A chilly Valentine Friday with 8 races scheduled at the Big A. No feature as I will be condensing my plays down to just the number and attacking the early double starting in R2 (Races 1 & 2) and a spot pick 3 (Races 3-5). Big Pete will attack his "Play of the Day" and the late pick 3 (Races 6-8). We appreciate you taking a look at this write-up and GOOD LUCK.
Little Pete's $ 15.00 Early Double:
R1: 4
R2: 6 Cost: $ 15.00
Little Pete's $ 1.00 Spot Pick 3:
R3: 2
R4: 5, 7, 8
R5: 3, 5, 8 Cost: $ 9.00

R7: 4, 8
R8: 3, 5, 7, 9 Cost: $ 24.00
Big Pete's "Play of the Day":
Race 4:
Both Palace Boss and Schlomo will attract some attention, but both are coming off a long layoff. I'll let them go at it early and tire each other out and wait for Franco to pull the trigger on (5) LEO'S REWARD. They added blinkers last time, and it helped, and I like the short cut back for Donk.
I’ll use (7) Palace Boss and (8) Schlomo in the exacta.
$ 7.00 WPS 5 Cost $ 21.00
$ 3.00 Ex Box 5, 7, 8 Cost $ 18.00
We’ll also use (5) Leo's Reward in R4 and try to cash in on a Daily Double.
(3) Ice Road or (5) Wine Responsibly in the 5th.
$ 7.00 Daily Double 5 w/ 3, 5 Cost $ 14.00
Big Pete's Late Pick 3:
Race 6:
(3) AKINMUSIRE woke up when they stretched him out and added blinkers. This 1M seems perfect, and now they add L1. He was 2nd to (6) ARCADIAN last time, and both look solid again. I'll just use these two and look for Akinmusire to turn the tables on Arcadian today.
$ 7.00 WPS 3 Cost $ 21.00
$ 3.00 Ex 3, 6 w/ 2, 3, 6 Cost $ 18.00
Race 7:
(4) AGGELOS THE GREAT inherits the favorite role and figures to be tough to beat in here. I'll lean heavily on him but include a saver with (8) CALDO CANDY in case the Great one is not so great. I'm guessing Caldo will try to clear this time and try to steal it.
$ 7.00 WPS 4 Cost $ 21.00
$ 7.00 Ex 4 w/ 1, 3, 8 Cost $ 21.00
Race 8:
(5) NINE N FOUR had an excuse last time and still managed to get 2nd. He'll take some action today, and I'm expecting another late run. (3) RUM CAY is a first-timer with a strong gate move in the AM. Gets L1 for this sharp barn and feels live to me. (7) E Z BOURBON and (9) RUN WITH HONOR showed speed in their debut and both now drop to an easier level. Either would be no surprise.
