Balmoral: Saturday 10/31 Analysis
By Jeremey Day

DRF HARNESS

Race 9 - $20,000 Guaranteed Pick Four Pool

Best Bet (47 - 74 / $164.60): JOYFUL GAME (10th)

Spot Play: DINKY DUNE (6th)


Race 1

(1) RUSSELL L has been knocking on the door at this level; threat. (2) NANCYS SKYSCAPE was an easy winner last out saving ground up the inside. (10) MAKE IT WORK also scored last out in this class but will have his work cut out from the far outside; driver's choice.

Race 2

(8) SPIRIT IN THE SKY gets sent out for a low percentage pilot but the 4-year-old looks to have some ability. (5) FOX VALLEYRICHROKR lightly raced pacer has room to improve off a solid effort. (6) MAJOR LEGACY well bred 2-year-old could be the sleeper in the race making his first lifetime start.

Race 3

(8) FOX VALLEY PIPA mare just needs to be close turning for home; big chance. (2) LITTLE WARRIORETTE mare has had a lot of time between starts but owns a decent burst of speed. (9) SPARKIN YOUR FIRE was the driver's choice but lacked late pop last out; command a price.

Race 4

(7) CELEBRITY HERCULES trotter owns tons of back class and should find this spot much softer; versatile. (4) ROMPAWAY BEAU could be in line for a nice trip up close; threat. (1) JAYPORT PRINCESS looks terrible on paper but can pop at a price any start.

Race 5

(9) TERRORIZE THE MOON gelding has had some tough racing luck in his last three. The pacer should offer a nice price and can hit the ticket with a good setup. (5) HARPER VALLEY BOY was the top driver's choice of four. (7) VALIENTE STRIDE well bred three-year-old takes a big drop in competition; threat.

Race 6

(7) DINKY DUNE nice looking pacer needed his last start and should be sharper; fires early. (4) DIXIE'S BOY is very inconsistent from week to week but a good effort puts him in the mix; fires late. (3) EARNDAWG last year's two-year-old champ needs a bounce back mile after some dull efforts.

Race 7

(6) RED HOT ART was tremendous off a six month layoff closing with a monster late kick last week. If the pacer minds his manners he can make it two straight. (5) MIGHTY HOT SHOT is more than capable with a smooth trip at this level. (7) PILLAGE AND BURN was parked most of the mile last week. The pacer has been very competitive at this level.

Race 8

(5) CAM B ZIPPER could offer value in an evenly matched race getting sent out for capable connections. (4) TIME TO ROLL impeccably bred stallion gets a low percentage pilot but is probably the fastest in the race by far when right. (7) SOUTHWIND SCORPION four-year-old is in career form coming off his biggest lifetime win.

Race 9

In a very tough race to gauge, (9) SUNSET DREAMER will offer a better price this time out and can sweep past late with a fast pace to close into. (4) DELIGHT FASHION should probably be considered the horse to beat in a slightly softer spot. (2) JACKSON BERLOW has been competitive against better on the year; threat.

Race 10

(4) JOYFUL GAME pacing mare is very fast and should be primed for a better effort third start back. (9) MUY CALIENTE takes a huge drop in competition but needs to prove she can race on the big track. (8) LOVERS HOLIDAY couldn't win against the worst group of horses the last few years, however the pacer has been sharp in a new barn; threat.

Race 11

(3) BIG BRAD former 2-year-old track record holder hasn't been this far down in class in quite some time. (10) SMOKE RINGS will offer a nice big price and just missed against better three back. (7) OFFICIALLY OURS has a lot of ability but is inconsistent from week to week.

Race 12

(6) MAJOR MALE has been very competitive at this level despite only one victory on the year. (5) HOLY MCMOSES pacer is two for his last 88 starts; use underneath. (8) BET ON HIM is always a threat at this level but could need a start coming off a scratch.

SPOT PLAYS: 3 - 15 / 30.30

Best Bet: IL SOGNO DREAM (7th)

Spot Play: WHITE BECOMES HER (5th)


Race 1

(3) LOVELY ERIN was asked for nothing and delivered the same last time from an outer post. She should be sent here with Filion taking over and it appears the early lead is hers for the taking; top call. (2) SOUTHWIND GEISHA has delivered two upset wins in her past three starts and is a top contender here although her price will be much lower. (4) GRACIES PARADE's big rally fell just short last time. She should be closing again here but will not likely get the benefit of a slowing late pace.

Race 2

(6) VITAL SIGN has really come to life with Lasix added and should get a nice setup for his late rally with so many leavers signed on. (8) IDOLE DUHARAS made his first start in the Menary barn a winning one and is a top contender right back in the same class. (4) VICTOR BAYAMA climbs one class off a big win and can contend here, too, but will likely need to overcome a tougher trip to score.

Race 3

(6) GRANA PADANNO went a big trip and fell just short last time. He has a strong record in this class and will be tough here. (7) MYSTERY BET has faced much better recently and will be a strong contender if he stays flat although the gait issues that resurfaced last week are concerning. (2) JUANITAS FURY took a big class drop and won from the 10-hole at a surprisingly big price. She could repeat here if she can work out a similar trip.

Race 4

(4) CAJON LIGHTNING went a strong trip last time and was only picked off late. He could be better coming off a helmet and may be raced differently here but he is a top contender regardless. (6) TOTALLY DREAMY is a dangerous foe from either on the lead or in the pocket but won't be 48/1 like he was last time. (1) TEAM CAPTAIN is good enough to beat these and O' Sullivan could have him cranked up enough to get the job done; using.

Race 5

(7) WHITE BECOMES HER, notorious for getting nailed late in her miles, gets Lasix here which very well could do the trick; on top. (4) MR LOVER has developed an exciting late burst of speed but broke last time. If flat he'll be a top contender here. (1) MUSCLE MATTERS has a similar style to the choice - his stablemate - and it will be interesting to see how that plays out.

Race 6

(2) HIS BOY ELROY may get the best trip in a field filled with legitimate contenders; slight nod. (6) THUNDER STEELER drops slightly here and should be prominent throughout. (7) MR CARROTS has been racing well for a couple of months now and should get a good stalking trip here. He's another to use in the Pick 4.

Race 7

You have to think that (7) IL SOGNO DREAM has a lot more to offer than what he showed Monday night here. Back in 5 days he should get a much more aggressive steer. (5) BAGS FOR ALL finished just ahead of the choice but did no work of her own throughout. With 17 exacta finishes in 32 starts this year, she's a top contender, however. (3) WINDSUN REVENGE has been solid since returning from a break and should share here again.

Race 8

(1) PRESCOTTS HOPE got a clean line last week and should be all systems go for a big try here; on top. (2) THORN IN YOUR SIDE has been in excellent form all month and should be right there. (8) ARQUE HANOVER closed furiously last time to fall just short and is a threat for the win if he could get closer turning home.

Race 9

(2) SPORTSMANSHIP and (7) VEGAS ROCKS both catch a break with my top choice C L ART MAGIC being scratched. Both exit a highly-rated dash and can get there with the right trip.

Race 10

(3) ELLIS PARK went a big mile off a 20-day break last week and should be even better here and a square price. (5) MELMERBY BEACH drops out of the Breeders Crown Open Pace and will try to take these coast-to-coast. (6) ARTHUR BLUE CHIP also contested the Breeders Crown and is a much better fit here, obviously.

Race 11

(3) PRINCE CLYDE drops back into a class he dominated on September 5th and should be tough here. (6) HUNCH MAN took a massive shuffle last time but was closing well again late. He's a contender here. (2) CRAFTY MASTER continues to get closer since returning from a break and could break through here. (4) VELOCITY DRIVEN is a good one to use in the lower rungs of vertical wagers. (1) LIVE AND LEARN closed a big gap late and should be closer early here from a better post. This trainer is known for bringing in bombs; beware.

Yonkers: Saturday 10/31 Analysis
By Matt Rose

DRF HARNESS

MEET STATS: 335 - 1024 / $1,847.10 BEST BETS: 49 - 82 / $168.40

Best Bet: FIERY LUSTRE N (3rd)

Spot Play: SWISHNFLICK (11th)


Race 1

(1) LIFE UP FRONT gets much-needed post relief tonight and I would expect an aggressive try from this spot. (4) SIGN TO INVERELL A was a good second last out to a horse that came back to win again; these Bamond imports have for the most part been very live. (6) GALACTIC GALLEON N had pace in traffic last week; consider using him at a price.

Race 2

(5) I'M FABULOUS had no chance of reaching last week from post eight; veteran mare hasn't been all that bad recently and she fits well with these; at a price. (6) MONROE COUNTY grinded it out last week at 2/5 and can certainly repeat. (4) BOUND FOR FAME drops in class off a decent effort and is a major player here.

Race 3

(3) FIERY LUSTRE N drops in class off a good effort last week where he lost a bit of momentum on the final turn; Bamond trainee looks like a strong play. (1) STATESMAN N was a winner here two back, draws best and should hit the ticket. (4) FORT KNOX hasn't had much of an excuse in his last three; proceed with caution.

Race 4

(1) HEEZ ORL BLACK N drops back to the level where he dominated at odds-on a couple of months back and he draws best to boot; Vallee's veteran is clearly the one to deny. (4) NATIONAL DEBT was forced uncovered and never seriously threatened last week; he's better than that and Dube's back driving. (8) ELRAMA N was a winner in his U.S. debut just five days ago but he's stuck in post eight.

Race 5

(7) LORENZO DREAM has plenty of early speed which should make him a player here and the price should be decent. (1) EXTRACURRICULAR has been much better since joining the Allard barn. (4) ZOEY DE VIE gets a touch of post relief and could be more involved.

Race 6

(3) LUCAN HANOVER has never been one of my favorites but he's been very sharp on the front end in three of his last four and he should be forwardly placed again from this spot. (4) BIG N BAD has been right there at the wire in his last four Open tries. (8) TAKE IT BACK TERRY has been razor-sharp in all recent but he has to overcome the eight hole yet again; will there be a tuck waiting for him this week?

Race 7

(7) DW'S NY YANK returns for Burke with plenty of class and experience over this oval; he should be moving ahead of (8) MELADY'S MONET, then can yield, stalk and go by late. The latter has been hard to fault all year (and pretty much all career) but he's been off three weeks and needs to maintain his sharpness edge. (5) CRAZY ABOUT PAT is better than last week's flat effort.

Race 8

(1) LORD OF MISRULE somehow ends up with the rail after beating these last week at odds-on; he's clearly capable of repeating. (8) SOMEWHERE IN L A pulled pocket and looked like he would be an easy winner last out but he bolted and broke; use caution wagering on him from the eight hole, however. (2) IDEAL WILLIE has closed well in all recent and he'll look to shake free late.

Race 9

(1) E Z NOAH gets a free ride off a sharp wire-to-wire score last week and he draws best again. (4) HOLLYWOOD SIGN A came up with a very sharp effort last out after missing some time and seems capable of handling the jump in class. (3) JOURNEYMAN was a good second to the top choice last out.

Race 10

(2) TWIN B IMPRESSIVE faltered on the front end after moving early last out and taking on pressure; he's better suited stalking. (4) ONE THROUGH TEN never seems to win but his speed always puts him in play. (1) WILLIE BOOTS has been overachieving lately and he draws best.

Race 11

(2) SWISHNFLICK was overloaded with late trot last out and she seems ready to pop. (5) E R ELLIE broke last week in the Open, prior to that she was second best versus these. (8) PICTURE THIS will have it tough from this spot but he raced well last week and could get into the number at a huge price.

Race 12

(1) VALIDUS DEO always races well from inside posts and perhaps Bartlett can trip out with him. (6) SOHO HIGHROLLER A makes his North American debut for Allard off two sharp qualifiers; watch out. (2) PASS THEM BY N is up in class looking for two straight.

5 things we know entering World Series Game 4
By Larry Fleisher, The Sports Xchange

Here are five things we know about the World Series heading into Game 4 on Saturday in New York:
--The captain's bat might have returned for the Mets. Third baseman David Wright's second foray into postseason play had not gone well until Friday when he hit a two-run homer and drove in four runs. He had three RBIs in the postseason before Friday and seven hits in 41 at-bats. Wright seemed aggressive in his at-bats, driving a 0-1 fastball from right-hander Yordano Ventura into the left-center field seats with nobody out in the first. In the sixth, with the Mets already up 6-3, Wright stroked a first-pitch fastball from right-hander Kelvin Herrera. Wright's performance were the most RBIs by a Met in a World Series game since Rusty Staub in Game Four in 1973 against Oakland.
-- The Mets may have the advantage on the bench. With the series shifting to New York and the pitcher having to bat, the benches figured to be more prominent. The Mets had Juan Uribe on their bench in a key spot and he continued his knack for big World Series hits by getting an RBI single during New York's four-run sixth inning. Uribe batted .219 during the regular season after being acquired from Atlanta on July 24, but his reputation got him a standing ovation from the fans before lining a 2-2 pitch into right field. The Royals could have used regular DH Kendrys Morales to bat in the pitcher's spot when it came up in the fifth, but manager Ned Yost opted to keep him on the bench when it was a two-run game. He likely did it because that spot was leading off and he wanted to have Morales up with runners on. Instead, Yost went to infielder Raul Mondesi Jr, who struck out swinging.
-- Two games to one is significantly better than three games to none: This is the 54th time a team has won the first two games in the World Series. In the previous 53 instances, the team winning the first two games has won the series 42 times. Twenty-four of those teams have won Game 3, and unlike the ALCS, no team has ever blown a 3-0 lead. Should the Mets manage to get it to 2-2 and win the fifth game, their chances may increase for winning the series. In 44 instances, the series has been tied after four games and 26 times the home team has won the fifth game in that situation.
-- Youth will either help or hinder the Mets' chances of evening the series. The Mets have had uneven performances from their youthful rotation in the series and will turn to another youngster in left-hander Steven Matz on Saturday. Matz made six regular-season starts and the Long Island native started the NLCS clincher in Chicago when he allowed a run and four hits in 4 2/3 innings. Like Noah Syndergaard in Game 3, Matz will have to pitch without getting phased by adversity. Syndergaard gave the Mets six innings and ended his outing by getting a groundout with the bases loaded when it was a two-run game. He also will have to make adjustments if the Royals are able to hit fastballs like they did in the early innings Friday.
-- How much will Chris Young have? It is a valid question for the Royals after Young threw 53 pitches in three innings in Game 1. Young hit 90 mph on a few of his pitches but will be starting on three days' rest, which might put the Royals at a pitching disadvantage. A short outing could also hinder the Royals because right-hander Yordano Ventura lasted 3 1/3 innings on Friday and manager Ned Yost used six relievers.

Mets showing confidence in rookie starter Matz
By Jerry Beach, The Sports Xchange

NEW YORK -- All New York Mets rookie right-hander Noah Syndergaard did during Game 3 of the World Series Friday night was take the mound to the theme from the movie "Halloween," scare the bejeezus out of the Kansas City Royals by throwing his first pitch over the head of shortstop Alcides Escobar and then survive a rough first couple innings to throw six sturdy innings and earn the win in a 9-3 victory that put the Mets back into the Series.
So what can Steven Matz do for an encore as he makes his World Series debut pitching for the team he grew up rooting for and performing an hour from home in front of what he described as "a huge amount of family members?"
The left-handed Matz, the Mets' other rookie starter, will take the mound Saturday as the Mets try to even the Series at two games apiece. He'll do so having slept in his own bed in East Setauket, which is located about 55 miles east of Citi Field.
"We're on off hours, so there's not much traffic," Matz said Friday afternoon. "It's not too terrible. It's been pretty awesome to be able to do that."
So, too, is pitching for the Mets in the playoffs. The start Saturday will be the third of the postseason for Matz, who made just six regular-season starts due to lat and back injuries.
"I always thought about (pitching for the Mets)," Matz said. "I didn't know it was actually going to come to truth or whatever. It's actually amazing. It's (a) pretty big blessing being here, especially my first year being a part of this team."
While it may be unfair to expect a Syndergaard-like performance out of Matz, the Mets are confident in his ability to provide a strong outing. The Mets started Matz in Game 4 of the National League Division Series on Oct. 13 even though he had not pitched in the majors since Sept. 24 due to his back injury. He also pitched Game 4 of the NL Championship Series against the Chicago Cubs and has a 3.72 ERA in his two outings.
"(Syndergaard) came through exactly how we expected him to," Mets manager Terry Collins said Friday night. "And we really believe Steven Matz will go out (tonight) and do the same job.

Royals look to remain perfect in Game 4s
By Jerry Beach, The Sports Xchange

NEW YORK -- The Kansas City Royals finished the 2015 postseason 0-for-3 in Game 3s. But manager Ned Yost is confident the Royals will remain perfect in Game 4s on Saturday.
The Royals' hopes of sweeping the World Series vanished Friday night, when the New York Mets cruised to a 9-3 win in Game 3 at Citi Field. Kansas City ended up being outscored 24-13 in losing Game 3s to the Houston Astros (American League Division Series), Toronto Blue Jays (AL Championship Series) and the Mets.
But the Royals came back in their first two Game 4s to beat the Astros and Blue Jays by a combined margin of 23-8. On Saturday, Kansas City will send to the mound right-hander Chris Young, who earned the win in Game 1 on Tuesday by tossing three hitless innings in the 5-4, 14-inning victory.
"We've got a lot of confidence in our group," Yost said. "We've got Chris Young going tomorrow and we feel good about that. He's the ultimate competitor. Nothing is going to mess with him -- the weather, nothing is going to faze him.
"He's going to go out and execute pitches and keep us in the ballgame until we get to our pen."
A short start Friday by right-hander Yordano Ventura (3 1/3 innings) meant the Royals bullpen got plenty of usage. But Yost only used two of his late-inning relievers: Right-handers Kelvin Herrera and Ryan Madson combined to allow two hits in 1 2/3 innings.
In addition, right-hander Kris Medlen, the long man, threw one inning Friday and would be available if Young, who only lasted 4 2/3 innings in Game 4 of the ALCS, makes an early exit.
"Our pen is in great shape," Yost said. "We're swinging the bats good. So we're all really confident.

Preview: Royals (95-67) at Mets (90-72)

Game: 4
Venue: Citi Field
Date: October 31, 2015 8:07 PM EDT

Unexpectedly pressed into duty, Chris Young delivered a Game 1 victory for the Kansas City Royals. Getting another Saturday night would put them on the brink of their first World Series title in 30 years.

Young tries to again stymie the New York Mets, who hope to build on an impressive offensive performance and even the series at two games apiece.

Tied at four after 11 innings Tuesday, Kansas City turned to Young after trotting out five relievers. The veteran right-hander responded by tossing three hitless innings with four strikeouts before Eric Hosmer lifted a sacrifice fly that scored Alcides Escobar for a 5-4 victory.

Despite throwing 53 pitches, the 36-year-old Young isn't concerned about taking the mound on three days' rest. He's 1-1 with a 1.59 ERA in three starts in that scenario this year.

"I came in (Thursday) and got my normal routine in and just treating it as a normal start," Young said. "Like I've said, 'I'm here to do whatever the team needs, whether that's relieve or start.' And my body feels fine, physically, I'm not worried about bouncing back and excited to be out there."

Manager Ned Yost insists Young isn't under a pitch count.

"We do like we do with all of our starters, we'll continue to evaluate every inning how he's throwing the ball and how he's feeling, but there's no limitation," he said.

Yost surely prefers to avoid going to the bullpen early after using six relievers over 5 2-3 innings in Friday's 9-3 loss at Citi Field.

"They did a good job of capitalizing on all our mistakes," Hosmer said. "Hopefully, we got them all out of the way."

The Mets are encouraged by one of their best offensive showings of the postseason. They got 12 hits from nine players, including homers from Curtis Granderson and David Wright, who awoke from his playoff slumber by going 2 for 5 with four RBIs.

"We get our offense going a little bit, we play better baseball," manager Terry Collins said.

Wright was 2 for 11 through the first two games of the World Series and had a .171 average with three RBIs in 11 playoff games before belting a two-run shot in the first inning of Game 3.

"Recently the hitting coach and I have been working on some mechanical things, some timing things," Wright said. "Just being a little bit more on time and being ready for the fastball."

Wright, though, is 1 for 10 against Young, who has held the current Mets roster to a .136 average with 14 strikeouts.

Young is 0-4 with a 3.61 ERA in nine career starts at Citi Field, but they all came with New York from 2011-12.

The Mets give the ball to Steven Matz, who becomes the first New Yorker to start a World Series game for the Mets. The rookie left-hander grew up a Mets fan in Stony Brook, roughly an hour away from Queens.

"This is where you want to be in baseball.," Matz said. "This is the dream. This is what you write up in your backyard when you're playing Wiffle ball.

"I didn't know it was actually going to come to truth or whatever. It's actually amazing. It's pretty big blessing being here, especially my first year being a part of this team."

Matz helped the Mets reach the World Series in his last outing. He yielded one run and four hits with four strikeouts in 4 2-3 innings as New York completed an NLCS sweep with an 8-3 win at Chicago.

He'll try build on Noah Syndergaard's outing from Friday and slow down Escobar, Kansas City's leadoff hitter who is batting .356 in the postseason. The shortstop went 1 for 4 with two strikeouts in Game 3 and has hit safely in 13 straight playoff games.

Syndergaard's first pitch of the game was a 97 mph fastball over the head of Escobar, who evaded it and ended up on the ground.

Since Syndergaard made it public that he had a plan to deal with Escobar, the Royals responded by jawing at him from the dugout for several innings.

"It was the only location he missed all night," Hosmer said. "No one in here is stupid. We know what he said."

Saturday's six-pack

-- Mets 9, Royals 3-- Home team is 3-0 so far in World Series.

-- Thunder 139, Magic 136 2OT-- This was a great game; there were three made 3's in last 0:14 of regulation.

-- Purdue's ace basketball recruit, Caleb Swanigan, is now eligible; he was adopted five years ago by a guy who is an agent, which caused a delay.

-- Texas Longhorns are signing a 15-year, $250M deal with Nike.

-- Dolphins lost DL Cameron Wake (achilles) for the year; big loss.

-- RIP Mel Daniels, one of the great players in ABA history. Indiana Pacers were a power in the ABA; Daniels was a great power forward.

trying to post the same plays that I posted yesterday, which were all winners, but they are not going through. I have no idea what is going on. I'll go to another site
