DRF's Horse Racing Playbook for Sunday, March 10, 2024

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.

12:39 GP 2nd ROYAL WINTOUR (#2, 6-1) ran well in her debut even though it was two turns on the turf. She goes second time everything and most runners improve when doing so but especially maidens. Her turf and distance Tomlinsons are rock solid and she draws fine. -Scott Ehlers | Bet this race with DRF Bets

12:48 TAM 2nd PRINCESS BU CHERRO (#1, 6-1) gets back to a sprint, and that debut try when sent one turn was decent; adding to the appeal is the fact that that race came up faster than par, and though she's up in price the maiden ranks have thinned at this point of the meet, making this rise less impactful than it would be immediately after that try. -Kenny Peck | Bet this race with DRF Bets

1:26 LRL 3rd CAVENDISH (#3, 7-2) was bumped at the start at Aqueduct, battled outside 9-2 Level Up (finished fourth) and 28-1 Pine Alley (finished seventh), made the lead from the outside at the seven-sixteenths, then stayed on to be easily second best behind Gulfstream shipper Hazon. Interesting to see him back on short notice for high-percentage barn. -Dan Illman | Bet this race with DRF Bets

1:30 OP 1st ANNIVERSAIRE D'OR (#6, 9-2) should be sharp for the move to two turns off the sprint start. He's also appealing for the fact that he has an age edge on most of these, who are 3. -Mary Rampellini | Bet this race with DRF Bets

1:37 GP 4th RAGING FURY (#6, 6-1) gets a fast pace to chase and can fire fresh as he won his debut. He gets 1st Lasix and that is a 29% move for this barn. His last race came back key when 2 of 5 returned to win with figs of 63 and 70. Class drop can only help and this 3YO is now a gelding. -Scott Ehlers | Bet this race with DRF Bets

1:47 TAM 4th GENERAL COMMAND (#2, 7-2) really impressed with a strong late rally in that sprint three back; he faded in his return but seven furlongs may have been too far for him, and he had already proven he doesn't like the turf, so his latest is easily forgiven and he can win this with the right set up. -Kenny Peck | Bet this race with DRF Bets

2:59 LRL 6th REE NEE'S SIX (#4, 4-1) prompted three wide and in between, split rivals to engage in a three-furlong duel inside favored Hot Dance, then stayed gamely along the rail to graduate. Hot Dance then placed for $45,000 with a 63 Beyer. Gets a class test in a race with a bit more pace for barn that went 10 for 36 (28%, $2.38 ROI) between 1/28 and 3/3. Rojas lands here instead of Feelin So Lucky. -Dan Illman | Bet this race with DRF Bets

3:54 TAM 8th AMY MULE (#8, 15-1) is a DRF Best Bet (Kenny Peck). | Bet this race with DRF Bets

4:07 GP 9th CYBER NINJA (#2, 10-1) is a DRF Best Bet (Scott Ehlers). | Bet this race with DRF Bets

4:18 OP 6th G T FIVE HUNDRED (#4, 6-1) was third last out in a race that went in good time. It came against the $50K starter allowance crowd. -Mary Rampellini | Bet this race with DRF Bets

4:25 TAM 9th NOBLE FACTOR (#4, 5-1) wasn't badly beaten when stepped up to this level in his latest, a decent effort, even if he benefited from the favorable race flow; the Beyers he's posted in his first two starts fit well with these and they're good enough to make him a winner in the finale if he can run to them. -Kenny Peck | Bet this race with DRF Bets

4:31 AQU 7th GOT THUNDER (#6, 6-1) ran a big race two back when carrying a long run before eventually dueling down the in-form Factually Correct, only to get nailed on the wire while matching his Beyer top; rebound chance after failing to fire over a very wet track last Saturday. -Mike Beer | Bet this race with DRF Bets

4:36 GP 10th STREETERVILLE (#1, 12-1) broke 8th of 9 in her debut and then ran evenly. She didn't get a ton of play either when sent off at almost 18-1. She stays on the green for her second start and adds distance which is key. Her distance Tomlinson is 400 so a mile should be ideal. We count at least three recent works which can only help. The rail draw is a plus on the stretch-out going two turns. -Scott Ehlers | Bet this race with DRF Bets

4:50 OP 7th RED RIVER MAGIC (#6, 7-2) draws an improved post over her last start, when she broke from the 12-hole in a mile race at Oaklawn. -Mary Rampellini | Bet this race with DRF Bets
