Below is analysis and picks for today’s feature. I’ve got picks at several tracks for Friday afternoon, spilling into late Friday evening posted over at the Hammer Betting Network here.
Keeneland • Race 8 • Allowance NW3 • Fillies & Mares 3YO+ • 4:44 EST Let’s not mention to anyone that we’re bullish on the Brad Cox-trained 1 Saranya being ridden by HOF jockey John Velazquez today. Will we get anything near the morning line of 20-1? Probably not. But double-digit odds are not out of the question. Is it as simple as taking this horse across the board? I think so. Two other interesting horses to box with Saranya are 2 Arm Candy and 10 Princess Fawzia. Arm Candy is trained by Steve Asmussen and may get overlooked simply because this race is on turf rather than dirt. Princess Fawzia has hit the board in 11 of 18 career starts. 8.5 furlongs is her preferred distance. If these odds hold, we could get a nice exacta payout.
Picks: 1-10-2-4
Best of luck!
