Get A Hunch, Bet A Bunch

In today’s feature, you’ll see something seldom seen a Playfair Mile nominee running for a $4,000 claim tag. Frostgothepeach, with dead aim on claimer of the meet honors, tries for his fourth win of the season. He likes wet tracks, he has speed in a route race and an inside post.

Speaking of wet-track lovers, if it comes up slop, don’t forget that Challenging Knight is a superior mudder.

Sadly, on Wednesday, handicapping for a dry track and catching a wet one caused a direct hit on the GetA-Hunch pocketbook. Mister Alien in the second never ran a step.

Here are today’s selections:

FIRST: Wheel CLOSE COVERAGE to the field in the second race ($14).

THIRD: $10 to win on TOTALLY COMMITTED. Divide any winnings between I’LLGETUINTHEALLY in the fourth and MISS VIKING POWER in the fifth.

FOURTH: $10 to win on I’LLGETUINTHEALLY. Parlay half of any winnings to TALENTS LAST in the eighth.

FIFTH: $10 to win on MISS VIKING POWER.

TENTH: $1 trifecta box of CALSPUR, TENSED JOHNNY and SANDANDY ($6).

Original bankroll: $2,000.

Wednesday’s result: Lost $56.

Present bankroll: $1,811.70.
