DEL MAR ANALYSIS FOR SUNDAY – 8/23/2020

RACE 1

TOP SPEED IS DEHYDRATION 7/5. HER MAIN PACE RIVALS ARE BOTH LONGSHOTS, STREET FLYER 12/1 AND DON’T STOP LOOKIN 12/1.

CLOSERS ARE WEAK. HAPPY TRAILS 8/1 AND HIGH ON GIN 2/1 WILL BE RUNNING ON BUT THE RACE WILL LIKELY BE OVER BY THE TIME THEY HIT THE TOP OF THE STRETCH.

RACE 2

RACE DOMINATED EARLY BY WATCH ME BURN 8/1, GREAT RETURN 5/1 AND HOLLY HUNDY 7/2.

BIG TIME CLOSER QUERELLE 3/1, ML LINE FAVORITE WILL BE WAITING FOR MELTDOWN. LUCKY PERIDOT 8/1 WILL BE RUNNING ON LATE AS WELL.

RACE 3

FLAT OUT JOY 7/2 WILL BE WINGING EARLY OVER 2 SLOW EARLY RIVALS.

CLASSY RULER IS THE BEST CLOSER 5/2.

4 FIRST TIME STARTERS. LED BY SENTIMENTAL AND ACTUAL FAVORITE AS TIME GOES BY 2/1, THE THEME SONG FROM 1942 BEST PICTURE CASABLANCA,

IF SHE HAS HER EXIT VISA IN ORDER, SHE COULD ESCAPE WITH A VICTORY IN HER FIRST CAREER START.

RACE 4

FASTEST EARLY IS TRUE MISCHIEF 7/2. SHE SHOULD BE SEPARATED FROM HER NEAREST PURSUERS, DOLCI 5/1, MOUNTAN PASS 6/1 AND LONGSHOT SAPPHIRE SILK 15/1.

ONLY CLOSER IS THE ML FAV. INTO VICTORY 5/2, BUT SHE IS ONLY A MODERATE THREAT OFF HER BEST.

ONE FIRST TIMER, DADDYTELLSASTORY 6/1.

RACE 5

BIG TIME SPEED FROM GALLOVIE 9/2 EARLY, CHASED BY MUCHLY 5/1 AND GYPSY SPIRIT 2/1. LONGSHOT SASSYSERB 12/1 COULD ALSO BE PART OF THE EARLY PACE.

STRONG CLOSERS IN SICILIA 8/1 AND HOLLYWOOD GIRL 6/1.

RACE 6

TWO LIKELY JACKRABBITS EARLY ARE OUTLAW 8/1 AND I BELONG TO BECKY 5/1. LONGSHOT AWHITESPORTSCOAT 15/1 COULD BE A FACTOR IN THE EARLY BATTLE AS WELL.

TOP CLOSER IS ML CHOICE MAYAN WARROR 3/1.

FEELING HERE IS THAT THE SPEED WILL BE LONG GONE BY THE TIME THEY REACH THE STRETCH.

RACE 7

MODERATE TEMPO EARLY FOR THIS 1 1/6 TURF RACE LEADS YOU TO THINK THE LATE RUNNERS WILL DOMINATE.

ONLY SPEEDER AMONG THE FAVORITES IS WORTHY TURK 4/1. THERE ARE 6 OTHER RUNNERS THAT COULD FILL THE STALKER ROLE.

CLOSERS ARE LED BY BIG TIME LATE RUNNER FRENCH GETAWAY 5/1. WHILE TOP TWO ML FAVORITES HOOTIE 7/2 AND SOUTHERN KING 3/1 CAN ROLL LATE AS WELL.

LONGSHOT CLOSERS CAMINO DE ESTRELLA 12/1, ACKER 12/1 AND SWAMP SOUFFLE 12/1 ALL DO THEIR BEST RUNNING LATE AND COULD PULL AN UPSET

SHOULD BE A WIDE-OPEN SCRAMBLE TURNING FOR HOME.

RACE 8

ONLY 2 HORSES WHO HAVE RUN WITH ONLY MODERATE EARLY SPEED COMING FROM ML CHOICE SMOOTHLIKE BUTTAH 3/1.

8 FIRST TIME STARTERS AND THEY DON’T NEED TO BE WORLD BEATERS TO SCORE HERE.

RACE 9 – DEL MAR MILE HANDICAP (G2) $150,000

FEATURE RACE HAS A BIG TIME STRONG FRONT RINNER IN KIWI’S DREAM 8/1. GALILEAN 9/2 CAN SIT AND WAIT BUT HE MUST HOPE THE TOP HORSE WILL COME BACK TO HIM. OTHER BIG TIME PACE PRESSURE COULD COME FROM LONGSHOTS BOMBARD 10/1 AND BOB AND JACKIE 12/1.

CLOSER TO FEAR MOST IS ML FAV. MO FORZA 7/2 AND LONGSHOT OVERDUE 12/1.

RACE 10

SOME FAST HOMBRES LINE UP HERE FOR THIS 6 1/2 FURLONG CONTEST FOR 40K OPTIONAL CLAIMERS.

ST.JOE BAY 5/1 LEADS THE WAY FOLLOWED CLOSELY BY JAMMING EDDY 6/1 AND JULIUS 3/1.

CLOSER DU JOUR IS EXPRESS TRAIN 7/2 AND HE BETTER RUN TO HIS NAAME IF HE WANTS TO CATCH THESE THREE SPEEDERS. LONGSHOT HEARTFULLOFSTARS 12/1 IS JUST AS STRONG IN THE STRETCH AT A MUCH BETTER PRICE

GOOD BETTING RACE.

RACE 11

CARD CLOSES WITH A BIG TIME LONE FRONT RUNNER NAMED NOTRE DAME 6/1. HE JUST MIGHT BE A GALLOPING GHOST AS ON PAPER HE IS CLEARLY FASTER THAN HIS RIVALS. SUMMER FUN 8/1 CAN STAY WITHIN SHOUTING DISTANCE AS CAN LONGSHOT PERSEVERANCE 12/1.

MAIN CLOSER IS K P D DAY 5/1.
