Get A Hunch, Bet A Bunch

Today’s challenges are the possibility of racing on a fast track and trying to pick a winner in the second race, perhaps the most contentious this season.

If Crstzalu replicates a recent work and her 1995 form, she’ll smoke other maidens in the fifth race. Obvious choice Sash Gang is drawn outside a lot of other speed in the eighth. In the ninth, Regal’s Precious, despite her fast-closing style, has never won a route race. Judylyn, who also has a generous style, has.

Here are today’s selections:

FIRST: $2 daily doubles wheeling SHIPPING BILL to the field in the second race ($14).

SECOND: $5 to win on SHIPPING BILL.

FIFTH: $10 to win, $10 to place on CRYSTZALU.

SIXTH: $5 quinella baseball of BE EXPLOSIVE, FOGBANK and J.B.’S GONE.

SEVENTH: $5 to win on GALLANT MAC.

NINTH: $10 to win on JUDYLYN. $5 quinellas pairing her with REGAL’S PRECIOUS, WE BE TRYING and AUSSIE CHIP ($15) and $1 trifectas pairing her with every combination of those three and BOLD BILLIE BUDD ($12).

Original bankroll: $2,000.

Sunday’s result: Lost $67.

Present bankroll:2,185.20.
