INDIANA GRAND, r7, 8/17/21
Let's take a look at r7 at Indiana Grand for Tuesday 8/17, post time 5:31 pm EDT, 8f on the turf for NW1 with optional claiming. At first glance it appears to be a wide open race with a vulnerable ML favorite:
First, pacelines and observations: 1 -- SCRATCHED 2 -- L3 (June 22): switches from dirt to turf, from spring to route, jockey switch to Mojica who has been hot, likely part of fast early pace, positive form cycle 3 -- look at L1 (july 29) and L2 (june 29): positive jockey switch, but probably too slow 4 -- L1 (june 22): switches dirt to turf, first time on turf, first race after 56 day layoff, poor turf pedigree, BUT has top trainer AND jockey in field 5 -- L4 (june 14): switches dirt to turf, spring to route, positive jockey switch to Batista, probably part of fast early pace, BUT has weak Fr3 6 -- L1 (july 28): jockey switch, slow Fr1, BUT is a closer who may benefit from fast early pace 7 -- SCRATCHED 8 -- look at L! (aug 3) and L2 (june 29): jockey switch, appears to be declining in form, slow Fr1, but is a closer who may benefit from fast early pace 9 -- look at L1 (july 29) and L2 (june 29): third race after claimed, jockey switch, last race was a speed rating top, BUT will be part of fast early pace, has never passed a horse in the stretch 10 -- L1 (july 28): part of fast early pace, jockey switch, third race after layoff BUT in poor current form, has never passed a horse in the stretch, NEEDS THE LEAD but probably won't get it 11 -- look at L1 (july 24) and L2 (june 27): third race after claim, positive jockey switch to Pedroza, slow Fr1, BUT is closer who may benefit from fast early pace 12 -- look at L1 (july 28) and L2 (july 7): blinkers on, part of fast early pace today 13 -- SCRATCHED 14 -- SCRATCHED MATCHUP: 10 NEEDS THE LEAD, but probably won't get it as battles 2 and 5 for early position, but all three lack quality Fr3. 8, 11, 12 all close MAIN WIN CONTENDERS: 2,4,6,9,11, LONGSHOT CONTENDER 5 BETTING STRATEGY: win bets 2,9, ex 6/9,11, ex 11/2,4,5,6,9, ex 4/2,5,8,11, small win bet on 5 Good luck Richard |

6-3-10-12-8 When structuring my bets I did not feel the odds on the 6 would be sufficient for a win bet in such a large field, but unfortunately did not find the 3 underneath for the exacta. Right church, wrong pew. Richard |
