Saturdays Baby Race(4) at the Big A
 

Ton of interesting twists and angles exist in this race. Lets start with the 1 from a no-name trainer who 8 days ago ran this colt with GG Richards . Ran a sneaky good trip that the charts really do not reflect. Comes back with a + rider switch. At 15-1 worth a play.
The "Chief" sends out the 4 who ran an awful number in his debut with "double bug" Santiago. After two subsequent good works Prado is now aboard. I wonder what this is all about.
Finally the 9 McLaughlin/Garcia (30%) team up with a firster that popped 26 ft stride length in March 2YO in training sale . Fair work tab. Kiaran has a 20% debut number .
1-4-9 are the three I am going to play with:D

Tough race to start the carryover of the pick 6. Baffert's colt looks to show speed with Johnny V. opting for this one, but Coa wins at a 30% clip for Pletcher and this one shows several nice gate drills. Prado and the Chief are zero for nine this year, but this one smells funny after a 35.1 blowout two days ago. I agree McLaughlin may have the winner as this one is likely to run them down through the lane. Mr. Warren only buys about three a year and they always seem to be runners.

Tricky group... How about the Successful Appeal baby from Kimmel?

Yep, he's solid with 2YO's and is hot right now.

I can not disagree about the Pletcher/Coa horse! I really struggled with tossing this one out. I love 1st time Coa mounts..ALWAY a live play ! Work tab is solid .Lets not forget the $600k yearling price tab for a Friends Lake , 40x's the stud fee! BUT I think since Saratoga Todd is punching at 12% rate:..OUCH !:zz:

Baby races should not be discussed here....:eek:











they are my bread and butter

7/2/8 for me:D
