Get A Hunch, Bet A Bunch

Notes written on a form sheet:

Although Assiniboia Downs horses seldom fit, Sleep Robber, who knows how to win, drops in class and offers flashy Beyer ratings in tonight’s first race… . In the second, Mighty Zach and Crystal Spy, have been found wanting far too many times, so it’s a good spot to go shopping for a surprise… . Look beyond Sentosa’s dull effort behind Law School, which ran a bang-up race, in his local debut, and his Arizona form makes him a likely winner in the fifth… . She’s Dun Gone Too might make it 8 for 11 this year in the sixth race, but in Montana, she wasn’t within lengths of Nightly Habit… . Karen’s Tuition in the seventh and Miss Surfer and All Fire in the eighth are beaten favorites… . In the finale, Souhiel’s brief career only 21 starts at age 7 suggests unsoundess, but he runs very hard when he can.
