1/3 Wednesday at Gulfstream, but the Gullet Shot winner was bet down to 9/5. Good thing this racing week is just getting started. Today’s card stinks, but Saturday’s is mouth watering. Skip.
Race 4: 1m70yds. (All-Weather) F.Clm 8000n2L
#9 Pimenova (6/1) – This mare plunges in class and switches to the synthetic after a dull effort on the Gulfstream turf last time. Her turf races last fall put her in the winners circle here and Irad wouldn’t be taking the mount if she couldn’t run anymore. 4/1 would be fair price for the Conductor.
Race 5: 1 1/16 Mile. (All-Weather) Clm 16000
#2 Sanpirodu (6/1) – Most of these competitors are exiting a Gulfstream race at this level that was very slow. This colt is taking a monstrous class drop after switching to turf last time. He returns to synthetic where he’s run his best races and should be dead fit in his 3rd start off a layoff. His past synthetic speed figures are also among the best in this field as well. With a nice inside post, Sanpirodu looks to get a favorable trip.
Race 7: 5 Furlongs. (All-Weather) OC 25000n1x
*Gullet Shot of the Day #4 Famous Gent (9/2) – This gelding missed the break in a turf sprint last time and had no chance. He was favored vs tougher that day and now returns to the synthetic. He won his last start over this surface three stats back and the Conductor sees him as the most likely winner in the field. Trainer Fernando Abreau is 6/17 with a +$0.65 ROI this year with beaten favorites in their next start. 9/2 would be a dream, but 3/1 is still fair.
