NO LIMIT PLAYS -- SANTA ANITA
Race 1 - Sweet Silence will be overlooked in this 7-furlong Maiden Claimer. Bet small to win and use liberally in exactas and tris underneath.
Race 4 - Hit and Hope is value at 6/1 ML. He ran a bang up race routing on the grass and comes off a New Pace Top for Drysdale..
Race 6 - St. Charbel (15/1 ML) has a punchers chance. Use the favorite, Sanguine in gimmicks.
Race 10 - Wild Diplomat is a steal at 8/1 ML..
Race 11 Easter Born and Toppler both merit strong consideration at 8/1 or better.

How about showing your the results of your Saturday picks?
I might be convinced to try your sheets if they show promise but I am sure not going to take the time to check you out myself...seems to me you ought to do that.

Frank,
You appear well named. I mean, “if your sheets show promise?” “Don’t have time to check it out myself?”
Well, Frank, if you take your handicapping and wagering seriously, even just for serious fun, you should make time to check the results out for yourself.
Let’s talk just two weekends that for me leap to mind. One was last week, because we’re in a what-have-you-done-lately business.
On Santa Anita Derby day, Cary gave out four plays, mostly, from what I can see, off favorable Equiform patterns.
Power Blitz was coming off a huge “turf spread.” Got lucky there at $42.40.
Then Bob Black Jack (new pace top) finished second in S.A. Derby at 6-1.
Tangled Tangle was off a compression line: $7.40.
Then he gave out two horses, I think it was in the finale. Anyway, All Man, just, as they say, coming off a “good line,” paid $13.80.
Unfortunately, however, Fotias has not picked a $100 horse since Jan. 12. Remember Air Commander?
Cary’s not about picking winners; he’s all about the Benjamins. And crafting his figures.
I think those two weeks will keep you in action until Saratoga. So, Frank, please don’t insult my man. I don’t pay him very well and he just might decide to take a walk. That would be HRI’s loss.
Thanks for commenting.
