DRF HARNESS
Race 8 - $10,000 Guaranteed Pick Four Pool
Jeremey’s $1 Pick Four Play:
2,7,9 / 3,5,9 / 2,3,6 / 5 = $27
Best Bet: BOOYAH TJ (7th)
Spot Play: RUST BELT (8th)
Race 1
(4) HANGIN JUDGE six-year-old trotter should be primed for a better effort making his third start back off a layoff. (5) NED PEPPER put in a decent qualifier last week but probably needs a start. (2) UP CHUCKIE well bred mare has just been racing evenly; use underneath.
Race 2
(2) MYSTICAL BAY owns a win at this level and could get an easy early lead. (3) TOYS LEGACY pacing mare is 0 for her career but has been knocking on the door at this level. (4) FLUKY'S GIRL should be closer turning for home this week at a big price.
Race 3
(9) SURE THING benefits from the top driver and owns some back class. (1) FREEDOM RIDGE takes a huge drop in class with a top driver, however the pacer has just been racing evenly and looks to offer low value. (8) CAROLINA JACOB needs a good setup to get carried into the race; use underneath.
Race 4
(1) DO IT DOC'S WAY veteran pacer has room to improve in his second start for new connections. (3) REDBUD raced well last week even needing the start; threat. (6) RICKY KAY is capable against this bunch with some racing luck.
Race 5
(3) VERDICT trotting gelding has been very consistent in most of his recent starts; threat. (1) CEANA'S STAR gets the best post and is fast enough to hit the ticket at a price with a good effort. (6) ERISTER HANOVER is a huge threat should the 4-year-old stay trotting.
Race 6
(2) MAC'S DEVIL burned cash last week at this level but is in very soft. (9) BET ON ART has been competitive against better on the year; threat. (1) WOW POWER gets the best post second start back off a layoff; use underneath.
Race 7
(8) BOOYAH TJ trotter will look to make it two straight wins off a layoff and just needs to mind his manners. (7) DARTMOUTH HALL has been facing much tougher but will need to find a way into the race. (4) ZORGWIJK HEAVENLY just needs to be closer turning for home down in class.
Race 8
(2) RUST BELT has just been racing evenly but finds a weak field full of question marks. (7) MORELAND FLASH was an easy winner down in class last week; threat. (9) PAPA GRANDE picks up the top driver and should be closer turning for home.
Race 9
(5) TSUNAMI DREAM owns multiple wins at this level; fires early. (9) QUANTUM CASHMAN well bred trotter finds a suspect bunch to do some damage. (3) ROJAN'S LAST SHOT five-year-old gelding has made breaks in three straight starts after an easy win from off the pace. If he stays trotting he might be the horse to beat.
Race 10
In one of the toughest races to gauge on the card, (2) FOX RIVER MARK gets a much better starting post and will offer a big price. (3) BLOOMING GENIUS pacer makes his first start for a new barn with the top pilot. (6) BOUND TO SCORE made the most money in the field last year and showed a good burst of speed last week.
Race 11
(5) DREAMY FELLA four-year-old stallion was finally done in last week by a tough post. His main rival won't make it easy on him early but if he gets the lead he will be tough to beat. (2) BUPA BRUISER has a bunch of positives including second time lasix; threat. (6) BOSSY AUSSIE owns a win at the track against weaker; use underneath.
Race 12
(9) CAMCRUISER HANOVER pacer makes his first start in the top barn; big chance. (1) SJ'S BLISSFUL GUY has been facing tougher at the Meadows and gets the best post. (3) STATUS QUO well bred pacer drops in class but doesn't have a good winning history; use underneath.
Race 13
In another tough race to handicap, (2) SUNBURED VERN is one of few in the race that shows a win at this level. (1) DANNYS MAN gets the best post and looks to be in line for a nice trip up close. (3) IMPRESSIVE JET has not won a race in close to two years; use underneath.
Race 14
(5) DUSTY DUNES drops in class and picks up the top driver. (1) EARLYMORNINARRIVAL rarely wins but can hit the ticket with the best post. (6) LIMA THUNDER is very inconsistent from week to week but a good effort puts him in the mix.
Race 15
(4) ELECTRIFY picks up a huge driver change down in class. (5) BOLD SECRET the top driver opted elsewhere but the pacer has shown a good burst when timed right. (8) LIGHT UP THE SKY will offer a big price taking a double drop in class; threat.
