3rd Race Selections by K.C.M. THE HORSEPLAYERS JOURNAL
3 SCARY GOOD won the highest rating with a flip of the coin type decision. I had five different options that I considered more than once before I
was finally able to rate them in order. I cannot say that I am overconfident about the choices as rated. Several look to have a reasonable chance of
finishing in the top three. Note that Zeron had three different options to choose from.
8 BOOGIE WOOGIE has twice disappointed as the race favourite recently. He still has to rate as one of the playable options but the price has to
climb to a higher level to make the return worth the risk. Sooner or late he’ll win again but let’s be careful with him if odds are too low. Post 8 was
rated as a minor factor only.
5 WINE PHOTO can complete a 3-2-1 finish sequence tonight if able to beat them all for his second win of the year. Ritchie gave him an aggressive
drive from post 10 in his latest when only the winner beat him. A similar effort tonight would put him right into the thick of things. He’s a playable
option to those that appear above.
2 LADY AT BAT slides down the class ladder to hit the bottom rung tonight. That change could make the difference. If you use only her best
previous results a case could be made to include her. Let’s see which one Zeron chooses to drive. This gal might get the nod over Scary Good and
Goshen Seelster.
THE FOLLOWING LISTED IN POST POSITION ORDER
(1) ALLCANTAB scares me. This one time high level trotter might follow the lead of stablemate Brewmaster. That trotter surmised at 48-1 on
Monday night. Let’s see what he looks like prior to the race and then decide.
(4) NOISETTE P V might struggle again tonight but if odds are in the longshot range and you are looking for that type of play you could give him
some consideration.
(6) GOSHEN SEELSTER had an eight win record in 2012. That was from a limited 17 start campaign. He finally regained winning form last time
when he was the best at Rideau Carleton. I chose to give preference to four others. That might be a mistake on my part.
(7) IVE GOT IT ALL didn’t look like a candidate that I could recommend highly. He can wait for another night when he might have an improved
result to offer.
(9) LIMITLESS would have looked more appealing had he been luckier in the post position draw and landed a starting position in mid gate or inside.
Post 9 makes him a risky option the way I see it.
(10) CELEBRITY COWBOY lost some of his appeal in the post position drawn. Racing from the outside is not going to help his chances very much
unless he can somehow benefit from a trip advantage.
