Wednesday, 14 May

It's a sloppy, sloppy day. Races are off the turf. http://www.drf.com/drfDownloadPastPerformance.do?TRK=CD&CY=USA&DATE=14&RACE=99

Skip race 1.
Race 2 Go Go Diablo-Likes the slop. His mudda was a Mudder. The only reason I don't pick the 2 is because he shows no activity in 3 weeks.
Race 3. This was supposed to be on the turf but they are off, so 5 furlongs in the slop. The number 2 has been off since january with a light worktab. There could be more behind the scenes but the trainer does not have a good record with these types. The 1 likes the track and distance and showed an affinity for the slop but again shows no works in 3 weeks. This angle might be something I need to factor in in the future if a lot of these types start winning but I prefer to see a horse that is working reccently no matter how slowly. My pick is the 7, while never having raced in the slop, his last work iwas in the mud in respectable time and Amoss is on fire.
Race 4 I have no idea. Between the 1-4-6.
Race 5 If the 4 goes off at 3-1 or better he is a solid play. I might make a trip to the OTB if he is hovering around there.
Race6 The 4 Stanton.
Race 7 No good feeling but I'll go with the 1.
Race 8 First level allowance with no horses showing any form on dirt. This was supposed to be on the turf. Pass the race.
Race 9 Close between 2-3-6. I give the nod to the 2.
That's it race fans.
Results tonight...I know you'll be watching.

Hey, where are these races? Arlington? Churchill? BTW, the link to the DRF's you posted requires a password so unless we have an account at the site, we can't get the DRF.
GOOD LUCK!
