We are on the main track for all 9 races at the Big A. We'll have to deal with short fields for a while but we'll find some value along the way. I will be condensing my plays down to just the number and attacking the early double (Races 1 & 2) and a spot pick 3 (Races 4-6). Big Pete will attack his "Play of the Day" and the late pick 3 (Races 7-9). We appreciate you taking a look at this write-up and GOOD LUCK.

Big Pete's "Play of the Day":
Race 3:
Mott has been patient with (3) NOVA RAGS as he was on the shelf for a year and re-surfaced this past June. Two solid runs this year after facing much better last year. He should be primed for a big effort today. With speed on both sides, he'll sit chilly until Jr let's it out a notch.
Both (2) Flamingo Hawk and (6) Stage Left looks solid underneath.
$ 7.00 WPS 3 Cost $ 21.00
$ 7.00 Exacta 3 w/ 2, 6 Cost $ 1400
We’ll also use (3) Nova Rags in R3 and try to cash a DAILY DOUBLE play.
(2) Kingstown and (3) Moonshiningbright look solid in R4.
$ 7.00 Double 3 w/ 2, 3 Cost $ 14.00
Big Pete's Late Pick 3:
Race 7:
The shipper will take some money as (3) OUTLIER has some races that are competitive. I prefer the locals and the (1) LOCALLY OWNED. He gets to track the leader(s) from the rail and Castellano can bide his time for a late rally. He's run well on this track in the past. (4) CHRIS AND DAVE shows up every so often and will provide necessary pace for the stalkers. The sleeper is (7) NO SALT. He's bred to like the mud andrun all day. He's been out of day for a while and comes back off a nice win. Davis has won on him before.
$ 7.00 WPS 1 Cost $ 21.00
$ 3.00 Ex 1, 7 w/ 1, 3, 4, 7 Cost $ 18.00
Race 8:
I thought about singling (6) UNBRIDLED BOMBER as he gets Irad and his last towers over this bunch in terms of a speed figure. But, he is moving up a level and that can't be taken to lightly. They will make him earn it. I want to try and beat him with the Stay Thirsty colt (4) TWO THIRTY FIVE. He was claimed two back and didn't run bad to get 3rd for Rice last time. He's been keeping good company this year and can run all day. Davis returns and any moisture will help.
$ 7.00 WPS 4 Cost $ 21.00
$ 3.00 Ex Box 2, 4, 6 Cost $ 18.00
Race 9:
(7) TREAT STREET will either finish 1st or last in this one. If he takes to the dirt, he clearly is faster than these. BUT, if dirt is not his thing, he's in for a long afternoon. With Street Sense underneath, I'm thinking he'll handle it just fine. (8) BERN ROSEY BERN will try to steal this up front. I think Carmouche has to go and hope for the best. There is not much speed in here and Rosey has a little. I do like the move to Franco for (10) GRACEFULLY WILD. She will likely follow Treat Street's move and try to collar her late. Only these three are on my ticket.
