Charles Town - Race #6

#2 Willie the Whale Looks like a logical alternative to the likely heavy chalk drawn just outside of him, and this guy has pretty reliable form for the level. Chance if the favorite doesn't bring his best.
#3 Unimaginable U He scored easily when trying basement maiden claimers in his local debut, and he looks like the type who has a big claim on a repeat score while trying winners for the first time. The one to beat, but the price won't be anything.
#6 Grandpa Munster His form is hit or miss, but he showed something better last time out, and a similar effort would keep him in the mix for a piece of this. Tough to trust.
Race Summary Willie the Whale is a fairly reliable type, and he has a bit of versatility that should allow him to find a decent trip today.

Charles Town - Race #7

#2 Another Victory There are a couple of potential forward players to hopefully produce a fair pace, as this guy has some finishing ability and almost always runs his race locally with six exacta finishes from nine starts.
#6 Air Token He brings some formidable Laurel running lines with him to this one, and he is probably a handful here if he handles the local footing. Think he'll get bet below the 3/1 ML price.
#7 Final Say He can pass horses from just about anywhere, and he might work out a good trip in midpack behind an honest pace. That 6/1 ML price feels about right.
Race Summary Another Victory is interesting from off the pace, as he owns a solid local record and might have one more step forward in him while making this third start off the bench.

Charles Town - Race #8

#1 True Crossing He figures to show some speed from the inside in a race without a ton of other pace, and this feels like the kind of group he may be able to wire.
#10 Gaming Jack Dropper can be tough here while cutting the tag in half, and he's finding this easier spot while in pretty decent overall form. Beat him to score.
#6 Executive Retreat The last few haven't been much to write home about, but he's not too far removed from some efforts in which he was able to spy and finish -- that kind of trip might serve him well tonight.
Race Summary True Crossing has some pace from the fence and should be able to find the front from there. The 6/1 ML price intrigues.

Santa Anita - Race #1

#2 Cleopatra's Strike Was graded stakes placed last year and can revive his form with this class drop; hasn't run well in quite a while but has a decided class advantage.
#3 Seeking Refuge Was second two races back in the last time he was on this course; is in decent form and can get a piece of this.
#5 Irish Heatwave Likely to be a pace factor and comes in off a mid-pack finish in a restricted stakes race; makes third off the claim for Miller.
Race Summary Cleopatra's Strike should be able to get a reversal in form with this leap down the class ladder and is overdue for a good effort; running at this price should help him out.

Santa Anita - Race #7

#2 Play Chicken Has a good chance to carve out the fractions and can dig in during his first appearance off the claim by Knapp; has been a regular in the Cal-bred stakes races and fits here.
#1 Found My Ball Improved position to fourth in the Echo Eddie Stakes last out and has been in some other good races; stretches out on turf and can be formidable.
#3 Big Talker Has finished with good energy in her last three races and could benefit from a good pace.
Race Summary Play Chicken has the speed to dictate how this develops and can dig in at this price; one to catch.

Santa Anita - Race #8

#2 Girona Looks like the only one in here that has passed horses; while not a deep closer by any means, he can be effective just off this rapid pace and can survive late.
#4 Brilliant Bird Was on the board in his last four and has shown good speed over this strip; fits here.
#1 Luck Be Mine Drops in price off the claim at Turf Paradise and has been in much tougher races than this; the drop is questionable.
Race Summary Girona has enough speed to stay in range and has the finished touch to be successful vs. these.
