San Vicente (G2) at Santa Anita: The good news is that I didn’t get sucked into the AX MAN pre-race hype, who finished off the board at 2/5. But the bad news is I also didn’t isolate the winner (KANTHAKA, $24.20), who is now a perfect two-for-two at the quirky seven furlong distance.
Santa Maria (G2) at Santa Anita: As expected, UNIQUE BELLA ($2.20) could not have been more impressive in her 2018 debut. And when MOPOTISM finished second, that made my $50 straight exacta worth $130.00, demonstrating how you can turn a 1/9 shot into a decent profit by aggressively playing the exotic pools.
Gulfstream Park Turf (G1) at Gulfstream Park: Live by the exotic pools and die by the exotic pools. That was the case in this race as I had HEART TO HEART ($7.20) as my top selection, but got split in the exactas when KURILOV beat out HI HAPPY for second.
Sam F. Davis (G3) at Tampa Bay: I was concerned FLAMEAWAY ($22.60) could be the controlling speed of the race, which is why I listed him as my longshot value play. But unfortunately, I did not recommend any wagers on the son of Scat Daddy, so I’ve got absolutely nothing to show for that momentary flash of brilliance! LOL
