Big Day for Bejarano; Bad Day for Me

Here's video of the Sunshine Millions Classic, which played out as expected, with the pace much too quick early and the closers coming fast. I caught the worst end of the deal as Wicked Style was traveling well, poised to get first jump on the leaders, but was cut off twice at the top of the stretch and then couldn't rally at the rail. My 30-1 BOMB Palladio, who was bet to a paltry 6-1, ran around the entire field and was beaten a half length by hack job Russell Baze on Bold Chieftan. That one saved all the ground and plowed through traffic, completely retarded ride and the guy gets lucky. Oh well.

Red Sun won easy.

Today I'm looking at a few spots.

In the second race, Good Measure is the 3/5 morning line after a nice debut and subsequent work heads up with BC Sprint winner Dancing in Silks. This one looks to have a big stakes future. Uncle Greg @ 10-1 is the interesting colt. He's shown nothing in two career starts, while breaking slow in both, but his workout pattern has improved over the last month. He reportedly was finishing well in his recent work with Chantal up. She'll be riding this afternoon. Exacta Material.

In race 6, Jimmy the Brick (12-1) retains Rosario, and goes long - a trip he loves. Cavanal (3-1) is a huge player at this level, and may offer some value. Exacta box here.

In the feature, Proviso (7/2) looks head and shoulders the best to me. A look at this ones stats show a 0 for 0 record at 7 furlongs, but a deeper look shows she's actually 3 for 3 at ABOUT 7 furlongs in France. In addition, she's run huge in both North American starts, most recently when running 4th in the BC Ladies Classic. That was a race when she tried to chase a runaway leader too early, was steadied, and still ran a huge race. Bejarano takes over today, for this mares first start under Mott (which actually is my only concern).

Good Luck.
