While trying to leverage a strong opinion on a horse in the third race Sunday at Gulfstream, I tried to come up with an early pick five (races 1-5) but found both the fourth and fifth races absolutely confounding. Go ahead and extend this opening pick three into those races if you’ve got a solid opinion, but I felt the best way to maximize my play was to land squarely on HERR DROSSELMEYER in race 3.

One of the main issues for tackling Santa Anita’s Sunday card is how to gauge the track condition. Heavy recent rain almost surely will impact the footing, though it’s encouraging that track management still carded a couple of turf events for Sunday. So, if they felt good enough to card such races, we’ll rely on their judgment that the footing will be decent. With that in mind, the end-of-the-day pick three (races 8-10), with a turf race as its middle leg, has some appeal.
