Today’s “Lock” is at Dover Raceway on race 14 with the #2-Bodega Bay-In top form and has leading driver Tim Tetrick.

It pays to LOCK IT UP! Thank you for choosing IdaBet.com!

Some insights into tonight’s racing program for our IdaBet players:

3^RD RACE – (1) DONAU is taken to be nothing more than low-hanging fruit here. Gets way too much post relief second off class dip and should have no alibis.

4^TH RACE – (1) STRIKING VOLO was not involved in local debut, though that was 26 days out. Did get some tote action despite layoff, so we gaze this time.

5^TH RACE – (2) DEUCES FOR CHARITY has been an every-out nod in this tome, racing just well enough to force us to stay. Solid, first-up in last, thus again.

7^TH RACE – (2) ARCHERY is another we’ve endorsed before, despite rotten win profile. Comes off a solid, added-distance ‘French’ effort, always offers value.

11^TH RACE – (3) DOJEA SOLO has been one we’ve hopped aboard of late, beating lesser two starts ago before fair third at this level. Venue sucks us in again.

12^TH RACE – (5) BOOK BINGE was ‘peeked’ winner versus lesser in last, though we’ve four-eyeballed before. Been ‘iffy’ versus this class, tepid finale nod.

——

$2 +/- (thru Mon., Mar. 26) – 77 wins ($708)

from 355 ($710) selex (-$2.00, straddling invisible fence)

highest-priced winner – MACHTU N ($33.80)

lowest-priced winners – SOTO/POINT SOMEWHERELSE ($2.70 each)
