DRF's Horse Racing Playbook for Saturday, September 25, 2021
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.
1:10 WO 1st I’M NOT PERFECT (#6, 5-2) was competitive in each of her last two races on the main turf at this level. She should take some beating, if she makes a smooth transition to the tighter inner course. – Ron Gierkink | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets
2:48 WO 4th JACKIE’S PRIDE (#6, 6-1) was fourth behind the future N1X winner Spite Store the only time he saw action July 23. The son of Old Forester has worked regularly leading up easier OS/$40K sprint for a capable second-out trainer. – Ron Gierkink | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets
3:58 GP 8th MALIBU MAX (#9, 4-1) lost his last two by double digits, but he was facing tougher, and he might not have cared for the sloppy conditions when he chased a runaway winner in his latest. He was not wearing blinkers when he won back-to-back races earlier this year, and they come off after he wore them in his last three starts. – Randy Goulding | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets
4:30 WO 7th HAZELBROOK (#3, 8-1) is a DRF Best Bet (Ron Gierkink). | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets
6:05 WO 10th SMALL TALK (#8, 3-1) showed an affinity for the tight inner course when first and second in his last two outings vs. maiden special opposition. The Sam-Son homebred doesn’t look out of place in this N1X on the inner. – Ron Gierkink | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets
6:12 GP 12th MY BEAUTIFUL PRINCESS (#9, 4-1) ran well in both of her turf races, which includes her latest where she set an honest pace while finishing third in a similar race. The horse that was pushing her finished last and there does not appear to be as much speed in this field, so she could be gone, if she breaks on top. – Randy Goulding | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets
