long enough, you just might gain some credibility. I’m in year 16 of my (official) journey and still nearly as obscure as the day I started. Such is not the case however for Waz, Dini 2.0 and Ocala’s very own Johnny Collins, three men who have greatly improved their standing in our game in the last few years. Stuie (9) was par in last two and has a clean record.
Win 9
8th – Ferrer is Ward’s rider in Tampa, so switch to Dr. No and Ferrer sticking on Russo’s piece has gotten my attention. Fan Fan (5) surprised in last two and very well may surprise again today.
Exacta Key Box 5/3,4,6
9th – Andry Blanco was 50% ITM lifetime as an Owner, then decided to cut out the middle-man and got his Trainer’s License last year, and is, get this, 40 (7-8-5) already. Bartender, I’ll have what he’s having!
Ochoa is 33 & 67 with FBKs (15 tries) and 10 & 33 with Stretchouts. He has bombed consistently with Plain Distance Change types for several years now too.
$100 Weighted Exacta Box 1,4,9

we have races written strictly for just turned 3YO's, most
still looking for their niche ...could be a massacre of sorts
..............good luck in here ...
