Best Bet: GERERDO (7th) Spot Play: HOLIDAY PARTY (9th) Race 1 - $50,000 Guaranteed Pick Five Pool Race 4 - $50,000 Guaranteed Pick Four Pool PICK 5: 5,7/1,3,4,6,8/6,7/1,2,7/1,8,9 = $36 EARLY PICK 4:  1,2,7/1,8,9/1,2,6,8,9/3 = $45 LATE PICK 4: 3/3,7,8/2,4,5,8/1,5,6,9 = $48 MEET STATS: 157 - 527 / $941.10   BEST BETS: 23 - 51 / $94.80 SPOT PLAYS: 18 - 51 / $167.00 Race 1 (5) TEN CARAT was on a roll until she stepped out of claimers for her last two starts. Back in for a tag, she can rebound here starting from a good post. (7) REYS IN A ROCKET made a big move to the front that she just couldn't sustain to the wire. The rival that beat her then starts farthest out here; using. (10) CHICKIE LOVE won and was claimed. She shoots for three straight here, but post 10 has been more daunting than usual at this meet so far. (1) DRY CREEK IMAGE has upset possibilities here as there is a decent chance that she can work out a better trip. Race 2 In a race where there is very little form, I'll stab with (6) KEN KAN WIN, who gets Henry for a return drive after showing mild interest last time. (4) SAFEKEEPING didn't show much in her first start for Moreau. Maybe he'll wake her up tonight. (1) SETANTA is worth a look based on the sharp late speed he displayed in his qualifier. (8) WILLYORWONTHE has the capability of blowing up the tote board if he leaves hard and gets position near the front at the start. Race 3 (7) E R RHONDA didn't fare that poorly last time, considering an early miscue left her out for the route. A better trip and result is likely here. (6) DOCS SAUSALITO - placed ahead of the choice for interference last time - is the main danger here racing first off the claim. (5) KINDA LIKE HER can last longer here and stick around for a share. (1) DRY CREEK LIS goes for a barn that can move one up without warning. Keep her in mind if she gets ignored by the betting public. Race 4 (2) TRACES OF PURPLE raced tough in her first start out of the Moreau barn, now she draws much better; top call as the likely chalk. (1) D GS PESQUERO gets to race in this class for a second straight week and she too draws much better; the main danger. (7) KLOOF STREET is interesting adding Lasix here; consider for exotics. (4) PRETTY HOT has gone some tough trips lately. She can share here with a trip, despite the class rise. Race 5 (8) CIRCLE THE PAGE took a new life's mark last time in the second leg of the series; a sweep looms here. (1) GLANCEWITHME made a big first up move and looked like a winner, only to be caught late. She could upset with a better trip here. (9) BIG CHUTE is always around the money it seems, and she should share here, too. (3) BETTIM JACKIE roared by late to win last time, but she seemed to struggle on the final turn and she probably won't be able to survive similar issues here in the final. Race 6 (6) HONOR ABOVE ALL raced much better last week and this isn't a tough spot; slight nod. (2) MAJOR MUSCLE takes a big drop and he is probably the one to beat but expect a low price. (1) JUSTASMALLTOWNGIRL wasn't beaten far last time despite going a long trip. She should be close here leaving from the inside. (9) PRESQUILLE should wind up from far back and pass many of these to make the ticket. Race 7 (3) GERARDO - despite remaining a maiden - has impressed me most in the preliminary legs of this series. Tonight, he gets put into play earlier and graduates in style. (7) JK PRIDENJOY is the one to beat on paper, but he could get a tougher trip here. (6) TREMENDOUS PLAY has raced well in both preliminary legs and he is sure to be a good price here; consider. (2) ARTOFFICIAL FLAVOR got back on track last week, but trip will be tougher here; smaller share predicted. Race 8 (3) P L HURRICANE raced huge in defeat last week, getting nailed right on the line after doing all the work. She's the one to beat here again and Macdonald sticks for a return drive. (7) TEACHERS VET tripped out to win, but it was her high late speed that sealed the deal. She is sharp and dangerous. (8) RUBIS PRESCOTT beat the choice when starting from the same post last week; using. (1) BUTTERMILK HANOVER should be closing for a slice vs. these. Race 9 (2) HOLIDAY PARTY has compiled a solid record in 54 lifetime starts, and not once has he competed in a claimer. He comes up tagged for the first time here, which could attract a claim and facilitate a top effort. (5) MEGO MOSS couldn't catch a determined leader last time, but he fits well here, and he should be heard from again. (4) NATURAL KEMP comes off a failed first-over bid and he could turn the tables with a different trip. (8) MIGHTY NICKY steps up after beating a weak group, but if the race falls apart late, he could pass them all. Race 10 (6) HOT SPOT HANOVER steps up off a narrow loss, but she's sharp and I'll take a swing with her looking for a price in a race with many options. (5) BERNADETTE should have converted last week considering the fractions she was allowed to cut, but maybe she needed the start. (1) BAROCKEY is one that usually wins when I ignore her and bombs out when I pick her. I'll use her in the late Pick 4 as insurance. (8) E R MONICA tripped out to beat the choice last time. She isn't out of this. (4) CAROLINA CHERRY rarely misses the ticket. Use her underneath. [DRF HARNESS NEWSLETTER: Sign Up for the FREE DRF Harness Newsletter.
