Some insights into tonight’s racing program for our IdaBet players:
3RD RACE – (8) THRUST CONTROL seems as functional as any of these. Couldn’t sustain second Philly move, subsequently breaking, draw stinks now, too.
4TH RACE – (4) PAMMY JO has not embarrassed herself of late, outracing her odds in last pair. Perhaps bit of a crapshoot in this higher-level Excelsior event.
6TH RACE – (1) ACES AND EIGHTS pole-dances, has speed and minds his manners. Whether that’s enough to prove he goes with these is unanswered query.
9TH RACE – (3) PAINTED LADY was pocket second to good one in Tioga NYSS event. Maybe that’s dressed-up effort, but we try in opener of Watson Pace.
10TH RACE – (4) HURRIKANE SHORTY has not resembled her frosh self this season. Outdraws main second-event rivals in NYSS Art Watson Pace, so…?
12TH RACE – (3) SWAN FOREVER has been ‘peeked’ more than once, not endearing us. That said, enough post relief for confirmed closer in a rare trot finale.
