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.

Big Pete's "Play of the Day":


Race 3:


(2) TONED UP drops from 50k to 32k after a decent 2nd place finish and now Franco takes the call. It feels as if they have her all dressed up for the taking. I'm expecting another solid effort as she found the right field as well. looks to have found the right field.


I’ll use (6) Liberty Bell and (3) Whistler's Style in the exacta.


$ 7.00 WPS 2 Cost $ 21.00

$ 3.00 Ex Box 2, 3, 6 Cost $ 18.00


We’ll also use (2) Toned Up in R3 and try to cash in on a Daily Double.


(3) Boys Code or (6) D Day Say in the 4th.


$ 7.00 Daily Double 2 w/ 3, 6 Cost $ 14.00


 

Big Pete's Late Pick 3:


Race 6:


(1) GONE AND FORGOTTEN and (1A) MOSIENKO may be a little past their prime, but both can wake up at any time and run big. The two-for-one deal looms large with these two professional mares. (3) MAGGIE T has elevated her game recently at this level, so the drop bodes well for her to offer a solid run today. I'll use her, but they all need to beat (4) ELLIPTIC in here. She has been solid since Saratoga and drops to this 25k. If she's 100%, she dominates, but the drop is a little suspect, so include others.


$ 7.00 WPS 1 Cost $ 21.00

$ 3.00 Ex Box 1, 3, 4 Cost $ 18.00


Race 7:


(6) GRAYWING got loose last time, and it paid off. The same tactics will be on full display again. If he clears, he'll get the advantage. I'll use him, but I'm expecting other speeds to show up, so I'll lean heavily on (4) DANGEROUS RIDE to get the perfect setup today. He was closing well but couldn't catch a couple of veterans that were slightly better. Today he finds the right field, and the speeds will be backing up late.


$ 7.00 WPS 4 Cost $ 21.00

$ 7.00 Ex Box 4, 6 Cost $ 14.00



Race 8:


(2) GIROOVIN is in a groove right now and has the best last out speed figure in this field. They wheel him back to try and grab another W. (3) COLD AS HELL has been on the move lately running for his fourth barn in four races. He's collecting checks in the process and this barn is doing well so far this meet. (6) UNLIMITEDPOTENTIAL ran a little over his head last time and now cuts back and is where he belongs. All systems go today for his best effort.


$ 7.00 WPS 6 Cost $ 21.00

$ 3.00 Ex Box 2, 3, 6 Cost $ 18.00
