At the Gate - Thursday
By Mike Dempsey

It turns out Arrogate ran even faster than most of us thought in his victory in the $12 million Pegasus World Cup (G1) last Saturday at Gulfstream Park.

After earning Beyer Speed Figures of 122 in his Travers (G1) win and a 120 in his Breeders’ Cup Classic (G1) victory, he earned a 116 in the Pegasus.

He stopped the timer for the nine furlongs in 1:47.61.

Clocker Bruno DeJulio hand timed the race in 1:46.87 and 1:46.91 in two attempts, and the fine folks at TimeformUS came up with a time within .04 seconds.

Andy Beyer has updated the speed figure to 119 and TImeformUS upgraded Arrogate’s number from 134 to 139.

Why is this important?

Because it shows that even in the year 2017 the horse racing industry cannot even time their races correctly, meaning we as horseplayers are not getting accurate information when we wager our money.

There have been other races at Gulfstream Park at this meeting where the times have been questionable, and it has happened at other racetracks as well.

This would not be tolerated in any other sport, and it shouldn’t be happening in ours.

Andy Beyer said it best yesterday when he was quoted in The Daily Racing Form: “Bettors can’t play this game without reliable data.”

Don’t hold your breath waiting for changes to come soon.


Here is the opening race from Gulfstream Park to get the day off to a good start:

GP Race 1 OClm $25,000SAL (12:35 ET)
#6 A Square to Spare 3-1
#7 Ventina 2-1
#3 Prove Me 7-2
#1 Beautyofaday 9-2

Analysis: A Square to Spare dueled for the early lead and tired to finish sixth last out against $35,000 starter optional claimers in her first start against winners. She was a good looking maiden winner two back at GP West going a mile, taking the field gate to wire wand winning going away by nearly 10 lengths. There is some other speed ion here but this gal is going to bounce back with a better effort tin this spot.

Ventina stalked the early pace and finished evenly in a fourth-place finish last out at this level. Two back in her first start against winners she was a solid second. She broke her maiden over the turf here at a mile in her debut. She is the logical one to beat here but our top pick is going to offer a bit more value for the top spot.

Wagering
WIN: #6 to win at 5-2 or better.
EX: 6,7 / 1,3,6,7
TRI: 6,7 / 1,3,6,7 / 1,3,4,6,7

Today’s Featured Race of the Day from Gulfstream Park:

GP Race 8 Md Sp Wt (4:02 ET)
#5 Travis County 7-2
#9 Sympatico 10-1
#8 Mutazen 2-1
#3 Tiz a Curve 8-1

Analysis: Travis County stalked the early pace while saving ground and finished evenly in a fourth-place finish last out in his first start off nearly a six-month layoff. The gelding was making his first start on turf after coming up short four times last year on dirt, missing in a photo two back at Belmont Park. The $850,000 Keeneland purchase is by Tapit out of a Giant's Causeway mare that has dropped two dirt winners, top earner stakes winner Cassaat ($714,733).

Sympatico makes his debut for the Nicks barn that is 18% winners with first time starters. The gelding is by Scat Daddy out of the stakes winner Senza Paura ($150,141) who has dropped seven winners including three turf winners. Decent looking works on the morning tab and debuts with lasix.

Wagering
WIN: #5 to win at 3-1 or better.
EX: 5,9 / 3,5,8,9
TRI: 5,9 / 3,5,8,9 / 3,5,7,8,9

Live Longshots:
These are price plays for exotic players looking to find a couple of extra contenders to use in their trifecta and superfecta wagers. Or for those with smaller bankrolls, you might want to get in a small win-place wager.

Gulfstream Park
R2: #6 Art Bijou 12-1
R4: #2 Been Waiting 8-1
R7: #5 Kenitra 8-1
R8: #9 Sympatico 10-1
R8: #3 Tiz a Curve 8-1
R9: #4 Amaluna 8-1
R9: #7 Realistic 8-1

Good luck today!

# 5 LONE VALLEY SAM 5/1
# 4 CALIBUR STAR 5/2
# 2 CANTAB THE MAN 6/1

LONE VALLEY SAM looks respectable to best this grouping. Can't forget this contender, especially in exotics. Pace numbers put him in the mix in this contest. CALIBUR STAR - Has really good speed figures and definitely has to be considered for a play for this race. Deserves a shot given the positive win clip he sports. CANTAB THE MAN - Not many folks know, but the 2 post here at Monticello Raceway has been stellar for a well above average win statistic. This fine animal looks very good. Check out the 71 avg TrackMaster Speed Rating.

Race 1 - Post: 7:30 - 1 mile. TROT - Class Rating: 81 - Purse:$10000 - CLAIMING HANDICAP $12,000 TO $15,000. ALLOWANCES FOR AGE & SEX. ENTER IN MULTIPLES OF $1,000.
CONSORTIUM*CHOICES

# 7 ALACRITY 6/1
# 6 MOONBEAM HALL 10/1
# 8 ELDORADO OF GOLD S 3/1

ALACRITY is the clear stand out wager in the eyes of the group. Could provide us a victory based on formidable recent speed figs - earning an avg of 80. Surely the class of the field with an average rating of 82. A nice play. MOONBEAM HALL - More wins than the expected average have been recorded by harness racers lining up behind the 6 hole at Woodbine. Going to post sharply, achieved a bang-up TrackMaster Speed Rating in his last race (79). ELDORADO OF GOLD S - Could be the most respectable in the group here, showing formidable figures of late. Average speed is a solid 80. He has really good class figures, averaging 85. Worth considering for a bet in this race.

RECOMMENDED*CHOICES


# 8 ROMANTIC STROLL 8/1

# 2 RED FERN DOLL 7/2

# 9 GARLIC 9/2

ROMANTIC STROLL looks quite good to best this group of horses particularly if the morning line of 8/1 holds. Batista has recent ROI figs which make this one a good wager. Strong average Equibase Speed Figs in dirt route races make this animal a definite contender. Has some positive angles which make this one a bet. RED FERN DOLL - Daniels has this filly running well and is a very good selection based on the very good speed figures posted in route races as of late. With a nice class figure average of 87, has one of the best class advantages in this group of horses. GARLIC - Could beat this group given the 67 Equibase Speed Figure put up in her last outing. Is worth careful consideration and may be a bet - strong Equibase speed figs (55 average) at today's distance and surface lately.

RECOMMENDED*CHOICES


# 6 RYANS CHARM 3/1

# 2 DRESSED TO A T 12/1

# 5 FRENZIFIED (GB) 4/1

I've got to go with RYANS CHARM. Could provide positive returns based on very strong recent speed figures with an average of 99. Has ran very well in turf route races. Had one of the strongest Speed Figures of this field in her last race. DRESSED TO A T - Could beat this field given the 108 speed figure garnered in her last outing. This mare has to be given consideration just off the earnings per start in turf route races alone. FRENZIFIED (GB) - Has been racing well in races of this distance, going 4 out of 11 under similar conditions. The average class fig of 99 makes this horse tough to beat.

Penn National - Race #8 - Post: 9:10pm - Maiden Claiming - 8.0 furlongs on the Dirt. Purse: $10,500 Class Rating: 55

Rating:

#6 PATSY TIME (ML=8/5)
#5 EYE CONTACT (ML=3/1)


PATSY TIME - Such a solid closer. She'll try her best to catch the pace and pass them on the way to the wire. Rodriguez drops her down to this level. You don't need too much more handicapping data to think this thoroughbred is in a good spot at this level. The last time she tried this distance she got a fig good enough to win this event. Rodriguez brings her right back. I advocate you stick with this strong mare. EYE CONTACT - Look for this filly to run better right here. Last clash at Penn National finishing fourth on a sloppy track is no sign of her true talent. Stretching a thoroughbred out to a route after two sprints is a classic conditioning maneuver. While the finish was disappointing, this thoroughbred made a good stretch move in the last race at Penn National. Will most certainly do better in this event.

Vulnerable Contenders: #1 GOLDHUNT (ML=7/2), #4 HOOF HOOF AWAY (ML=8/1), #2 CROSS MY HEART (ML=8/1),

GOLDHUNT - Didn't close any ground whatsoever on December 27th. Hard to wager on today at the expected odds. Not likely that the speed figure she earned on December 27th will be enough in this clash. HOOF HOOF AWAY - Difficult to play at 8/1 odds after the last two outings. CROSS MY HEART - Recent declining speed ratings of 44/37/26 give a clue that this equine may be going off form.



STRAIGHT WAGERS:

Have to go with #6 PATSY TIME on the win end if we get at least 7/5 odds

Oaklawn Park - Race #2 - Post: 1:57pm - Claiming - 8.5 furlongs on the Dirt. Purse: $24,500 Class Rating: 77

Rating:

#7 COUNTON CLAIRE (ML=8/1)
#4 CHICKEN NOODLE (ML=10/1)


COUNTON CLAIRE - Van Berg tried her against the boys last time out. This should be a good spot. Was in a $16,000 Claiming race at Churchill Downs last out. That event had a class number of 82 and she is moving down in this event. A certain serious competitor. CHICKEN NOODLE - This filly's last fig garnered on Dec 30th is in the top spot in last race speed figs.

Vulnerable Contenders: #5 SPERLING (ML=5/2), #8 APPLIQUE (ML=7/2), #6 MOCHA CHIP (ML=5/1),

SPERLING - I usually try to beat these types of favorites off the long layoff. This filly earned a speed figure in her last race which probably isn't good enough in today's event. MOCHA CHIP - Didn't finish in the money on November 28th at Mahoning Valley Race Cour. Followed it up with another less than stellar try.



STRAIGHT WAGERS:

#7 COUNTON CLAIRE is going to be the play if we are getting 9/5 or better

#2 JULIE D

#5 PICTURE DAY
#6 NATALIE VICTORIA

#2 JULIE D qualifies as a TrackMaster PLUS "PowerPony," has excellent early speed abilities to compliment for this inner track sprint, is the pace profile leader, and comes off five straight "POWER RUN WINS" in her last five starts. Jockey Angel Arroyo has been in her irons on one previous occasion, posting a win, and is back this afternoon here in Ozone Park for his 2nd ride, gunning for back-to-back "Circle Trips." #1 RECKLESS HUMOR has hit the board in four of her last five starts, winning twice, including a "POWER RUN WIN" in her 3rd race back.

By Garnet Barnsdale

DRF

Race 1 - $40,000 Guaranteed Pick Five Pool

Race 4 - $50,000 Guaranteed Pick Four Pool

Pick 5: 5,7,8/2,7/8/6,7,8/3,4,5,10 = $14.40

Early Pick 4: 6,7,8/3,4,5,10/1,3,9/2,5 = $72

Late Pick 4: 2,5/1,7,8/4,6,9/4,7,8 = $54

MEET STATS: 100 - 395 / $548.40 BEST BETS: 16 - 36 / $59.70

SPOT PLAYS: 15 - 35 / $59.40

Best Bet: MATTJESTIC TEMPO (3rd)

Spot Play: BLUE FOX (7th)


Race 1

(8) ELDORADO OF GOLD S was one of several claimed horses involved in an early skirmish for the front last week and he paid the price. He retains the leading driver and he should get an easier journey tonight. (5) CHIEVOUS COLE chased a tough repeat winner home last week and had broken equipment. He can be dangerous if he blasts here; using. (7) ALACTRITY fits here and goes for a new barn off the claim; consider. (3) GIRL DRAMA converted a perfect trip last time but she is often out of position at the 3/4 pole; minor share predicted this time.

Race 2

(2) TOP DOLLAR moves into a hot barn and gets an aggressive young driver here. Expect an earlier move this time. (7) HARLEIGH RIDER hasn't won in forever, but he gets McNair back for his second try in a claimer and he gets post relief; beware. (3) LEROYS DREAM is always around the money racing out of town. He can share here. (5) IM THE MAN will be part of the early pace but it's unlikely that he sticks around for more than a smaller share.

Race 3

(8) MATTJESTIC TEMPO roared up to win last week despite having a tough trip behind poor cover. She's razor sharp and the smaller field works to her advantage; a three-peat looms. (1) SR BEACH BABE should be able to leave better here, which puts her in the picture. (6) CASIMIR PARDON ME reversed tactics last week and closed for a slice. A more aggressive steer is likely in the cards. (7) SWEETSHADYSHARK should be near the front early and she can stick around for a slice.

Race 4

(6) KOULTONS ROCKET went a huge trip hung the mile from the outer post at Flamboro the other day. He is clearly in top form, comes back quickly again and will likely be a square price; top call. (7) QUICK FUN N takes a big class drop and must be used in multi-race bets, but he could be overplayed in the win pool. (8) ROCKIN WIZARD qualified well and he certainly classes up to these. Henry staying on likely means he's a 'go'; using. (4) SIERRA MADRE can pass horses late and fill one of the lower exotics slots.

Race 5

(5) I WISH YOU WELL took a shuffle in the Blizzard series but she did come back on for a share. She should be prominent throughout here. (10) MANHATTAN KELLY also exits the Blizzard series and will likely blast and try to control things or sit in the choice's pocket. (4) DANCING SHADOWS K beat easier with a power move in the third quarter. A smaller share is likely this time. (3) BALOO SANDS also steps up off a maiden win and she too can share.

Race 6

(3) DEAR DAD passed a few horses in the back half in his debut for Vanderkemp. Sharp improvement here would be no surprise. (1) ROAD LIGHT broke while making a move last week. She can factor here if she behaves. (9) WAVE CRASHER has some ability and he could take these if he stays flat, but that part could also be dicey. (2) MIGHTY NICKY is worth a look debuting for Henriksen.

Race 7

(2) BLUE FOX showed some late interest last time racing in the Snowshoe series. He should be closer early here and can take these with a well-timed steer. (5) SOUTHWIND MONTY raced big on the rim last time; using. (6) JUST A THOUGHT is always live in the lane but quite often at the mercy of pace and trip. A small share is likely for him. (3) HOME JAMES got nailed late by the chalk last week. He is another that can take this contentious heat.

Race 8

(7) FIRM IT UP takes a big drop here and attracts the leading driver, who has been moving horses up all meet long; top call. (8) SURPRISE HANOVER also drops and he figures to leave hard to get good position. Toss him on your Pick 4 bets. (1) BUCKSHOT KILLEAN was taken by Vanderkemp for himself and he adds Lasix. He can be a threat. (5) LONESOME ATTACK can close in late for a share while dropping in class.

Race 9

(4) BROOKLETSJUSTIFIED was held up to the stretch last week but once free had plenty of pace to get the job done. He should be tough in here facing similar. (6) REBEL VOYAGER continues to race well and is a danger from close range. (9) RED JOHN raced okay vs. the tough Lyons Sands last time and he is worth including in the late Pick 4. (7) FREDDY BEAR was well back of the choice last time but he could take a small slice here.

Race 10

(4) PUSH BACK raced huge last week considering he was pressed every step of the way. He should take these a long way. (8) CHEYENNE FORD got a dream setup last time and rolled by the choice late, but he is sharp as a tack and rates highly regardless. (7) HIGHPOINT CHIP raced well last time considering he was coming off 39-day break; using. (9) HOOSIER DALI can pass many of these late in the mile. (3) I WANNA BE GEARED can take a small share off an inside following trip.

Meadowlands: Thursday 2/2 Analysis
By Derick Giwner

DRF

Race 1 - $25,000 Guaranteed Pick Five Pool

Race 3 - $25,000 Guaranteed Pick Four Pool

Race 6 - $40,000 Guaranteed Pick Four Pool

MEET STATS: 100 - 343 / $521.60 (-$164.40)

BEST BETS: 13 - 28 / $52.60 (-$3.40)

Best Bet: NEVER EVER CLEVER (8th)

Spot Play: ACTION BRAD (9th)


Race 1

I’m going to need a bit of luck to get (10) LIGHTNING STRIKE home from the tough outside post, but the price should be right to roll the dice. Nine-year-old faced traffic last week and clearly had something left. He switches to a more aggressive driver tonight and could be put in play early for a high percentage barn. (8) SAILIN METRO never finished after an issue with broken equipment as the favorite; makes amends? (6) MR BIG LOAD was in a slightly better spot last week, but should remain competitive regardless. (5) IDEALIST comes off a decent mile from a bad post. He looks like a contender but only had one win last year.

Race 2

(8) MAJESTIC SUNSET blew away many of these with an aggressive move by Marohn last Thursday. A similar effort can produce a similar result. (4) BUFF is clearly fast enough to win, but he has made breaks in each of his starts with Ginsburg in the bike. (5) IT’SASWAN moves from NW3 to NW2 and should appreciate the easier company.

Race 3

(8) STONEBRIDGE IDOL comes off a strong effort and should get another clear path to the front tonight. (1) HALL PASS HELEN is in a much better spot from an inside post this week; must use on all multi-race exotic tickets. (9) SNAKE EYES drops down a notch. I guess he could wake up. (4) MICHAEL’S WILD BOY comes off a confidence building win at Freehold and adds Brett Miller.

Race 4

(1) I FOUND MY BEACH comes off a good mile and now picks up Brett Miller. This looks like a brush and crush spot. (5) JOJO JOVE also picks up a new driver. He is fast enough to win. (3) MAJO JUST DO IT has been finishing up his miles well and only needs a smooth trip to pull off an upset. (6) WHO DO YOU LIKE finished second in his first start for this barn. He’ll be tough if another step forward occurs.

Race 5

(2) MONTALBANO BI kept his act together and absolutely blew away (3) STITCH IN TIME in the late stages. Unless the latter finds more staying power this week or the former breaks, the result should be similar. (8) BIG EXPENSE seems to have the best chance of upsetting the top pair; class-dropper. (6) P L HOUDINI broke for no reason last time; using underneath only.

Race 6

(10) KEYSTONE I WISH made a bold move and just missed last time. Bongiorno sticks here over a horse he won with last week. I’ll do the same. (3) GALARINA charged home last week and is clearly feeling good now. (7) JK PEARLS DELIGHT has won two straight and yet should offer some value in this field. (4) TRY N KEEP UP has raced well in three of her last four starts.

Race 7

(6) MELANIES SHARKETTE is the only mare in the race with consistent form and she can win from on or off the pace. (7) GOINROUNDNCIRCLES improved on the drop to this basement condition last time and seems like the main danger to the top pick. (4) JARNAC can show some early speed and grab a share. (5) SPORTSMUFFLER gets a better post to work with this week.

Race 8

(4) NEVER EVER CLEVER spent the entire mile on the rim and kept finding more in her best effort in months. Jonas Czernyson trainee should prove difficult to beat as the heavy chalk. (10) BAD DAY BLACK ROCK finished with a sharp rally to score last week but gets a negative post move and loses Miller to the top pick. (3) TAC’S DELIGHT didn’t have it last time but certainly can go with this field if feeling good. (7) DETROIT RAPPER should have a say in the race but lacks the form to actually consider in the top spot.

Race 9

(3) ACTION BRAD double drops in claiming price for a barn that is having a good meet. I’d be very surprised if this guy didn’t bring a top effort. (7) WHATAGAMBLE has early speed and form. If the top one falters at all, this is the next logical winner. (6) UF FAST FEELIN made an early wide move and flattened last time. Gelding moves into a new barn and could seemingly wake up. (1) BUCKEYE IN CHARGE raced well last time and can get into the exotics.

Yonkers: Thursday 2/2 Analysis
By Brewster Smith

DRF

MEET STATS: 18 - 81 / 169.40

BEST BETS: 4 - 8 / $14.60

Best Bet: JC KINGDOM (1st)

Spot Play: WESTERN BAYAMA (8th)


Race 1

(6) JC KINGDOM has shown good speed in his last two tries and maybe a favorable trip can put this gelding right back into the winner's circle. (5) NATIONAL DEBT came down the center of the track for the score in his last try and appears to be a big threat for the repeat. (4) TRACK MASTER D moves down a bit in class and that could help his cause; maybe.

Race 2

(7) SAM seems to be heading in the right direction based on her last two tries so a forward move is not out of the question. (2) KIA KAHA N was third best in her last two starts and now moves to the 2-hole; player. (1) JENNAS PATRIOT gets post relief and is this mare must be considered in all of the exotic slots.

Race 3

(1) LITTLE MISS HENRY Mare seems to be rounding back to winning form based on her last trip to the post and retains the rail; threat to get the job done. (2) QUICK AINT FAIR moves to door number two and Bartlett keeps the faith; dangerous. (3) JACKIE O Easy score in her last start and will be a handful again so watch out.

Race 4

(2) ENVIOUS HANOVER was quite dull from the 8-hole last out but the good news is the pacing mare gets serious post relief and was sharp in her first attempt at the Hilltop; gets the call. (6) KAMWOOD LAUGHTER N took the pocket route on her way to victory recently; main danger. (7) COOL DESIRE does have speed and she could contend with these if given a favorable trip.

Race 5

(4) ALL ARTIST flashed fine speed in his latest and this gelding might be ready to make tonight a winning one with Bartlett at the helm. (5) CHEYENNE JEFFREY has raced well at Dover and this 9-year-old gelding makes his return to Yonkers; player. (1) CAM B ZIPPER should be right in the mix from the fence.

Race 6

(1) WINDSONG JACK was sent down the road en route to an easy victory last out. Gelding now moves to door number one and has every right to boss this group for his second straight score. (6) HUGH HEFNER N was uncovered at the 3/4 pole and did put in a mild rally for show honors; contender. (7) ADMIRAL was quite game for the placing last out; could have a say in the outcome.

Race 7

Will take a shot with (2) DIABANDO to put it all together; this gelding seems to do well at Yonkers so at his best and a with favorable trip he can take this. (3) CARTOON DADDY moves to the 3-hole and fits well in here; threat for win honors. (7) MARTIAL BLISS has been in the exacta picture in his last six starts so he must be considered against these.

Race 8

(1) WESTERN BAYAMA gets the best of the draw and this gelding does have fine speed to get back into the winner's circle. (3) RANGERS SURESHOT came down the center of the track to get the job done by a head; can repeat. (2) SANTANNA ONE Sharp in his last three outings and could make some noise in deep stretch.

Race 9

(1) COACH CAL retains the rail slot and the gelding did show early pace but tried when they were turning for home last time around; can take this at his best. (6) SKY MCFLY was very wide from dead last to get up for the place spot last time out; big player. (3) SOUTHERN ALLIE did not race badly in his first try here last week; don't overlook.

Race 10

(1) CANACO STAR zoomed on by them all to get the job done at 29-1 last out; now receives the rail and form is sharp enough to take another. (3) GENTLE JANET is knocking at the door based on her last two tries. (2) CHEYENNE ROBIN gets post relief and could have a say against these.
