This is the 7th race today at DEL Mar It is the Daisycutter Handicap
The high weights in this race seemed not much of an issue as nobody really stands out.

About the race
You’re correct, Bill.
The high weights do not play a part in this handicap race.
The idea in handicap races is to isolate the top 3 (possibly 4) high weighted horses. In this race there are 6 horses among the 3 high weights.
Eliminations
The #4 and #5 are eliminated for having a ML =>20/1
The #1 is eliminated for having not run in the last 90 days
The #9 is eliminated for having not run in the last 90 days
AND, as an additional handicapping note, today’s race is its’ first time against older horses.
The #2 and #3 are eliminated as they do not have a qualifying race in the past 90 days.
Remaining contenders
#6 – last line, a + race
#7 – last line, a + race
#8 – last line, a (+) race where it gained ground between the 1st and 2nd calls to be within 2 lengths of the leader at the second call.
Conclusion
I don’t know how that contender and line selection works out in RDSS or any other program.
However, with only 3 contenders, if you are playing two horses and/or playing horses based on odds, it would be hard to miss this winner.
