7th Race Selections by K.C.M. THE HORSEPLAYERS JOURNAL
3 STATE TREASURER won three of his first four races last year and was second in the other (The Diplomat final). This term he meets some older
rivals to kick off. I don’t think we can overlook the possibility of a first start victory. He wasn’t one of the leaders in the 3 year old division last year
but good enough to bank more than $230,000 in purses won.
4 MACH DREAMER could have been my number one selection as easy as not. Filion stuck with him and turned down one of Moreau’s racers. I
think the earlier races in the early pick 4 might be better spots to try for a longshot winner. I might only use the top two choices in this final leg of the
four race sequence.
5 UP THE CREDIT drops down into what should be an easier spot if you think that change is what it will take to make him more competitive again.
I’m not going to jump onto his bandwagon just yet but will watch closely and make note for future reference in a race or races down the road a little
ways.
8 STONEBRIDGE ON ICE has the ability to race effectively in the mid-high level money won events but seems to do best in this range. He’s a
playable option to those that are rated highest. You have to at least give him a look when formulating your triactor and superfecta strategy. He has
fooled us in the past.
THE FOLLOWING LISTED IN POST POSITION ORDER
(1) TWIN B IMPRESSIVE made much of his own racing luck last time when he was better than eight rivals. I thought this might be a tougher spot
tonight and rated him cautiously.
(2) SPEED AGAIN has had some near misses this year but hasn’t been able to beat them all on a given night. Sooner or later the goose in the win
column will disappear but I can’t predict it happening this night.
(6) MY MAN CHARLEY steps up every now and then with a winning performance. He did just that two back when competing in a lower
classification. He’s an upset candidate at best.
(7) PEENIE tries for a double but I can’t see him winning again in this spot if the top rated rivals show up to do their best work. He might play a role
in the winning triactor or superfecta combination.
(9) AUTUMN GOTTEM had his string of top three finishes halted last time. A smoother trip tonight might help him to regain that status but he has to
beat post 9.
(10) STOMPIN TOM CREEK does his work from the outside. That is not going to help his chances very much. He’ll need a trip advantage to help
and that might be tough to get from post 10.
