Jessica Pyfer has some live mounts today – could be a big day for her.
LA Times/Union Tribune Value Play:
Race 3: Silent Musketier makes the 2nd start off the layoff for the small barn of Samual Nichols. The last two races going shorter ‘Silent ran on late to just miss. The added distance looks ideal for this closer that has much speed as the favorites and an attractive 15-1 morning line price.
Value Plays for Today:.
Race 1: Sabinos Pride has as much speed as the top choices at 12-1.
Race 5: Eye on Tiger ships in from out of state. Won the debut at this distance on dirt here last year. Top last race speed, sharp works, racing protected 15-1 is juicy.

Typos happen and I do my best not to make them. Always read through my writeups to make sure the posted numbers are correct. I list Pick 4, Pick 5 selections and also a listing of all plays for each race. If there are any differences, please let me know.
*Horses listed in brackets are for added coverage if wanted and for exotics.
For races where I only have one or two selections I usually like to KEY the top choice with the second choice and an outside for trifectas.
When I have three horses selected in a Pick 4 or Pick 5 consider them for Trifecta boxes and for superfecta boxes use the 3 selections with the highest priced horse with good form or top tier jockeys riding, especially if they give a price. Rolling Pick 3 and doubles using selections.

“Bíonn grásta Dé idir an dialait agus an talamh.”
“The grace of God is found between the saddle and the ground.”
