Saturday’s featured Bears Den has always been interesting, a two turn affair for three-year-olds going one mile 70 yards on Tapeta Track, and the interests for us are posted outside.
The more logical of the two we’re considering is Armstrong (7-2) who’s circling back to her best run for Jose D’Angelo.
D’Angelo has his hat in the ring to be crowned the King of Tapeta Track, especially going Dirt to All Weather, a profitable 28% given that scenario, making him a solid contender here.
Now we know that Free Smoke (20-1) is taking a serious class hike for state-bred allowance types but her performance figures are forward.
Free Smoke never taken a backward step and indeed improved when stretched to two turns in her latest run. Carlos David profitable record going long and on synth adds to be appeal.
We’re betting Free Smoke to win at 10-1 or greater and an exacta box with Armstrong.
