Daily Racing Form has served as the most trusted source of news and information about the sport since 1894, and moving forward we have decided to provide a free daily playbook – something that both hardcore horseplayers and casual observers can reference to get informed of each day’s action. 12:42 TAM 1st DENY (#5, 4-1) and HE’S ROYALTY come out of the same race, a sprint that seems stronger than the races from which the experienced runners in this opener emerge. The former was behind the latter on the wire, but seemed to be moving best of all late, and he was at a tactical disadvantage given his early position and the speed-favoring race flow, but the latter is the one to beat after finishing a close 2nd in that first start off the long layoff, even though it was with the aid of a perfect trip. – Kenny Peck | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets  12:50 AQU 2nd TUFF BIRD (#3, 9-2) wired a field the first time she routed on dirt in September, and she contested the pace in a race that went to closers when facing winners for the first time last month; may not have as tough a time of it on the pace this time, as she makes her NY debut off the claim. – Mike Beer | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 1:33 GP 3rd CALIBRATOR (#7, 8-1) showed fondness for the lawn winning 2YO debut with good Beyer Fig now back to what may be preferred surface and distance off the lengthy layoff. Works indicate should be ready for top effort off bench. – Mike Welsch | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 1:39 TAM 3rd MAGICAL TALE (#3, 5-1) just missed the place in his seasonal debut last time out, and while that was a game effort, the real appeal lies in the quickness of that sprint, as the winner, Recorder, posted a 73 Beyer in a race where the average winning figure is 64; prior Beyer makes him especially easy to like. – Kenny Peck | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 2:45 AQU 6th MOON SWEEPER (#1, 6-1) has made her first two starts on turf, where she raced greenly both times while showing some potential; this may just be an experiment to see what happens for the rest of the winter, but she has the pedigree to handle this surface as a sister to four runners from this dam who are all better on the dirt. – Mike Beer | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 3:30 LRC 1st Friday post time 12:30; this juvenile maiden-claiming race is a split of race 3. The experienced runners look ordinary, this race is ideal for first-time starter, RECKONING DAY (#3, 6-1). – Brad Free | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 3:45 AQU 8th CUSTOMEREXPERIENCE (#2, 3-1) found herself racing in some lower-level claiming races after returning from the layoff this year, but she came around quickly while being popular at the claim box and ran the best race of her career off the Rudy re-claim last time to easily handle starter allowance rivals; back quickly while going good and her tactical speed plays in this race. - Mike Beer | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 3:50 TAM 7th SHES DYNOMITE (#10, 8-1) is wide, but she has the speed to get position, which should mean she’s forwardly place from the start; she ran well over this course last year and though her best race at that meet was in her 2nd start off the layoff she has been working well toward her return, suggesting she’s ready for new trainer Kathleen O’Connell. – Kenny Peck | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 4:08 GP 8th THINKABOUTIT (#9, 8-1) could offer some value here despite exiting well graded maiden win trying grass for the first time today. Has enough breeding to handle the surface. – Mike Welsch | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets
