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. 12:59 LRL 2nd COMPLETE SURPRISE (#4, 6-1) found right spot in local debut as she pressed the manageable pace while in between horses under a confident ride and just had enough to hold the runner-up at bay. She'll likely have to find a bit more as she steps up in class, but there doesn't appear to be a ton of pace in this race and she has enough zip to get close to the lead. -Dan Illman | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 1:18 AQU 3rd AWESOME ALANA (#8, 10-1) never really panned out in the Chad Brown barn, but she did win three of her four starts over this distance on this track, including a clear-cut win over Love and Love late last year; stretches back out off the claim for a trainer sporting strong numbers with his new acquisitions in NY - first after claimed by, dirt, NYRA: 20 for his last 80, 25%, $2.27 ROI. -Mike Beer | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 1:31 GP 3rd LA PINTA (#10, 5-1) had a late-October debut over at Calder that wasn't all that bad; typically aggressive Paco ride can have her in the hunt throughout. -Mike Welsch | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 2:00 GP 4th Back at one turn when assigned the open-air outside box, PAYNTER FEST (#9, 5-1) can loom large once they wheel for home in an open-$6,250 mile that seems tougher than normal for the level; forgive her for flattening out in her latest, but that was going two turns. -Mike Welsch | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 2:15 AQU 5th LOOKIN TO FLY (#7, 6-1) has faced MSW rivals in three of her four starts to date and has run well enough in her last two starts on turf for this trainer to be considered a contender in this spot; wouldn't mind giving her a shot on the main track should this race come off, as she is out of a dam who won eleven dirt races in career, including a couple of NY-bred stakes. -Mike Beer | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 2:30 GP 5th "Quickest of the quick" standard perhaps aptly applied here when REITERATE (#4, 12-1) shows heels as usual through the early stanzas of this N2L turf dash for $20k fillies; 3yo with a smidg of back-class has been a beaten favorite, remarkably, in each of her last 4 starts (and 5 of her last 6), and she's not as proven a speedster on turf as on dirt, but once she clears off, who's gonna run her down here; might just go on with it, finally. -Mike Welsch | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 2:37 LRL 5th BE GOOD (#4, 3-1) is a DRF Best Bet (Dan Illman). | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 2:45 AQU 6th DREAMS OF TOMORROW (#12, 6-1) is starting to become a disappointment, though she really only lacked an excuse in that race at Saratoga prior to the short layoff; handles dirt should this race come off but would like to give him another chance on turf based on that effort at Keeneland two back. -Mike Beer | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 3:45 AQU 8th TIERGAN (#5, 10-1) switched to turf for the first time here 12 days ago and ran well that day while having to steady through the far-turn, before coming clear and finishing up gamely to gain some ground; may be a better sprinter, so cutting back isn't as much of a concern as it otherwise might be, and he also handles dirt should this race come off. -Mike Beer | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 4:00 GP 8th Blinkers sure did work for EMIT (#8, 10-1) when he powered to a career first in his latest at Gulf West, and now he'll face winners for the first time when comfortably drawn in the outer box here; his Beyer game could take some improving, but that seems doable. -Mike Welsch | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 9:03 RP 3rd MAUI JANE (#5, 9-2) moves back to two turns for her second start back and note her last win came at a mile. -Mary Rampellini | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 9:50 RP 5th INSTAFAMOUS (#11, 3-1) must overcome the wide post, but he has natural speed. He's also back on dirt and he ran one of the best races of his career on the main track. -Mary Rampellini | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 11:23 RP 8th POP LIFE (#4, 4-1) cuts back to one turn and his last win came at this seven-eighths of a mile trip, which can be a specialist's distance -Mary Rampellini | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 11:51 RP 9th SMACK ATTACK (#6, 6-1) moves to two turns for his second start back and he gets good pedigree support for the added distance demands. -Mary Rampellini | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets
