Superfecta Sunday at Golden Gate

We conclude our horse racing weekend with a stab at 10 CENT Superfecta Box at glorious Golden Gate Fields.  It has been a relatively warm January here in Chicago, but a cold one for our handicapping.  February looms and with luck will be fantastic.

Golden Gate Race 8 {6 furlongs~4 year old Up~fillies/mares~Allowance}
A superb allowance race which includes eight gals evenly divided between fillies and mares.  There will be a great deal of speed in this race which could set it up for a horse coming off the pace.  Our challenge is to cobble together a winning 10 CENT Superfecta Box ticket.

#3 Advance Ticket (Gryder / Patterson) looks exceptionally primed to take this one.  She holds the highest (tie) last out speed number, a six race progression, and two modest workouts.  She is 87% in the money at this distance and loves the Golden Gate tapeta surface.  Hanging back and swooping through to victory could be her best strategy.
$2 SHOW.

#5 Chukchi Sunrise (R. Baze / Morey) will provide a strong effort sharing the highest last out speed number and putting in two solid peaking workouts.  Her speed will serve her well and should allow her to hold on for a piece.

#6 Prima Gianna (Couton / Bellasis) could be the surprise here with the second highest (tie) last out speed number, a two race progression, and three significant peaking workouts.  She has closed well at the distance and over the surface.

#4 So Tempted (Antongeorgi / Hess) is another that could do well in this race sharing the second highest last out speed number, holding a two race progression, and putting in three good workouts.  She can be expected to be forwardly placed, ready to strike in the stretch.

10 CENT Superfecta Box ($2.40)

#3 Advance Ticket  +  #5 Chukchi Sunrise  +  #6 Prima Gianna  +  #4 So Tempted.
