LA Times Value Play:
Race 2: Rossman won last out at this distance at Golden Gate for trainer Hector Palma who is 2 of 7 at the meet. 1st off the claim there are some sharp works since the October victory including a best of the day workout on Wednesday. That last race saw the 2nd and 3rd place finishers return to win next out. The 8-1 morning line price seems too good to be true. I can see this horse going favorite.

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.
