Some insights into tonight’s Ides of March racing program for our IdaBet.com players:
3RD RACE – (3) LUKE’S COWBOY goes second off claim after some good late interest from outer venue. Not necessarily proven number versus these, but…
5TH RACE – (4) HELLO HOT SHOT has been far from prolific since return to town, all at this level. That said, draws bit better and couldn’t get blanker rivals.
7TH RACE – (2) DIABANDO offers hideous win resume, as in 3-for-40 over past two seasons. Did beat bottom crowd couple of starts ago, decent getaway now.
9TH RACE – (2) O’SUNDLAND was eight-ball nod in last, doing everything right…until he pulled pocket and went backwards. In six places, gazed once more.
10TH RACE – (4) SIR PUGSLEY invades for first Westchester try since last August. Credible going through restricted foes then, class-tested this time around.
11TH RACE – (2) CHUCARO ACERO BC is boardless in a trio of 18 tries, last couple at this level. No reason to surmise he can’t get a useful trip from here.
12TH RACE – (4) WAVES OF FIRES A returns to level of last win, max of his abilities. Forgiven for subsequent tries, edge in ‘Happy Birthday Shirley’ finale.
