Some insights into tonight’s racing program for our IdaBet players:
3RD RACE – (1) NEPTUNE does rid himself of consecutive eight-holes and remains as bottom feeder. Always been useful enough to go with these, so we try.
4TH RACE – (3) LOVE AMERICANSTYLE had no luck in New York Sire Stakes, as in scratch-sick (from pole, no less) and impeded try. Whips Excelsiors.
6TH RACE – (1) JUSTICE MY WAY is another who gets rare good getaway and with work background to make it work for him. Never much of a leaver, but…
7TH RACE – (3) AMERICAN MARILYN did lose all shot at outset in career and statebred debut. Sacrilegious for gaze in opener of NYSS Frank Becerra Pace?
8TH RACE – (3) HURRIKANE NORAKANE was a ‘put-up peek’ last time this division was here. Did offer speed then, outdraws what she has to handle now.
12TH RACE – (6) ACE OF CLUBS tries it second off a barn change, chasing back-class winner in last, inside trio combined 1-for-38. We report and you decide.
