From the MONDAY EVENING, JANUARY 21
Race 1: 5- DJ Lance – Draws into a race where several could win; could get the edge over the others if he is over the sickness he has the
last time. 1- Hands Off Frank – Looks to be a solid contender from the rail. 7- Cadillac Phil – Could make the ticket despite the poor
post draw. 8- Smart Move – Another “outsider” that could grab a piece of the action.
Race 2: 9- Pointblank Hanover – Should get a good trip and could be the one that starts the Pick 5. 5- Gwally – Made the ticket in both
of his most recent races and could be right there again tonight. 1- SS Tys Aflyin – Could be a solid contender from the rail.
Race 3: 9- Amora Beach – Has been a win-machine and could keep the streak alive. 7- Khan Blue Chip – Could do well in here if he is
completely over the lameness he had the last time he was scheduled to compete. 4- This Baby Rocks – One of several in here that could
make the ticket. 5- Cuz I’m Happy – Should not be overlooked as a potential contender.
Race 4: 3- Marty De Vie – Posted a successful qualifier and could cross the wire a winner in his first start back. 5- Star Chip – Won his
most recent effort and looks to be tough again. 6- Noble Legend – Made the ticket in three of his last four efforts. 4- Dartmouth Hall –
Has as good of a shot as any in here to complete the Superfecta.
Race 5: 4- Dragonology – Draws into a race where several could win; this one gets the slight call over the others to get the job done in
here. 9- Unlocked – Another that looks to have a big shot in here. 2- Fusion Five – Finished third in both of his most recent races and
Some insights into tonight’s racing program for our IdaBet.com players:
4TH RACE – (2) NOBLE WARRAWEE gets a repeat nod after disappointing us week ago. A weak, first-up from pole then, but another good draw sucking us in.
5TH RACE – (6) THAT’S AMAZING turned in more than credible effort for first purse try since mid-October. If races back to that, nothing preventing her here.
8TH RACE – (1) TITANIUM N finally rids himself of outer half of gate. Ha not raced poorly despite those imposts, edge winning draw against some toughies.
9TH RACE – (6) TELL ME A JOKE was 15-1 four-eyeball week ago, made first-up lead into lane before tiring. Maybe he gets carried intro it this time around.
10TH RACE – (2) SCOTCH McEWAN moves inside half-dozen places after hard leave in last. Have to surmise his best is better than anyone in mundane finale.
