HILLBILLY BOB an improving sort in dangerous hands off the claim and likely to be among those who would benefit if this one comes off the grass. Comes off career best eyer last time in relatively well graded N2L on the synthetic. – Mike Welsch | Get Past Performances for this race Post Time: 1:05 ET Track: Tampa Bay Downs (2nd Race) Horse: P FOUR (#4, 4-1) P FOUR has been facing better, and though he was off the board in his last pair he was against the race flow two back and the Beyer he earned last time gives him some credibility; expecting an improved effort on this class drop. – Kenny Peck | Get Past Performances for this race Post Time: 1:36 ET Track: Tampa Bay Downs (3rd Race) Horse: GULLFAXI (#1, 4-1) GULLFAXI was never a threat in the Rampart Stakes but that was a race that featured a fair amount of speed, and now she drops in class, lands in a race lacking pace and gets the rail; that should all mean she is close to the lead from the start today and she could in fact be the one they have to catch. – Kenny Peck | Get Past Performances for this race Post Time: 2:15 ET Track: Fair Grounds (2nd Race)  Horse: HUSTLIN' MAN (#9, 8-1) The barn rarely wins with first-timers, but HUSTLIN' MAN has many, many drills for his debut and whatever ability he has, he ought to be sufficiently fit to display it. Taken in great part because those that have raced already have demonstrated their stark limitations. – Marcus Hersh | Get Past Performances for this race Post Time: 2:39 ET Track: Tampa Bay Downs (5th Race) Horse: GETAHOLDAYOURSELF (#3, 7-2) GETAHOLDAYOURSELF is a DRF Best Bet (Kenny Peck). | Get Past Performances for this race Post Time: 3:15 ET Track: Aqueduct (5th Race) Horse: IN AWE OF JUJU (#4, 5-1) IN AWE OF JUJU is a DRF Best Bet (Mike Beer). | Get Past Performances for this race Post Time: 3:46 ET Track: Aqueduct (6th Race) Horse: KENNY BE (#4, 9-2) KENNY BE was an impressive maiden winner early on, before placing in a stakes race, and he has landed in some tough allowance races since then; was last seen pulling a tough trip at Saratoga last summer, after which he was laid up; starts back fresh in a spot where he can be tough if ready. – Mike Beer | Get Past Performances for this race Post Time: 4:00 ET Track: Santa Anita (1st Race) Horse: BENNY'S PUZZLE (#5, 9-2) BENNY'S PUZZLE is the only true late-runner in this turf mile for Cal-bred maidens. He ran his final quarter-mile last out in :24.04, three starts ago he finished in :24.02. None of his rivals finish as fast as those final fractions. If he gets a clean trip, 'PUZZLE can mow them down. – Brad Free | Get Past Performances for this race Post Time: 4:12 ET Track: Tampa Bay Downs (8th Race) Horse: CHICO CHARLIE (#7, 10-1) CHICO CHARLIE makes his first start off the claim by trainer Ramon Aguayo, who has won with two of his last five such runners, and though he was far up the track in his latest that was no easy trip, as he was caught up in a race-long duel; will be tough to reel in if he is able to get clear and back down the fractions, as expected. – Kenny Peck | Get Past Performances for this race Post Time: 4:15 ET Track: Fair Grounds (6th Race) Horse: ICEBERG SLIM (#5, 9-2) Debuting ICEBERG SLIM has a solid enough work pattern and one very fast half-mile drill for debut. The dam was a zippy turf sprinter with some talent and has produced several horses of similar style and ability. The trainer always has won at a very high percentage with first-timers, and I don't see how this horse goes at a price as high as 9-2. – Marcus Hersh | Get Past Performances for this race Post Time: 4:17 ET Track: Aqueduct (7th Race) Horse: PURPLE DIVINE (#2, 6-1) PURPLE DIVINE got caught in a pace duel and weakened late when favored on debut last November; kept a competitive pace in range before prevailing to win her next start, and has made two of her three starts since in stakes company, including a good effort for third going a mile last time; steps back in class for her second start off the claim. – Mike Beer | Get Past Performances for this race Post Time: 5:45 ET Track: Fair Grounds (9th Race) Horse: KETCHUM (#9, 6-1) It was not the "checked late" that got KETCHUM beat as the favorite last out. Rather, he couldn't or wouldn't run straight through the homestretch while changing leads several times. Maybe better off covered up and coming with one run? If he rebounds to the level he hit two back - and I think he will - he can win at a considerably better price than last time. – Marcus Hersh | Get Past Performances for this race Post Time: 6:06 ET Track: Santa Anita (5th Race) Horse: SPOTTED HAZE (#11, 4-1) Lightly raced SPOTTED HAZE makes her first start since June, with a history of firing fresh. Both wins were off the bench: her career debut vs. maidens, and last May vs. Cal-bred allowance rivals on dirt. Although neither turf start was that great, this is the first time she will have raced on turf while running fresh. There is not much true speed in this field; SPOTTED HAZE figures to be positioned first or second early. – Brad Free | Get Past Performances for this race Post Time: 7:06 ET Track: Santa Anita (7th Race) Horse: RUNNING SPARTAN (#5, 6-1) RUNNING SPARTAN is back with maidens after a promising comeback vs. winners in a in starter allowance turf sprint. He pressed the pace, made the lead, stuck in there until late, and got collared. Good try by a 5yo who needed the start, it was his first in more than a year. He ran well against tougher early in his career, and is fast enough to handle maidens. – Brad Free | Get Past Performances for this race Post Time: 7:15 ET Track: Fair Grounds (12th Race) Horse: HE'S LATE AGAIN (#4, 6-1) Trainer Brad Cox does not claim many at this stage of career but he and a local owner dipped in to take HE'S LATE AGAIN for $35K last time. That claim surely came with this very race in mind, and it looks like a potentially good claim - a relatively young horse who has shown quite a bit of ability. I'll take him to jump forward and post what would be a minor upset if he didn't figure to take quite a bit of money. – Marcus Hersh | Get Past Performances for this race Looking for more action?
