Mountaineer race #8

There is a lot going on in this race . The 1 and 3 are fast horses, but they both taking a jump in class, and I don't think they will be able to run their race here. The 6 only has one race on the dirt, and didn't do well, also he really hasn't done much at all recently. The 5 is interesting, he seems to run fast, but on off tracks and the turf. On a fast dirt surface he cannot keep up with the other horses in this race. The contenders are the 2, 4, and 7. I feel the 7 will be setting the pace, and even though he is not a contender the 3 will be pushing him. I think the 4 will come late, and take the race. My picks would be 4 and 7.

Finger Lakes Race 3

It is easy to center on 8 as the speed. I think he will get the lead but at what cost? Bob and George I agree with your call on 8. Any concerns coming from that outside spot running only 5.5. The turn comes relatively fast. Not as bad as 5 furlongs but......

If he is scratched the race is nothing. I think I will wait to see odds but I would be interested in your thoughts on the above.

I can see the 8 getting clear, or at worse the 2 path by the turn. This is the second race off the lay off, and the freshening race was at a higher class. The horse inside of him that could keep him from the rail is the 4, and even that horse on a fast track was 2 lengths back of a 22.1, so the 8 if he runs his race should be clear. This is racing though so anything can happen

Delaware race #4

The 4 is scratched in this race, but I don't think that is going to effect my picks so I will stay with the 6 and 7

Scratches

No scratches at FL
Scratch #4 in race 4 at Delaware (I don't think Delaware is in Ohio!)
