Get A Hunch, Bet A Bunch

Some days, you scratch your head. Others, the racing card reads as if it were a manifesto on opportunity.

Do you read the conditions? If so, they give Slightly Dazed, coming out of a pair of stakes races, a big chance with maidens in the first race. By the same token, Exclusive Taboo, in the seventh, ran a good third behind the accomplished Regal’s Precious last time out. Tonight, she goes with non-winners of three lifetime.

If class is your game, isn’t Inlovewiththesport, rounding to form after a one-year layoff, absolutely the best horse in the ninth? And don’t forget the mudders, including Gallant Dreamer in the second and Pudge’s Pride in the eighth.

Kyle’s Ace led the way to a nice profit on Saturday, and an $88.40 exacta added to the bankroll on Sunday.
