Well, we picked the right race last week and the right horse as Edgeway got pounded down to 9-to-5 and won like an odds-on favorite. The nice thing is that Cynical Girl came along to complete a very generous $18 BreezeFigs exacta. The rest of the week was very strange—not many races and only three BreezeFigs maidens won, all at Gulfstream, where one resulted in a BreezeFigs exacta.
Weekend GamePlan has gone from having too few stakes races from which to choose to finding too many.
Can’t get to the Gulfstream races (like Archidust in the Silks Run, race 9) or Oaklawn (Wendell Fong in the Hot Springs, race 8), and there are playable races at Tampa Bay Downs (Outburst in the Tampa Oaks) beyond the main event. The Gotham looks juicy (Untitled is the selection), and Santa Anita’s stakes came up competitive, but since I favor short-priced Authentic in the San Felipe, we’ll pass on the SoCal 3-year-olds for now.

She won her career debut in a maiden special weight sprint for 3-year-old fillies and her time of 1:09.05 for six furlongs was the fastest of the card’s five races at the distance. The races included an optional $75,000 claiming sprint for fillies and mares won by the Grade 2-placed Classy Act in 1:09.99.
