Some insights into tonight’s racing program for our IdaBet players:
4TH RACE – (4) E L DARTSMYBOY was pocketed through the fog when ‘peeked’ last out. Remains a bottom claimer and raced well enough to try again.
6TH RACE – (4) MACH ONE won at this level first local try, then hooked a good one in latest. Mid-pack should get him leaving, but sees some talent to inside.
7TH RACE – (2) ALRIGHT GUY is graduate of Hawkeye fairs who arrived here in October, promptly broke at odds-on. Seasonal debut with Lasix, so we try.
8TH RACE – (7) D G’S ELSA whipped lesser in local debut, then up ladder with pocket second in quick mile. Draw stinks, but lass has shown enough to nod.
10TH RACE – (6) THE WALL has won at this level last season for previous barn. Makes first ’18 try and worth a shot in one of nite’s more intriguing events.
11TH RACE – (2) PHIL YOUR BOOTS gets out of gate as well as these and finds himself well-placed to do just that . Taken to take ‘em as far as he can here.
