Title: SPA Day XXXI, Thursday, 8/21/25
Post by: Trigger on August 21, 2025, 02:15:28 AM
The SPA track condition left off today Muddy and off the Turf, not sure how the track is absorbing / drying out and will be listed tomorrow but the forecast is beautiful, low to mid 70's virtually no chance of rain and even a nice light breeze.  I'm going to guess fast dirt, and good turf, but again I'm going to wait.

So when the track condition and scratches come out I'll then handicap and likely wager, and I'm aiming for the two stakes in the 3rd & 9th, both on the dirt, and a maiden special weight also on the dirt, race 6.  Additionally I'm following horses landing in The Meadows races 2 & 8, Harrah's Chester, race 15, and both those harness tracks should be fast.

In looking ahead, quite a nice line up of stakes races and top flight horses racing...

Friday at Mohawk Sucker Track, Charles Town and the SPA.

Saturday at Batavia, Scioto, Mohawk Sucker Track and the SPA

Sunday at Tioga, and minor stakes at Monmouth, Del Mar, Ellis, Woodbine, and the SPA.

See ya tomorrow, and Good Luck!  ;D

Good luck to everyone today. I'm not sure if I'll play the Spa today, depends on on/off turf and scratches

Thank you.

Carmouche is not a turf guy but on a turf sprint I think their stats must be fairly disproportional (better) to their to their turf routes.  Trainer is 12% on the turf to 6% on the dirt.  Owner is kind of a zero, so 7-1 is very low odds for that bunch.

What's up with these Mohawk idiots like Young, you make your move uncovered follow up uncovered, the horse is shaky, you don't want to be hitting the break and then 3 wide.

I'll tell you, no brains is abound there.  ngc3
