Horses To Watch
Our exclusive free list of horses that can improve greatly in their next starts while likely being overlooked by the betting public. Often times when horses run into trouble in a horse race they tend to improve their figures in their next starts. Since most of the betting public is some version of traditional past performances to handicap the trouble the horse experienced in the race may not be reflected in the points of call or position throughout the race. Learning to "read between the lines" and understanding the true reason a horse may not have performed well in a race can pay huge dividends at the betting window. The Horses To Watch List can help guide you in learning to read between the lines and uncover those overlooked bombs that payout big!
Comebacker made his sprint debut today and this may have been a prep. While he was away slowly, he was rushed up to settle behind the leaders up the backstretch and moved to the outside as then entered the turn. The soph couldn’t keep up with the two leaders in the stretch, but he did […]
Six year old gelding for Peter Miller, off since last July at Del Mar, tried the hill in the Sensational Stars stakes on Sunday for older Cal breds. Off at 8/1 in a field of just five, he was last coming down the hill, six back of the leaders. J.J. had a decision to make […]
Not a bad effort for the comebacker as her and the rest of the field was no match for up-and-comer Grannys Connection. This filly chased the winner entering the stretch and was run down late for the second spot. Still, she can move forward with recency and against what may be a softer group for […]
Three year old filly for Bob Baffert made her debut on Saturday in a maiden special weight affair at six and a half on the main. Off at 9/2 in a field of 7, she made the running right from the get go and dueled for the early lead through fractions of 22.04 and 44.96 […]
This win machine from the softer circuits didn’t embarrass herself in this Stakes event as she sat behind the four horse duel up the backstretch. She was behind a wall of runners entering the stretch, but did find clear sailing soon after and rallied on the slower outside. The filly does have a tendency to […]
A gelding who was awful in his last two starts may have been the winner in this affair if not for a wide-throughout trip over a track that favored the inside. He did show his usual early speed as a four horse duel developed as they left the chute and he was in the five-path […]
Had a wide trip throughout when the inside seemed to be the faster part of the track . He made his bid around the far turn while still in the three-path and was able to gain ground to finish 3rd. A fairer track and a better trip can only help in his next start. Next […]
Three year old filly for Mike McCarthy made start #2 in Saturday’s opener and first since last August in this maiden special weight event at five and a half on the turf. She was bumped around at the start, but was challenging for the lead by the half mile pole, through awfully quick fractions of […]
Three year old gelding for Dean Pederson, a Turfdom Best Bet on the day, faced 13 others in a maiden claimer for sophomore Cal breds at ¾ on the main Friday. He broke running from the gate under Cedillo and had one length on this large field by the half mile pole, through moderate fractions […]
Comebacker may have been prepping in this sprint as both of her wins have been routes. She was asked for early speed and was hustled out aggressively by her jock. The filly was able to set the pace with three other runners pressing her up the backstretch, but she was caught entering the stretch and […]
A change of tactics were used here as the filly sat in midpack early. Her jock is not exactly the strongest of riders, but she did well to run on late to finish 3rd and maybe she is best as a laterunner. If so, then maybe she can graduate in her next start especially with […]
The Jones barn often places their runners in tough spots, but this gelding did have a legit chance today. He tracked the pace along the rail up the backstretch and around the turn. However, he was stuck behind a wall of horses as they entered the stretch and had to be reined back by the […]
Three year old colt for Doug O’Neill had a bit of bad luck on Saturday in this $50,000 maiden claimer for sophomores at 9 furlongs on the main. Off at 2/1 in a field of 8 in a race taken off the grass, he broke from the extreme outside and wasn’t quite ready to go […]
On a day where passing horses in the stretch was pretty tough, this guy found himself in the back of the pack early. He started to pick off runners entering the turn and just did get up for 2nd while no match for the winner. A fairer track and a better placing early might help […]
Three year old gelding for Jerry Wallace, away from the races since early November, made start #3 on Saturday in a starter allowance non winners twice at ¾ on the main on a track rated as good. Off as the longest price in the race at 11/1, he broke OK under Bravo and sat third […]
