Horse Racing Weekend begins with Turf

We roll into the horse racing weekend by looking at a classic Turf contest in sunny Southern California.

Santa Anita Race 3 {Possibly Perfect Handicap~1 1/2 mile~TURF~3 year old Up~fillies/mares~Stakes}
A great group of seven gals will take to the green in this feature handicap.  There is enough speed to keep things rolling. Any one of these gals could win this race.  Only one has gone this distance.  It should be a very interesting race.

#6 Customer Base (Smith / Proctor) should be able to get the job done with the highest last out speed number, a two race progression, an two solid workouts.  With a decent pace she will be kicking through the stretch.
$2 SHOW.

#3 Change the Channel (T. Baze / McCarthy) should challenge with an excellent speed number two starts back and three superb peaking workouts. This gal will be motoring near the front end seeking to control the speed.
$2 SHOW.

Other Wagering Interests

#2 Charlie Em [GB] (M. Garcia / Gallagher) will be in the mix with the second highest last out speed number, a three race progression, and three high quality peaking workouts. She should be forwardly placed ready to get first jump coming into the stretch.

#4 Plaza de Indias [CHI] (F. Perez / Miller) should contend with the third highest last out speed number and four hearty workouts.  She too will be running late toward the wire. This gal is 50% in the money from twenty-four starts.

Superfecta Sunday in Erie

On this Superfecta Sunday we take a look at a premiere synthetic mile in hard knocking Erie, Pennsylvania.

Presque Isle Downs {Winward Stakes~1 mile~3 year old Up~fillies/mares~Stakes}
A great group of eleven gals will take to the Tapeta surface in this featured stakes race.  There is plenty of speed and forwardly placed types to maintain a swift pace.  Most in here have done very well over the Presque Isle synthetic surface.  With a large field of equally talented horses, it should be a challenge to wrap together a winning 10 CENT Superfecta box ticket.

#7 Awesome Flower (Allen / Maker) should be the deserved favorite with the highest last out speed number at a longer route and two dynamite workouts.  She has grabbed a win on the surface earning the highest speed number over it.  This gal has the tactical speed to stay with the leaders and swoop into the stretch for the victory.

#5 Absolute Crackers [IRE] (McCarthy / Motion) will challenge with the second highest last out speed number and a two race progression.  She to has earned a win over this surface scoring the second highest speed number at such.  This gal will be tracking the pace closely ready to strike.

#11 Monster Sleeping (J. Garcia / Capuano) could be sneaky good with the fourth highest last out speed number, a two race progression, and one monster workout.  She has already scored two victories at the distance and is 100% in the money over the tapeta in six starts.  This lass is our Bronze Horseshoe selection.
$2 SHOW.

#10 Primed for Passion (Pino / Sheppard) should contend valiantly with the third highest (tie) last out speed number, a two race progression, and three stellar workouts.  She too is 100% in the money at Presque Isle from six starts.  A stunning pace will induce her glorious closing kick.
