Default Del Mar race 7 ....(8-9-18)

Both these favorites run with their head up. Doesn't bother them on their best days. You aren't always gunna get their best day. Sometimes you are gunna need them to run down someone who has had it easy up front. That's when you are gunna wish you didn't rely, solely, on these horses who run with their head up. If one of them wins today, I am betting against them, next time.

Interesting little race. The favorites should be favorites but the 3 with a good start could be sneaky at big odds here up front. Also looking at the 5 and 8 horse. Overall late pick four is a tough one again

I like 2-3. 2 has a half who won on turf and 3 will be tough with a clean break

The 8 (Bobbie Lincoln) sure is an ugly mover. Ellis says she's an overachiever. She does try really hard. If she wins, it will look like an ice box falling off a truck (on a freeway.)

3 horse almost got home at 17_1. Bejarano got Helen's lTiger to relax like in her maiden win on 6-3. She doesn't run high headed from back there. So, if the pace is slower next race (like on 6-16, and 7-20) does she get high headed at even money?
