SPA 4th of July Stakes Races

[Trigger]

I'm always ready to get humbled - I know better, thrilled and confident going in, but hey, my ass hurts!

8th - #8 Capitol Hill, went back to his 3/14 race, well today is very similar conditions, but he drops lasix which is a negative, he's also a full bro to a Wood winner!  #4 Zulu is a monster G1,2,3 winner!  #1 Maui Strong as Alvarado last rode the #8 my top selection, the inside spot might help him save ground for a late rally!

9th - #3 Luther - Horse is coming out of the French Derby, was a damn stampede, but only lost by 1.5 secs.

10 - #7 Antiquarian, Pletcher, got a feeling this horse is back in top form and older, and stronger and if so more than capable.

11 - Crazy turf sprint stakes race, can't say I'm nuts about anyone, but after  much back and forth consideration, the #2 Our Shot, #6 Woks For Me, and #8 Axthelm.

Good Luck to Everyone and Happy Forth of July!

Post race...

8th - Capitol Hill is the real deal. Race was a good win for me.  The 8 wins it's bingo bongo time lol, but thank goodness for small favors, 4,8.  Hit every race bet nicely with the exception of win and show, sadly missed out on the multi-legs going forward.

9th - I excuse the horse this Shoemark kid may not be at the level with our top jocks.  Horse (#3) had plenty, wrong jockey.

10th - When JV blew the 1st turn with the #7 my stomach sank, the #1 was awesome, but JV redeemed himself by not giving up and made it a race to the wire.  2nd place was a saver, decent place and exceptional exacta price.

11th - Not even in the ballpark.  #9 was a monster and has to be watched going forward.

Weather looks good everywhere herein was unsure about Prairie Meadows, radar looks like it'll be fast and what I handicapped it as, I could be wrong though!  My budget is just shy of $500 for these 6 races.  Good Luck!

Saratoga 11th - Very good fillies here , some of their broodmare's were champs too.  Could literally make a case for everyone including Nitrogen being the obvious potential winner.  #1 Warming - No lasix, not that much time off  and praying very tight, but capable trainer / Jockey, horse is lightly raced and ties, not royally bred...that last race was unreal the surge, like they were standing still.  If that horse can sustain that for 10 seconds, foughetaboutit! Praying lol! 

Indiana 11th - The locals look great, but I'm going with the others.  #3 Deloraine is a Godolphin owned and the pressure has to be on to keep up their good momentum across all their trainers, Eoin Harty, Mike Smith, nice - capable.  JV on the #1 Sturgeon Moon, off layoff, hopefully Walden a solid % brought her back ready, 15-1 ml, interesting.

Indiana 12th - Coal Battle #3 looks to be improving, and ready to rock and I like him twice as much as the 1, 6, 9 who I'm hoping will tag along.

Prairie Meadows 7th - #4 Magnitude!  I, and others thought he would be the odds on favorite in the KYD, then the injury after his last race.  Focusing on win wager and multi race wagers.

Prairie Meadows 8th - with the #7 scratched whom I loved, I'm liking the #2 Red Route One, 27 starts, $2mil who the heck are these others lol!  Ben Curtis on this one and the previous race, Magnitude too, big dd, p3s for me!

Prairie Meadows 9th - I liked the #2 but scratched, #3 Quickick will likely be a prohibitive favorite kind of the rock star of this field and has raced in multiple Graded stakes, 8 races and $400k under her belt.  Doesn't this # 8 Sayucan look amazing and I hope ready, giving her equal props to the #3! Say - U - Can lol, 3 and 8!
