Todays races: Del Mar 5, Del Mar 7 (Note, these screenshots are before scratches and before hides)

Del Mar 5th:
A cheap bottom of the barrel Maiden claimer is where i am aiming to break my maiden in this series i will be doing for the rest of the summer. It is something that i usually do alone, for majority of the races on the days card i handicapped, but i figured why not write about it and see how other players played the race and what was done right and wrong.

I will start with what my eye catches first off of my readouts. The #6 STARRING has a HUGE early advantage on the E-L graph, although i think he has very weak readouts, sometimes these types of horses just run the rest of the field off of their feet.

The top two horses, #9 PAMS and #10 CANT look strong in this race, good prices as well. Notice how they are ranked #1 and #2 VDC with no other ties for #1 and #2. Both horses prefer to spend their energy late, therefore i would demand that they have good LPR and HID ratings. Both have these requirements and seem like strong plays especially at the odds they may both go off at.

Contenders: 6-9-10
Top two: 9-10

Race 7: A high level Optional claimer with a few question marks.

What catches my eye first is that both the #2 CHERUB and #6 KALLIFSTER have not run in over 2 months. I checked both work tabs and see both are working well, so nothing to worry about.

The #3 HEIR is 2/1 ML which is already to low for a play, so if this horse stays at it's ML or gets bet any lower, he is an obvious hide.

Once again i cannot find a reason to go back past the top two, unless of course they fall below 2/1. Sometimes it takes some digging to be able to get the winner, but in the case of todays two races it seems as there is no reason to dig and be clever. #6 KALIFSTER is a early pressing type with good EP ratings as well as good LP ratings. The TT is a bit of a concern being that he is rated last in this column, however i think that when so many other readouts are positive for that specific horse, sometimes you can overlook a very low and badly rated rating. #1 CLEVER is obviously a strong bet at anything over 2/1. A horse that uses his energy late, and is rated first in all important readouts for a late energy running closer.

Contenders: 1-2-6
Top two: 1-6
