Today we’re back at Mountaineer’s rat track, capping average to below colts. Oh, what fun.
Race 7 • 9:30 p.m. ET • Allowance NW4 Pace projection hints at an early speed duel between 1 Baytown Frosty, 6 Baytown Warrior, and 7 Raku Firing. It wouldn’t surprise me in the least if 5 Hiding the Brick gets caught up as well, because he does his best running on the lead. He’s not as fast as the others, though. Closers in the field include 2 Sheltowee's Bali and 4 Speighty War; of the two, Speighty War has the better recent form. He’s hit the board in 8 of 11 career starts. Give me Speighty War on top.
Picks: 4-7-2-3
Best of luck!
