The # 1 & 3 are a toss.
# 8 best horse, coming off layoff most likely low odds.
Horses # 7,6,4,5,are all very even and a crapshoot for an ex., take a pick or the two at best odds, probably 4 & 6
final order 8-7-6-4-5

Race 7 prior no good for DD
Race 9 ok for DD, I like the 3 & 4 for win & to catch the speed.

Sorry for the delay with the results, I finally got my computer fixed

Looks like the big favorite went down late

I ended up passing the late double
I did well playing the eastern tracks with Val 4 and used a voucher but once the live racing started at Del Mar I just hung around the paddock. It was a fun weekend I was there Fridays and Saturday

My only Del Mar bet was the early double, I used my visual inspection for race 1 Horse 8 looked just like the fit and ready examples Bonnie Ledbetter teaches
In the book, The body language of racehorses.

I had enough battery power to handicap the 2nd race and I came up with the 6,7,8 so that was my early double bet which I got in just in time with my tablet.
