Friday selections Race 2 # 2 Burnin Turf finished out of the money and Race 8 #1 Harper;s Gallop was SCRATCHED out of the race.
RACE 5 — # 2 SLAM DIEGO (2-1) ran 2nd in her first race in 11 months at this level going 6 furlongs on August 1st. Now stretches out to a mile for trainer Dean Peterson who is 40 % going from a sprint to a route. Has won twice at Del Mar and figures to be in the CAT BIRD SEAT turning for home against a very shaky group. # 6 ASIAN MATRIARCH is the main danger here dropping off a win…
BET: WIN/SHOW FLAT BET #2 — Exacta Box # 2/6 — Use both in Pick 3-4-5 Daily Double #2-#9
RACE 6 — # 9 ISLAND CRUISER (9-2) wanted no part going two turns in the Oceanside Stakes, now drops down to a 50 k claimer and cuts back to 5 furlongs and will get back on LASIX. The two races without LASIX he was a different animal. Now is reunited win his 2 time win jockey Hector Berrios. The 100 k OC that he won two races back DESTROYS this field. Three solid works since opening day has this horse primed. The CRUISER is 4 for 4 in the money sprinting on the turf… BEST BET
BET: WIN/PLACE FLAT BET # 9 — SINGLE PICK 3-4-5 — Exacta Box # 9-2
RACE 10 — # 7 GLORIOUS LIFE (2-1) almost went wire to wire in his first start in 9 months. With a race that came up light on speed, it looks like “TURF RESPOLI” will be very tough to catch in this race. Carla Gaines is 21% 2nd off a layoff over 180 days. Two 48.2 works since raced seven days apart and is now racing 7 days after last work. I really like that spacing coming from a cagey trainer.
