Value Plays
2nd Race #5 Mahina (6-1) $5,000
Completely missed the break from the rail last time out and ended up running really well
finishing third against tougher. Now the drop in class and she puts 2 starts together second off
the bench.
7th Race #3 Oakhurst (6-1) $5,000
Honest fiilly seems to be trending back in the right direction. She's not all that fast early so that
will hurt her overall win record but she's very consistent. She's now making her third start as a
four-year-old and her second start off the bench so we can expect her to take another step
forward here. She kept tough company last year and just feels like a horse who might be a little
underrated.
Don’t Mind Spending up for
1st Race #4 Lottery Pick (5-2) $8,500
This guy shows up just each and every time and he's been really unlucky in his last 2 starts with
brutal troubled trips, due for some racing luck.
4th Race #8 Touchdown Brown (3-1) $8,000
He takes a pretty big drop down in class and he will go second start off a long long lay off. His
form before the layoff back in early 2022 was very good and if he can even get close to that he
should win this race.
