BRIAN’S BEST BET
RACE 1: #2 ON MY DIME
He’s been on a roll since December,
having won half of his last six starts. He’s
been holding his own with some tough
company at Turf Paradise, and he’s proven
very capable of running well on the dirt. At
this point in time, he just seems too fast
for this bunch.
$1 EARLY PICK 4 (races 1-4)
BIG TICKET
2 with 3-1-4-5 with 6-3-7-4
with 2-5-6-4 = $64
LITTLE TICKET

with 2-5-6-4 = $32
$1 LATE PICK 4 (races 8-11)
BIG TICKET
6-7-9 with 2-1 with 7-1-2-5
with 2-11-6-1 = $96
LITTLE TICKET
6-7 with 2-1 with 7-1
with 2-11-6-1 = $32
SPOTLIGHT -- RACE 8
You can find my analysis of today’s Grade III
Derby Trial on ESPN.com, so I’ll take a quick
look at a solid entry-level allowance. Cash
Refund is the type of horse that makes racing
exciting. His debut was scintillating and had me
saying ‘remember that guy!’ When a horse
stops the clock like that in his first start,
there’s no way of knowing what he’s capable
of. He’s been drilling like clockwork about
every 10 days since that effort, and if he runs
back to that or improves at all, look out.
Unbridled Express made an impressive return
off a 2 ½ year layoff when just missing in an
Oaklawn allowance. He’s obviously still
talented, and should move forward. If the top
pick goes backward even a small step, he could
hit the wire first. Broadway Al has been off
since August and makes his first dirt start, but
I love the improving set of drills over
conventional dirt surfaces. It’s possible he’ll
jump forward at a price with the switch here.
