Race 4 Runners and Odds Forecast

- 5 Chick’s Shadow, A Suarez, 12/1
- 6 Gogo Shoes, S Spieth, 5/2
- 7 Judy’s Way, D Centeno, 4/1
Race 4 Prediction and Pick
I like Bridge Dancer at 5/1 for this race. Sure, there are three other fillies more favored, but none of those equal or surpass Bridge Dancer’s career starts. Out of nine starts, she’s moneyed in seven, two of which were wins. Veteran jockey Willie Martinez and a near-pole position are, for me, the clinchers here.
Race 4 Tip
The longshots in this race are longshots for a reason, so let’s not go there for this one.

Race 5 Runners and Odds Forecast
- 1 Peaceful Feeling, S Spieth, 9/2
- 2 Haniel, K Mendez, 10/1
- 3 Alydarius, J A Garcia, 20/1
- 4 Clear as Day, A Suarez, 8/1
- 5 Stormy D, R Mena, 4/1
- 6 Itsherluckyday, A Santos, 15/1
- 7 Fashion’s Star, A A Gallardo, 3/1
- 8 Flighty Almighty, D Centeno, 7/2
- 9 Sweetly Maid, G Wales, 10/1
- 10 Uncommon Factor, SCRATCHED
Race 5 Prediction and Pick
Your best bet in this race is the favorite at 3/1, Fashion’s Star. What this filly may lack in record (only two career starts, one of which was a win), she more than makes up with her choice of pilots: ace jockey Antonio Gallardo. Gallardo has a very impressive wins/WPS record, and if he can’t get it done… well, I believe he can.
Race 5 Tip
Sweetly Maid at 10/1 is my pick for the longshot surprise. Out of 22 career starts, she moneyed in 16 of them, and three of those were wins. The only thing that might hold this mare back is a fair-to-middlin’ jockey (Gary Wales) and a post position practically in the parking lot.

- 8 U S Army Corps, A A Gallardo, 7/5
- 9 Big Dreaming, D Centeno, 6/1
- 10 Belushi Samurai, A Quinonez, 30/1
Race 8 Prediction and Pick
The moneyline odds in this race make it appear to be more of a pre-victory party for the 7/5 favorite U S Army Corps, piloted by Antonio Gallardo. Only if this race moves to the main track or there are scratches for some other reasons will it be something very much like a horse race.
Race 8 Tip
Just take the two bucks you had set aside for a longshot and add that to your wager on the favorite. Or keep it in your pocket. Dealer’s choice.
