Standard Ticket: 50-cent play: 258/469/25/79=$18.00
Whale Ticket: 50-cent play: none
Analysis:
Race 7: Pretty tough race to start off the Pick-4. (8) Broadway Donna seems best and is my top pick but I’m also using (5) All The Time and (2) Celebrity Eventsy.
Race 8: This is a wide open pace. Mcardles Lightning is the obvious favorite but does have post 9. I’m also using (4) Calvin B, who likes this track and comes off an improved effort. And (6) Starsky’s Dream N, another shipper that is dropping in class.
Race 9: (5) Dial Or Nodial is the 10-year-old with the class edge. I’m also using (2) Firstclassallthway who finished a head behind Dial Or Nodial last week.
Race 10: (7) True Blue Hall could be tough to catch here. I’m also going to try a potential live longshot, (9) Alexie Mattosie, who drops and likes this track.
