By Top Turf Teddy – The Prince of Pace
The “Worst Stinkin’ Bet of the Day” for Wednesday, January 15, 2020, will be in the 8th Race at Sammy Houston.
Teddy’s Princely Proverbs: “I like Ike.”
4-Ike chased a fast pace on 12 December, her second time back from May, and failed to close late. Too soon to give up on this lightly-raced 5-year old. M/L favorite 2-Taruca wailed on him on 12 December, but what’s 6 lengths anyway when you are analyzing a horse’s total body of work. Whether your name is John, Jim or Mike, better bet on Ike.
