Tuesday Thinktank

The Tuesday card looks solid with money making opportunities. Let's see if we can take advantage.

Race 1 selection - BUMBLEBSBULLWINKLE
This field seems ripe for the picking and our pick is a much better horse then he has shown in his last 5 races. Post 9 in his most recent left him little chance with a tough crew. Although this is the same class he faces tonight, this field is alot easier then last week. We will take a shot at a boxcar mutuel to start the double.

Race 2 selection - BAR K ARTISTIC
The outside post and lack of solid cover really hurt him last week. There is quite a bit of speed in here and we are hoping for a better outer flow to give our guy striking position tonight. Armbro Bohemian is the 8/5 ml choice and is going to be the one to beat here with his decided speed.

Race 3 selection - MUSCLES KASH
Something went wrong with him last week, as he backed through the field quite a bit after a solid second the week before. Hoping it was mainly due to the slop. It would appear by his racing style that he would benefit over the smaller track much better then Prime Time Caviar (fellow Hoosier invader). Sugar Me Up is another extremely dangerous youngster coming from a barn that always has them ready.

Race 4 selection - JEANNIES LUCK
She was helplessly locked without racing room in her last so that effort looks worse on paper then it actually was. With just a little improvement, she can be in the winner's circle tonight. Picked Informality last week and he raced well closing up the inside in his career debut. Should be better off that needed start.

Race 5 selection - DATE WORTHY
Loved her last week and 5-1 was quite generous. Not going to get those odds tonight, but she really looked good last week. For all intents and purposes, this is the same bunch. Rather take a short price then a long face. If your looking for money in the exotics, try Hoosier Disco and Perfectly Peachy underneath.

Race 6 selection - HOPETOBEKING
There aren't;t very many times where you can say you have a lock in horse racing, but if things go according to Hoyle, our pick is going to be EXTREMELY tough to beat. He had plenty of pace last week against tougher but didn't get room until the last strides. Cagey Attack was given a superb drive by Art Mac last week in a winning effort against the same class. Silverilla Gorilla and Mugsiescharlyhorse are both in from Pompano but are no strangers to the Hazel surface.

Race 7 selection - PIERRE LAVEC
Once again, if our pick stays flat, the others are going to be EXTREMELY hard pressed to beat Pierre tonight. He is much the class and figures to show speed in a race lacking of early foot. Driver change to St Louis to boot. One bad step can ruin it all however. If that's the case, plan B is Biggie Size, who has returned to sharp form.

Race 8 selection - CC ARTIE
Looking for a price with this one. Raced decently last week and if he can come forward a bit second time this year over the surface, then he can win at a decent price. Would like Standandsamsgirl anywhere except from post 9, where his speed will be stretched. Day Money could be an interesting longshot as well.

Race 9 selection - FEELING FRAZZLED
Not a very good trip last week. We are obviously looking for a price play this week because Random Flight was dominant in victory against the same bunch. The wild card in here could be Johnny O'Boyle and his speed. If he's on the front and Random Flight attempts to bully on by them again, it could set up for a closer. Hopefully, the closer will be our pick.

Race 10 selection - MARTHA JANE
One again in search of a price. Likes a bigger track and should come forward from her last start, where she started from the no mans land knows as post 9. Two back was parked forever and still raced decent. Not the strongest bunch here. We picked Mike and Jim at 6-1 off the drop last week, and he is the ML favorite.

Race 11 selection - MADEY MAC
Is going to have to be on his A game here. There is speed inside of him and heading to the top is going to be difficult. He was sharp last week however and will stick with again based on the fact that there are others in here that figure to be other betting options. A price maybe??

Race 12 selection - SEAWIND AMIGO
This race can go one of a thousand different ways, but we are hoping our pick will get into a live outer flow. He is way better on a big track and he sheds post 8 on the half from last week.
