Friday, August 1st


Make sure you get to the track by 4 pm, why you ask, because our first investment is then and we like it a lot after that !!!

RACE 1 # 4 NO OTHER LIKE YOU (4-1) Comes into Del Mar with speed from Gulfstream Park, going a mile in a race with NO SPEED. She broke her maiden going wire to wire in 1:34:4 at this distance. Trainer J.K. Sweezey is 67% winners with this move so far this meet. She had a work over the track 5 days ago, and in a race with no pace with the rails out to 24 feet in a short field. SHE COULD BE GONE @ 4-1…

THE BET: # 4 WIN / SHOW FLAT BET and use in PICK 3 and Pick 5’s and SHOW PARLAY and a DAILY DOUBLE using # 4 in the first to # 2 ONE STEP BEYOND (DD 4-2)


RACE 2 # 2 ONE STEP BEYOND (5-2) Blinkers go on after missing by a head at 30 k, now drops to 20 k for a money run. Doesn’t face any world beaters here and the blinkers going on means that trainer Freeman wants him closer to the lead and is the best closer in the field. This gelding is sitting on a win.

THE BET: # 2 WIN / PLACE FLAT BET and SINGLE in Pick 3 and Pick 5’s. SHOW PARLAY

RACE 4 # 1 HOWIN (5-2) Drops into a 40 OC race after running 2nd and 3rd in her last two races that happen to be GRADE 3 races. Baffert has put in 4 solid works into colt, and she is head and shoulders and way above this field in CLASS and SPEED. She also gets LASIX for the first time. Trainer 37% winners with 1st time lasix. The 5/2 morning line looks more like 7/5 at the post. But it is just another SINGLE in the early PICK 5!!!

THE BET: # 1 WIN FLAT BET and SINGLE in Pick and Pick 5’s and WIN PARLAY


RACE 7 # 4 BIG BILL (7-2) Comes into the race as a first time gelding, finished 2nd of 12 first time out sprinting on the turf. Was very keen and rank in his last race and was uncomfortable the whole race. Now stretches out to a mile for trainer Mark Glatt, and the word has it is the BIG BOY has figured everything out and has his mind on racing going back to Cal-bred maidens, instead of open company. 3 works since being gelded has him on point.

THE BET: # 4 WIN / SHOW FLAT BET and SINGLE in Pick 3 and Pick 5’s. SHOW PARLAY
