Picks and analysis for mandatory-payout Assiniboia Downs Jackpot Pick 5 on Sept. 20, 2023

By Sheri Riddoch
Jason Halstead
Assiniboia Downs closes its 2023 racing season on Wednesday.

RACE 3: LADY COP has been incredibly consistent all year, expect a rebound effort off that third place last out as she had a little traffic in the stretch. She will need to rate off the speed as there are many other front-runners in the field. RUSSIAN PEARL sat the perfect stalking trip last out rebounding from a subpar effort. She just may get the same setup here. CATCH THE DREAM proved very game last out going gate to wire against allowance company in her first start of the season.

Brad Free's Los Alamitos horses to watch from Sept. 16-17, 2023

By Brad Free

ESSENTIAL BUSINESS
Trainer: Doug O’Neill
Last race: Sept. 16, 7th
Finish: 6th by 24
Beyer: 35
Even-money allowance filly broke slowly, pinched, rushed inside, shuffled on turn, and surrendered. This race was a toss-out for filly with legit excuses (bad trips, distance) for her last three defeats.

Brad Free's Del Mar horses to watch from week of Sept. 8-10, 2023

By Brad Free

RESPECT THE CROWN
Trainer: Jeff Mullins
Last race: Sept. 8, 2nd
Finish: 3rd by 1 1/4
Beyer: 70
Debut 2-year-old filly broke well in turf sprint, void of speed, picked up steam into lane, finished well, and galloped out in front of the field. Very promising debut by daughter of Palace Malice.
