Betting with Bobby - March 13, 2026
This is betting with Bobby on the horse racing radio network.
We're into the stretch of the Florida Derby and Dunkirk has taken the lead on the outside.
Quality road battles right back with him.
There goes JoJo checked out of the restart. Quality road has come back inside of Dunkirk and he's opening up late.
Here is a superstar quality road. What's it?
Dunkirk is second. There goes JoJo and stately character.
And that's another track record. One minute 47.72 seconds.
Now here is Bobby Newman.
Good afternoon. Welcome to betting with Bobby here on the horse racing radio network part of Virginia thoroughbred week presented by the Virginia equine alliance.
Let's head straight out to Santa Anita Park. Fast and firm conditions. They're going a mile and an eighth on the grass and race one on this Friday card condition claiming event for four year olds and up in for a $30,000 tag. Here's Frank Miramati.
And they're off.
The geometry is very quick. So is Jim mint 10 and those two will lead through the stretch the first time.
Promecio in third and smooth salute four off the pace in fourth. Empires classic at the back of the field.
They string out into single file already with geometry. The favorite in charge leads at a length and a half.
Jim mint 10's pretty eager in second and other three. Promecio third. Smooth salute five off the pace and seven or eight more back to empires classic into the first turn Antonio Fresu and geometry.
Clear by two lengths. Jim mint 10 remains second. Another three now back to Promecio third for clear of smooth salute.
And empires classic is a dozen lengths off the pace geometry onto the back stretch three parts of the length. Jim mint 10 trying to keep him honest and doing just that second.
Another two back to Promecio who's been cruising along in third. Four more smooth salute empires classic is underway. He was far back earlier now within seven or eight from geometry.
Geometry into the far turn the controlling speed maintains the two length advantage. Jim mint 10 set down now once again trying to close that gap within a half length of them.
Then Promecio in third empires classic smooth salute a quarter of a mile to go and Jim mint 10 is on even terms with geometry.
Now they're joined by Promecio who's had the dream trip and he's coming after them now with one furlong to go empires classic angles to the center of the course geometry under pressure.
Promecio between an empires classic is rolling down the center of the courts empires classic in full flight after geometry geometry empires classic.
Here is the line geometry held on empires classic just miss smooth salute on the photo for third.
Unofficially four one two in the opener at Santa Anita number four geometry with Antonio Freysu aboard just holding off the one empires classic and cast Camara who were surging in the late stages but in the end geometry did hold for Jonathan Thomas and Antonio Freysu mile and eight covered in 147 and two geometry was the odds on favorite eight to five on the morning line but four to five at post time and needed.
All his effort to hold on and get the win and the chalk better is rejoicing the opener at Santa Anita geometry unofficially the winner at Santa Anita once again welcome back to another addition of betting with Bobby here on HR and this is Virginia thoroughbred week presented by the Virginia equine alliance in addition to racing from Santa Anita today will be bringing live action from Gulfstream oak lawn fairgrounds and aqueduct and we've got at least 10 minutes or so before our next live race.
By the way as we open the show we heard the stretch run of a pretty good Virginia bread in his own right quality road winning the 2009 Florida Derby unfortunately we did not get to see quality road.
Try the Kentucky Derby he got hurt after his Florida Derby victory won the fountain of youth he won the Florida Derby that year and he would have been the favorite or certainly one of the two favorites in the 2009 Kentucky Derby but unfortunately he didn't run in that race.
Came back in the Amsterdam later that year in August and went on to win that and he was a really good three year old maybe even better as a four year old winning three grade ones the Don handicap which is now known as the Pegasus the Met Mile and the Woodward all in all the Virginia bed quality road who was by elusive quality out of a strawberry road mayor won eight times in 13 career starts for owner Ed Evans and trainer Todd Plescher and quality road just one of many Virginia birds.
Many Virginia bread or Virginia certified runners that we are celebrating all week here on HR and of course a big day tomorrow in the great state of Virginia.
It is Virginia Derby day for many many years the Virginia Derby was a race that was won in the run in the late summer early fall during the quote unquote regular meat at colonial downs and it was a turf race for many many years and had some really good turf horses win the race over the years.
But Churchill downs which now owns colonial decided that they wanted to change things up and in accordance with the laws in order to have for for every for every I think of one hundred I don't want to call them slot machines because they're technically not slot machine they were the video terminals gaming terminals whatever the proper term is now because none of these.
Machines are slot machines they don't spit out coins anymore but for every hundred machines they have to have a race day in Virginia and there are a lot of five thousand machines at colonial or Rosie's gaming which is there so they need to run 50 days during the year they'll have a 47 day meat in the late summer early fall and they have a special three day meat yesterday today and tomorrow all dirt.
Including the half million dollar Virginia Derby which is a mile at an eight for three year olds tomorrow and is a Kentucky Derby points qualifier it's the last 50 pointer on the road to this year's Kentucky Derby so if things go the way they have in previous years whoever wins the Virginia Derby tomorrow will likely have enough points to qualify for this year's Kentucky Derby the Virginia Derby one of I believe five stakes on the card at colonial tomorrow.
Tomorrow Bob Nostanovich and I will go over four of those five stakes as part of our am we do weekend stakes preview coming up at six p.m. tonight speaking of the Kentucky Derby Kentucky Derby future pool number five is open the Oaks pool is open as well they opened I think at noon today Derby pool goes through six p.m. on Sunday that's Eastern time Oaks pool I think maybe to six thirty Eastern they've also got that Oaks Derby double future that's something you're interested in.
Early on there's only about thirty thousand dollars bet in Derby future pool number five as of right now and the favorite at this point is renegade he was twenty to one on the morning line he's eight to one right now is the Sam F Davis junior winner.
And then both Cherokee nation and chief wallaby are just behind him at nine to one you say well what about the horses who were favored on the morning line paladin was five to one favorite on the lines thirteen to one right now commandment was the second choice at six to one he's up to twelve to one and nearly was the third choice at eight to one he's up at fourteen to one so you're getting decent prices on everyone when the favorites eight to one they're telling you're getting to do some price now this is titled a future.
It is not a true future wager like what you're seeing if you go to Las Vegas and make a bet if you make a bet on a anything a future bet in Las Vegas whether it's horse racing or sports or whatever you get the odds at the time of what you bet it.
For instance you know if you're betting you know if you if you want to bet let's say the Dodgers to win the world series and they're even money I don't know what the price is on the Dodgers I'm making this up and you want to bet them at even money if you bet them today it doesn't matter what happens the rest of the wagering you get even money if they happen to win the world series same with horses if you bet let's say paladin today in Vegas.
And he's six to one today you get six to one doesn't matter how many more dollars are on or against paladin at whatever racebook you decide to bet at but with this Churchill pool it all depends it all matters on what the final price is six p.m. on Sunday it's a future wager yes but it's a paramutual future you know a future wager in the fact that they are.
You know adjusting odds this and that and you know if a big bet comes in on your horse at five forty five on Sunday you don't get the price that you bet them today you get the price the lower price on Sunday of course they can go the other way as well there could be a big bet on somebody Sunday and your eight to one on renegade today could be up to 12 to one on Sunday so it is a future wager it's not exactly the kind that you're used to if you're playing the one.
And so unless you have a chain if you want to play these Kentucky Derby future wagers I'm not telling you not to do it but if you have the chance to wait until late afternoon on Sunday that's the better option for you because you have a much better chance of seeing what odds you're going to get it's a little too early now to know where the money is going to go and as I said there's only thirty thousand dollars bet in the pool right now which is not a whole lot.
All right let's take a break when we come back I'll get you paid at San Anita they're on the track for the sixth at Oakland we've got about six minutes there we're about oh I would say 10 minutes away from both the seventh and aqueduct and the sixth fairgrounds we've got Gulf Stream action on the way as well this is betting with Bobby on HR and.

Whitmore's last right now with more at the quarter pole is sixth and last and five and a half links behind smart spree smart spree at the top of the stretch.
He has now extended his lead to two lengths from wind time in second will pose in the center with more got to go he's still five links behind and smart sprees inside the
long marker wind time is alongside smart spree going to have to dig down now Whitmore explodes in the center of the track and
look at him fly Whitmore has to go and he did wow that is a major league stretch run Whitmore wins the count fleet it is close for
second between will bow and wind time.
Bigst offer on the call of the 2018 edition of the count fleet sprint at Oclon won by the great Whitmore he actually won
that race three times in 17 18 and 20 by the way ran second in 2019 but in 18 not only did he win that race he
would go on to run second in the Breeders Cup sprint he would eventually win the Breeders Cup sprint in 2020 on route to
being the eclipse award champion sprinter of that year male champion sprinter that is overall Whitmore with 15
career wins from 43 starts banked over 4.5 million dollars in his career and it's nice that they have a state named in his
honor tomorrow out at Oclon park welcome back betting with Bobby here on HRRN part of Virginia thoroughbred week all week long presented by the
Virginia equine alliance speaking of Oclon park there about two minutes away from post time for race six on the card at Oclon 70
degrees sunny skies and a fast track at Oclon right now and race six is at six furlongs this is a condition to claiming event
Phillies and mayors non winners of two races since November 13th of last year they're in for a 26 thousand dollar
claiming price this is a weird condition not just the fact that it's non winners of two races in the last four
months but where did they come up with a claiming price of 26 thousand dollars I mean I've seen plenty of 25 thousand
dollars claimers every now and then you'll see a 30 certainly 32 26 I'm not sure if I've seen a 26 I wonder what the how they decided that
that was the correct number that they should have for this claiming price but that's where they are field of eight going through the
motions of their warm ups for this race two to one favorite at this point is number four promises to dance for
this and at Francisco area to promises to dance coming off a second place finish against 30 thousand dollar
claimers last time out now in a conditioned 26 thousand dollar claimer I don't even know it sounds like this is a
dropping class I don't even know really if it is claimed away from mic maker out of her last start and goes for
that's mic makers having a good mate and to put it mildly Wayne Pots is not having a very good meet just two wins I believe from 28
starters at the current meet but picks up hot riding Francisco area to who among other things I think had three
wins on yesterday's card and promises to dance certainly off her last effort in fact her last four or five races speed
out of five are all good enough to make her at least one of the ones to beat in this spot the six September magic is the
second choice at five to two for Thomas Amos and Ramon Vasquez this one definitely taking a drop in class her last three
starts have been against a allowance competition last time she ran for a tag it was on the main track at
mainland in for a thirty two thousand dollar tag and she ran second during last falls keenland meet and in general I
would think that the racing at keenland is as tough if not tougher than most of the racing that we have in this
country so September magic is proven against what maybe tougher that she's pretty good in and around this
level and on the dirt third choice is number one tell me when for ray ash for junior and Tyler bacon wire to wire
victory against starter allowance competition in her most recent start she is very capable of running back to back good races
overall in fact she's won nine times from 29 career stars and she is looks like one way to go and that's right to the
lead right off the back so they're going to the gate over at oak lawn after this will head to either aqueduct or
fairgrounds they're both listed as three minutes away from post time fairgrounds rarely gets to the gate right
at post time and aqueduct horses are still in the paddock and I don't even see the jockies yet so I don't
know if they could possibly get to the gate in three minutes so we'll just have to play it by here and see who
wants to go first meanwhile we know that oak lawn is trying to go before both of them they have started the
loading process on what is a beautiful Friday afternoon in hot springs Arkansas six furlongs the
distance here for ray six on the card fillies and mayors in for a 26 thousand dollar tag you heard that
correct favorites remain remain promises to dance September magic and tell me when not necessarily in that
order last few are going in here's Matt Dennerman we're ready to go and
larry off from the inside tell me when showing her customary front running speed and
insightful miss pumped upon takes the second spot now promises to dance in a good tracking
position third September magic to the outside then brave Samantha flat out rows there five
off the pace three clear of flat out rows and a gap of two to Miranda's rocky who's the trailer down the
backstretch they go tell me when is the leader by a half length here insightful miss pressing from the
outside promises to dance racing alone in third she's two behind as they go into the
turn a gap of four progeny finds herself on the rail attempts to get closer September magic pumped
upon a bit with five sixteenths to go joining that one three back to brave Samantha flat out
rows is given way Miranda's rocky trying to come on from last takes the sixth position she's on the
move as they hit the quarter pole here back to the lead tell me when insightful miss stride for stride
coming off the quarter here outside insightful miss has got a nose in front tell me when to
the inside trying to come on here progeny making a move for outside is Miranda's rocky
sixteenth to go insightful miss still on top goes for home leads by two Miranda's rocky coming on
down the center here comes Miranda's rocky to get up in the shadow of the wire Miranda's rocky over
insightful miss promises to dance in progeny on officially eight three six the top three in
the six at oak lawn park number eight Miranda's rocky getting up in the shadow of the wire for the
dream of Tom Vance and Walter Dela Cruz Miranda's rocky who did not do very well against condition
twenty thousand dollar claimers in her most recent start steps up at least it seems like a notch in
competition today doesn't seem to bother her she scores and scores at what looks like a nice
price Miranda's rocky was ten to one on the morning line will check the final odds in just a
moment meanwhile we're going to look at both fairgrounds and aqueduct because I don't know who's
getting to the gate first they're they're hustling to gated aqueduct straight from the paddock to
the gate and they're moving on to the turf course at fairgrounds fairgrounds at seventy one
degrees sunny skies main track fast turf course good they're on the turf for race six mile on
the turf these are maiden fillies and mayors scratch number ten lit up who is listed as
main track only field of nine here couple of seven to two shots inside and outside runners one
royal ascot and nine Tarzana Tarzana actually is the first time starter for Brad Cox with
Salino Pedroza board they're loading first at fairgrounds after this will go to aqueduct where it's
forty one degrees under cloudy skies the track is listed good at aqueduct race seven is six and a
half furlongs on the main track a starter allowance event for New York bread fillies and mayors scratch
numbers one and three we've got a three to five shot right now in the six Irish Jackson but looks
going to be going first at fairgrounds just about all set last one to load will be that first time
starter number nine Tarzana who's inching forward here's John Dooley for a turf mile good luck
they're in the gate and they're off good conduct was away well to come early bids by Buckeye
bombshell and right there is sunshine daydream as they make the way toward the first turn and
Galatina joins with the rail so with Hunteria Galatina to the early lead at the six and a half
with close-up sunshine daydream with Buckeye bombshell in the green cap running a third as these
made in fillies mayors go to the back of the course King Gal was running fourth of nine here
in the turf mile and good conduct is next in a burgundy cap that comes all lots with proper
property the good alpha newcomer Tarzana running second to last and royal ascotrails 23.23 for
the lead part and it's Galatina so Galatina dictates terms here 25 to one for the run past the half-mile
pole Galatina leads by two and a half sunshine daydream continues to track her for Ben Curtis
to break a three more to King Gal who's just in third from Buckeye bombshell with the rail good
conducts running in fifth all outs in sixth that goes private property in seventh Tarzana leads one
that's well ask it remains last of all the half-mile 47.77 seconds Galatina still to track down
as sunshine daydream now quickens the rope as they come toward the top of the stretch it's
sunshine daydream who's made a move and sunshine daydream wide but taking charge off the turn
as they come down to the final quarter of a mile three quarters in one at 12.96 seconds the leader
is sunshine daydream she has a six length margin with one for long to go from private property who
second and staying on Galatina's back in third Buckeye bombshellent all outs with a belated bid
but with Ben Curtis it's sunshine daydream trying to hold private property and she does sunshine
daydream in a driving finish over private property all outs was third then Buckeye bombshellent
Galatina they were next across the finish 854 in the sixth at fairgrounds let's go to aqueduct they
just left the gate speed towards the inside here is timmia on the front end is challenged by
cloudy chance in these two now head and head in the early stages just off of them will of a
woman was off a step slow moving forward has taken third as to the inside here of iris Jackson the

here from timmia who's gonna take back a little they're five lengths in front of another pair
that's will of a woman who's still to the inside here of iris Jackson they travel in tandem
fee fee the fume still at the back end of the field 22.34 for that pressure at opening quarter
mile and cloudy chance has the lead cloudy chance up by a half length all into the outside timmia
is trying to make up ground will of a woman has dropped back quickly is now at the back end of
the field is here comes a run from fee fee the fume out wider with iris Jackson they're approaching
the top of the stretch 45.20 for a half mile time and cloudy chance is still there cloudy chance
now gets the cue to put this race away but timmia continues to give game chase timmia is chasing
cloudy chance they've been that way throughout inside the final furlong iris Jackson starts to
make up some late ground but a sixteenth left to go it's cloudy chance still in front cloudy
chance almost home cloudy chance will win it cloudy chance over iris Jackson then came timmia
and fee fee the fume woman at 17.7 seven seconds two six four seven the top four in the
seventh race at aqueduct number two cloudy chance opening up two big of a lead for the others
in the stretch and never really threatened at all she was about two and a half lengths in front
maybe three lengths in front as they straightened away the answer made it sound like somebody was
trying to close nobody was closing and I think she won by four or five seven to two the price
on cloudy chance for hose lascano and chris angle heart unofficial winner of race seven at
aqueduct let's get to gulf stream park for the first time today been raining on and off here in
south florid fact it's supposed to rain all weekend here in south florid if you're planning to play
the races in south florida this weekend I would not be surprised if they are off the turf every day
right now it's 77 degrees there are thunderstorms on and off
and they're on the synthetic track a scheduled synthetic track race for race number eight they're off
the turf by the way all day at gulf stream today race eight on the card five furlongs the
distance seventeen thousand five hundred dollars the claiming price here these are three year old fillies
scratch numbers one two four eight nine and eleven eleven of them entered on a synthetic track race
and six of them came out that is not supposed to happen four to five favorite right now is number
ten nacho problem for the team of Brad Cox and Tyler Gaffleo nacho problem has been trying the
turf the last seven starts of her career with moderate success she has never run on a synthetic
surface of course a lot of people think that horses who run well on the turf run well on the
synth and vice versa I would say nothing is a hundred percent but yeah a lot of the time that is
accurate accurate and nacho problem who to my knowledge has never worked on the synth will be
trying it for the first time and Tyler Gaffleo aboard this daughter of waiting who's out of a
brethren mayor once again seventeen five the price here that's another weird one I don't know how
they came up with these you know ten thousand was a normal claiming price twelve five was one sixteen
twenty twenty five why did tracks start doing these like seventeen five twenty six thousand
just odd I wonder they're they're I can't imagine it's just a random decision to do that there must
be some sort of a formula that they've come up with that that is the number they want to look at
for the right claiming price I don't know it's weird whatever it is and even money now the price
on nacho problem second choice is number seven win rusky for Dave bratty and yolbert torres coming
off a nice third place finish at this distance and level on the synth just last month once again
five furlongs on the synthetic surface for race eight at Gulf Stream Park Pete iElla will have the call
that's when rusky who's fractious in the gate at least when rusky might be more than just her
all right you heard it there you we could actually see number seven win rusky try to false break
she tried to break when the gates weren't open and then slammed on the brakes and actually
reared up and the rider came off the back and I think win rusky is now come out of the starting gate the
other fillies are standing there for them for the time being they're still in the gate and I'm
guessing that the track vet is looking at win rusky and as I say that they are now backing other
runners out of the starting gate so we are going to have a slight delay before the eighth race
at Gulf Stream I will keep an eye on that while we have a chance let's get the prices in for

sired maiden three four and five year olds in for a twelve five tag scratch number five go
trigger cut we've got an even money favored in the six irish element he is old for eleven coming
into this race today but even money to get the job done this afternoon he can win but it will be
without me this does not look like an even money shot that i have any interest in wadering on but
kind of tells you what the competition is here he looks like he's better than this field hard to
really say there's a first time starter in the seven silver smith or might mccarthy who's
showing decent works but uh... irish element most of the race and sees run make him the one to be
here's frank and they're off very tardy beginning for broms mendelsen
it's a good one for next trick who's going out for the lead with Rachel's gig those two vie
for command into the first turn a very erratic broms mendelsen will now try a six wide move
into the first turn in the meantime stage run comes through at the rail he didn't have much early
speed but is in the thick of it now third and two lengths off the leader irish element is
for followed by silver smith and then comes broms mendelsen at the back of the field it has not
been a fun opening quarter mile or so for him they run down the back stretch and it's next trick
to the five eighth pole leading half a length over irish element in second at the rail stage run
a joint third coming to the half mile pole and silver smith just outside of him
Rachel's gig is in between those two and broms mendelsen trails into the far turn next trick
irish element the odds on choice alongside second two more come over gets after stage run trying
to keep pace third broms mendelsen takes forth he's now four lengths off them leaving Rachel's
gig and silver smith at the back a quarter of a mile to go and irish element in next trick
or four lengths clear stage run guided to the center of the track but not making any headway
then broms mendelsen they're coming to the eighth pole and it's irish element in a stubborn next
trick fighting him all the way irish elements in front though has it a little more than half a
length now over next trick who tried his best but will just complete the exact behind the popular
irish element who was simply too strong wins by three lengths next trick second stage run third
broms mendelsen for it and officially six three two the top three and race two at san anita
favorite just too much for the field this afternoon number six irish element he went the
mile in 139 and three and still won by daylight and was probably about 10 clear of the third place
finish or not the strongest maiden field we've ever seen at san anita but that doesn't matter to
the folks who bet irish element because he unofficially gets the job done at a short price all right
let's take a break we come back we'll get you paid at gallstream they just went official for
their eighth race we'll make it official at san anita we've got live action from oak on fair

where we are next we're just coming on to the track we've got about five minutes to post

just a few minutes behind at aqueduct so we've got a few minutes before all of them hopefully we

up next will be trainer talk lees allewis sitting down with mike pen on this year this week's edition
of trainer talk which airs from five to six p.m. tonight and i'll be back from six to seven with
bob in the stand of it for another edition of the amwager weekend steaks preview we've got twelve
races we're going to talk about tonight uh... three bagger tomorrow at golf stream park we're going
about talk about four steaks at colonial downs including this year's virginia derby uh... they've
got steaks post saturday and sunday at san anita couple of night steaks tomorrow at oakland
and might even throw in the jimmy winkfield from aqueduct as well uh... speaking of tomorrow at
golf stream park the hudgeson is one of three steaks uh... scheduled for tomorrow the hudgeson
at one point was a very important race uh... on the road to the florida derby and perhaps even the
Kentucky derby and i would say it had its heyday somewhere from like the late seventies all the way
through the mid nineties when horses like spectacular bid and swale both won the races early on in
their three-year-old campaign and of course they would go on to win their
respective Kentucky derbies uh... but you heard holy bulls win ninety four house buster who was a
two-year-old champ uh... wanted as a three-year-old and ninety uh... i'm not a two-year-old champ fly so
free was a two-year-old champ one at ninety one house buster was a just a fantastic sprinter uh... for
jimmy crow one at nineteen ninety uh... frisk me now who was a big long shot when he won it in the mid
to late nineties but turned out to be a really good horse won the race as well and horses like
more than ready in yana guska who were really really good horses during their time got the job done
but uh... unfortunately the folks that uh... make the decisions at Gulfstream park have moved it into
a spot where uh... is basically a non-race it went from being a great to in its heyday and having
Kentucky derby contenders slash winners run in the race to now it's just kind of an afterthought
three-year-old stake during the late winter time at Gulfstream park it's not graded anymore
it's not used on the floor to derby trail uh... you know they've got the moochomacho man they've
got the holy bull they've got the fountain of youth and then they got the floor to derby well
somewhere in their races like the hutches in in the swale
used to matter and to be perfectly honest
they don't at least not much anymore as they used to so uh... it's now at least for like the
last five years or so it's been a listed stake and not a great at stake and that's where we are
right now but it is a fun race tomorrow at Gulfstream park and as i said one of twelve
that bob in the stand of it tonight will discuss as part of our m wage or weekend strikes preview as
far as holy bull goes well i mean he's one of the best ones in several one the hutches and no
he didn't win the Kentucky derby but he did win thirteen of his sixteen career starts he was a
champion three-year-old and ninety-four he was actually horse of the year that way as well
and a hall of fame inductee in two thousand one oh and by the way he's the favorite horse
of our good friend mike penning he continues to say that uh... if holy bull would not have gotten hurt
cigar would never have been cigar and maybe he's right maybe he's not uh... let's get back to
the live action today take a look what's coming up at both fairgrounds and oak lawn they're going to
get to the gate fairly same time uh... which is not great for us seventh race at fairgrounds is a
straight maiden event for three-year-old fillies sprinting six furlongs scratch number seven
nightmare fuel just a field of six here seven to five the price on number two Lakota lady
perpressed in ferris and marcellino pedrosa junior Lakota lady ran once sprinting six furlongs
at fairgrounds against the same level of competition she was sent off thirteen to one that day and
only got beat a half a length that afternoon by good all who i know has a chance in one of the
stakes that we're going to talk about uh... later on tonight so Lakota lady ran very well into
feet she was well clear the rest of the field that day uh... and now uh... she is going to get
for the first time in her career she is even money as they approach the starting gate meanwhile
over at oak lawn park seven threes on their card is a mile of which is two turns at oak lawn fifty
thousand dollars the claiming tag these are older horses four-year-olds enough field of eight in
this spot number three it's in my blood for tom amus and rafael bay harano coming off a nice
winning it's thirty five thousand dollar claimers going the mile at oak lawn in his most recent
start one that race by almost two takes the next step up to the fifty thousand dollar claiming
ranks uh... this afternoon and he's a little bit of a win machine he's one five out of his fourteen
starts looks like we're going to get to fairgrounds first then oak lawn then aqueduct as they're
just about all loaded in for the seventh race at fairgrounds short but sweet field of six sprinting
six furlongs few first-time starters in the field few with experience Lakota lady remains
the solid favorite breaking from post position number two uh... you've got first-time starters in
the three humble toad four be the light and six fast gun all taking a little money as well
but they're going to have to run to beat Lakota lady if she runs the same type of race today
that she didn't her debut and that's certainly a big if it's not necessarily what it's going to
what's going to happen i really don't know anything about her trainer pressed in ferris other
than pressed in ferris is old for thirteen at the meet and is only had thirteen starter since the
beginning of last year i don't know if pressed in ferris is ever won a race i honestly don't know
anything about this person but uh... certainly uh... wishing pressed in ferris all the luck with Lakota
lady today see if they can get the right trip having a little trouble getting the five nut bush
city into the gate i did not make up that name nut bush city a second-time starter for
Brett Calhoun who ran behind Lakota lady in that race on february 14th all be it uh... about five
lengths behind her and she's not really wanting to go in the gate now jockey axel concepts the
owners hopped off as they try to get her in while this is all taking place they're actually
getting to the gate at oak lawn so uh... it seemed like we'd would able to get the
seventh at fairgrounds in gate to wire before they'd even go into the gate over at oak lawn park
and that's not happening they've actually started loading in at oak lawn as well
and now unfortunately these two races are going to run right on top of each other
um... all things being equal they both got one horse left to load
let's stick with fairgrounds just because it's a shorter race meanwhile they're all in at oak lawn
and they're almost all in at fairgrounds we'll try to get fairgrounds to you in its entirety
and then pick up the oak lawn race and progress here's john duly
mine
and the ruff not bush city with an alert start an early bid toward the inside by ages and right
there is the codel lady and uh... humble toad also showing early interest as they go up the back
and it's the codel lady was emerged in front of humble toad and the grain ages is right there
the top three making this move past the half mile pole toward the inside
is the godolphin first year be the light in the royal blue as they answer the far turn
joined on the outside by nut bush city and fast gun the back three quarter 21 point 47
and there's three for longs to go the codel lady just needs humble toad who is right there on
the outside of the codel lady and these two uneven terms coming toward the top of the stretch
to clear from ages who strains away in third from be the light from fast gun and nut bush city
but is dropped back these made in fillies come for home to the final quarter of a mile 44.52
for the second part ages with a run one for long to go it's ages and humble toad add these two
fillies come together for a final sixteenth clash it's ages racing outside of humble toad
as they come inside these final yards ages and humble toad who will it be ages humble toad
it's down to them humble toad for hosiertees humble toad turn back ages bevel life third and
fast gun finish fourth well clear let's quickly get to oak lawn they're coming down in the final
fur long
oops very tight spoiler outside got a better bob than fourth sand but it was very very tight
with classic legacy right behind third well we heard him right as they came to the wire
at oak lawn park and it was a photo finish between numbers two and seven in that race really don't
know who wanted i can tell you over at fairgrounds game effort in victory by the first time starter
humble toad with top jock hose or tees aboard battled all the way around pressing the
favorite Lakota lady putting her away at the top of the stretch and then gamely holding off
ages who had every chance to go on by humble toad at three to one the unofficial winner
of race seven at fairgrounds we'll get you the fairgrounds prices and the oak lawn uh prices
once they go official we need to sort things out at oak lawn it's still a photo finish there
meanwhile checking in at aqueduct eighth race on their card six fur longs on the main track four
year olds and up in for a sixteen thousand dollar tag number one gray wing is the three to five
favorite in the field of seven as they approach the starting gate they're showing slow moes at
oak lawn park as we're trying to uh gather in who actually got the job done in race number seven
i will say this i owe Preston ferris a little bit of an apology apparently 39 wins in the career
Preston ferris they just none of them recently and uh i apologize for saying that uh i don't know
if Preston ferris has any career wins obviously plenty of wins uh but not today uh as far as
Preston ferris goes um did did jutefeld talk to Preston ferris on trainer talk once i'm getting a
note jutefeld spoke with Preston ferris on trainer talks seven years ago so it's in the archives
all right perfect Preston ferris there you have it now i feel even worse okay uh meanwhile at
oak lawn park two seven eight six the order of finish but the inquiry sign is up none of the numbers
are blinking so i don't know what the inquiry is about we'll get back to that in a moment they've
gone official at fairgrounds and they're going into the gated aqueduct so we'll get you this
aqueduct race and we may or may not be able to get you prices uh for any of these tracks before
the top of the hour but we're going to get you eight race at aqueduct uh in geek to wire fashion
once again six ferrelongs the distance sixteen thousand dollars the claiming price
just a field of seven here in the finale at aqueduct number one gray wing for dick dutro and flavian
prat is the overwhelming favorite taking a little bit of a dropping class this afternoon just about
all set here's chris griffin at the big egg all set
and they're uh emerald forest asked for speed debokov right to the outside is quicker though and
here comes debokov it's now ahead in front with at the rail here comes gray wing to apply the
pressure in gray wing like a flash here towards the inside is now taking a right to debokov and
these two hook up early divine leader is outside of them is going to be in third starts to move in
closer is two and a half off the lead after rail comes amusing mischief right there in fourth
twenty two point one six that pumped up opening quarter mile from the back trying to rally on
as print ship is right there within during spirit and emerald forest is the trailer well
in the far turn now in gray wing is in front is up by a length debokov is back for more towards
the outside and here comes in during spirit and tender car moose there on the move three wide
and trying to catch gray wing who's in front forty five point three two that half mile time
gray wing is gutting it out towards the inside enduring spirit in debokov there's second and third
and they've got the gray insight here comes debokov from in between horses now to put a nose in front
print ship on the grandstand side is now launching a huge rally here comes print ship from out
of nowhere debokov is in front print ship to the outside these two down the line together give it
to debokov debokov wins it over print ship that came in during spirit and am using mischief in
one minute ten point nine nine seconds and officially five three six two in the eighth race at
aqueduct number five in a back off getting the win for ilke counter machi and many franko will
hope to get you those prices but very unlikely because we're getting close to the top of the hour
we do have the prices in for the seventh at fairgrounds first time starter number three humble
toad with the win three-year-old chestnut filly by hard spun out of the spiced-town mayor
froscarin froscarin owned by green lanterns tables trained by eddie caneli hose or tease the winning
rider humble toad eight sixty three eighty four twenty those prices correct second one ages four
twenty four twenty third four be the light five dollars fourth number six fast gun exact a
seventeen sixty tri thirty five thirty dollars super two hundred eighty seven dollars the
