Oaklawn 1-14-2018
Track had a little faster variant yesterday than the day before. Expect the same today.
race #1 - 8f
#1 3-1 PATTI PATTI PATTI - logical
#3 6-1 SINGING ALLI - 2nd start by Giant Oak so improvement likely
#7 5-1 SOPHIE'S ANGEL
race #2 - 6f
... very wide open race. Live bombs all over the board. All playable over 30-1.
#7 12-1 SARAH'S SWINGTOWN - not sitting on my hands if this guy goes off over 20-1, chances lessen the lower the price. Setup 47-1 last year.
#12 3-1 ARCH REVENGE - most logical but I need to play prices in here
#5 8-1 PRIMARILY GOLD - threat if ready, Cates/McMahon scored with first-timer SPOTITUDE (29-1) on Friday.
#4 12-1 GONE PREACHIN - router will need to be tractable
race #3 - 8f
#4 9-2 LA DAME BLANCHE
#7 8-5 MIA D'ORO
race #4 - 8f
... this race has me scratching my head
#7 8-1 ZELLA ROSE - strange Broberg re-acquisition
#6 6-1 RITZY LASS - if favorite isn't right then this girl could get an easy lead
#8 5-2 ELECTRIC COWGIRL - another strange barn transfers ... but landing in Mason barn is good thing
#2 2-1 BAETYKATY - Diodoro claimed for 25k and drops here for 12K, needs to win to break even, bad math .... possible but not for me
race #5 - 6f
... maiden claimer, take a good look at them ... quite a few with a shot.
#1A 3-1 QUIETLY CUBA
#10 15-1 VILONIA STRONG
#2 9-2 RICK'S STRYKER
race #6 - 6f
... top favs are logical .... so I'll play the illogical.
#10 10-1 INFINITY SQUARED - Diodoro clever claim off Sharp winning first out at 11-1 back in August as 2yo, on shelf since. If ready should see nice kick.
#5 7-2 FIGHT ON
#6 5-2 NUCLEAR OPTION
#7 4-1 FLAT LUCKY
race #7 - 8f
#6 9-2 WARRIOR'S CLUB
#7 5-2 LEOFRIC
#2 20-1 BROKEN PROMISE - bomb alert
#3 2-1 UNCONTESTED - has never won on fast dirt going long .... so why take a short price?
race #8 - 6f
#1 2-1 IVAN FALLUNOVALOT
#10 10-1 COUNTERFORCE
#5 30-1 BOURBON COWBOY - exotic booster
race #9 - 6f
#2 12-1 PRINCESSOF THE NYL
#6 5-2 LADY WARRIOR
#1 8-1 MAKE DADDY PROUD
#11 5-1 SEA SHACK
FYI, definitions:
"pick to click" - most likely (aka best bet)
"bomb alert" - very possible, don't ignore if big price
"exotic booster" - use underneath only
Good luck to all!
