Big Pete's "Play of the Day":

Race 3:


Most in here may have already peaked in their careers and are just riding it out. They’re all looking for the right field to cash in on. I think (2) PRAIRE FIRE may have found that group. He was claimed two back by Baker and returned for a decent 3rd against slightly better. Lezcano takes over and Jose is riding confidently again right now. I’ll take all of this 7:2 ML.


Both (4) Mosienko and (7) Red Pepper Grill look solid underneath.


$ 7.00 WPS 2 Cost $ 21.00

$ 7.00 Exacta 2 w/ 4, 7 Cost $ 14.00



We’ll also use Praire Fire in R3 and try to cash in on a DAILY DOUBLE play.


(1) Valmont and (5) Surprise Boss solid in the 4th.



$ 7.00 Double 2 w/ 1, 5 Cost $ 14.00




 

Big Pete's Late Pick 3:


Race 8:


(6) ROYAL TRYST is a tough read. He’s either very good or awful with no in between. The short rest from Feb seems to have this guy in the right frame of mind. It’s a little odd the Davis was not asked back but Jose picks up the mount. His last tops all of these and we are looking for the Re-Pete. The danger is (3) LUNI SIMA as he picks up Irad and those two aired out three back down South. If any moisture is left over, this Keen Ice should glide over it. (1) AIR SHOW is the wild card. He was claimed by Rudy after getting soundly beat by Royal Tryst. They may be a little closer today after some time with Rudy.


$ 7.00 WPS 6 Cost $ 21.00

$ 3.00 Ex 3, 6 w/ 1, 3, 6, 9 Cost $ 18.00




Race 9:


I can’t see too far past either one of Brown’s runners in the 9F G2. (4) NAPOLEONIC WAR is one bad ride away from being 3 for 3. Prat will look to avenge that ride and guide this War Front to the front. (7) UNANIMOUS CONSENT is the stud in the barn and will look to continue winning. He is 3 for 3 and looking for more. I’ll take a stab and include the outsider (2) DAUNT. He wasn’t far from Napoleonic and is bred to run all day out of a Artie Schiller mare. He moves inside and there should be far less traffic to navigate. I can’t pass up this 15:1 ML


$ 7.00 WPS 2 Cost $ 21.00

$ 3.00 Ex Box 2, 4, 7 Cost $ 18.00




Race 10:


We will use both of Brown’s runners because he is on a roll here at Belmont but it’s not his thing when he drops them down a level or two. Both (1) INVESTMENT INCOME and (9) HERINGTON ROCKET exit MSW company and wind up in this MCL. They still must get respected but we’re supposed to bet against. Handal is on a roll as well and it’s odd to see Rosario on a 20:1 shot. (7) UNION DOLLY has speed to control up front and Joel does that pretty good. She’s bred to go longer and may get lonely up front with a lack of speed entered. (10) CADENCIA is who I’ll land on as she is fresh off the claim and stretches back to her preferred distance. Davis gets the call and he is still winning.


$ 7.00 WPS 10 Cost $ 21.00

$ 3.00 Ex 7, 10 w/ 1, 7, 9, 10 Cost $ 18.00
