Superfecta Sunday in Arkansas

On this Superfecta Sunday we look in on racing down in Hot Springs, Arkansas.

Oaklawn Park Race 10 {6 Furlongs~3 year-old Up~Fillies/Mares~Allowance}

An interesting field of twelve will go to the gate in this Allowance feature, the last on the card. There is plenty of speed as you would expect in a sprint distance. Speed numbers are very close. Three of these gals are coming off layoffs competing fresh. Our task is to weave together a winning 10 CENT Superfecta Box ticket. It should be a fine race to cap off our horse racing weekend.

#8 Shilah Baby (T. Baze / Divito) comes off a modest layoff showing the second highest last out speed number and four powerful workouts. This lass should be part of the pace scenario. She loves the distance and the track. A daughter of Graydar, she is 60% in the money from ten career starts. She is our Bronze Horseshoe selection.
$2 SHOW.

#5 Inthemidstofbiz (Cruz / Contreras) could go off as the favorite with the highest last out speed number and one sound workout. This gal should be traveling close to the pace seeking to strike in the stretch. She relishes the distance and the track. A daughter of Fed Biz, she is 50% in the money from eight career starts.

#4 Between the Hedges (Talamo / Amoss) should contend with the third highest (tie) last out speed number. She is 100% in the money at this distance from three starts. This gal has the tactical speed to compete with the rest. A daughter of Union Rags, she looks to move forward on the surface and distance.

#10 Shocking Fast (Santana / Asmussen) should be in the mix with a solid speed number at the distance and over the track. She should be forwardly placed seeking good position for the quickening in the stretch. A daughter of Distorted Humor, she is coming off a route and sporting a 50% in the money record from four career starts.

10 CENT Superfecta Box ($2.40)

#8 Shilah Baby  +  #5 Inthemidstofbiz  +  #4 Between the Hedges  +  #10 Shocking Fast.

Stakes Saturday in Florida

We hope you are staying safe and healthy during these challenging times. We are hopeful that horse racing will come back as more and more jurisdictions began to fight off this pandemic and open their economies to sports.

On this Stakes Saturday we take a look at a small stakes race down in usually sunny South Florida.

Gulfstream Park Race 9 {Unbridled Stakes~1 1/16~3 year-old~Stakes}

A small field of seven is signed up to go to the gate in this featured stakes race. There is some speed to create an honest pace. Only two in this field have gone this distance. Speed figures are fairly close among this crew. With Kentucky Derby 146 re-scheduled for the first Saturday in September, it is possible that these fellas might get onto the trail going forward.
It should be a very fine race.

#2 Americanus (Zayas / Hennig) looks to take another step forward as he stretches out to this distance. He has a 100% in the money record over the Gulfstream Track. This colt comes in with the fifth highest last out speed number and three hearty peaking workouts. A son of War Front, he should be tracking the pace closely looking to strike.
$1 WIN  /  $2 PLACE  /  $3 SHOW.

#4 Relentless Dancer (C. Landeros / Maker) will contend sharing the highest last out speed number and putting in four superb peaking workouts. He is one of two that have already raced at this distance. A son of Midshipman, he should be the leader of this pack and has the opportunity to wire the field.
$1 PLACE  /  $2 SHOW.

#3 Dr. Post (I. Ortiz / Pletcher) looks to go off as the favorite in his third career start. He shows the fourth highest last out speed number and two solid workouts. This guy will be stretching out to this distance. A son of Quality Road, he should be tracking the main group ready to strike.
$1 SHOW.

#7 Attachment Rate (L. Saez / Romans) should challenge sharing the highest last out speed number and four strong workouts. He will be stretching out showing a 100% in the money record over the Gulfstream oval. A son of Hard Spun, he should be tracking the pace closely.

$1 Saturday Exacta Wheel ($3.00)
