Two PLAYS for Today out at DEL MAR
RACE 9
6 Furlongs
Filly- OC 40k/N1X
Three Years Old and Upward
#9 Provenance
Lots of upside here for me with this 4 year old filly trained by Mike Puype. Solid effort last out being beaten by a nose down the hill at Santa Anita. I think the return to the synthetic surface is a PLUS for this horse and she'll move forward on it. A couple solid works since the last effort and Tyler Baze stays aboard. If she can improve slightly today, then she has a great shot to find herself on top for win honors. She caught my eye and is the first of two QRacing PLAYS OF THE DAY
RACE 11
7 Furlongs
Md 20,000
Purse $25,000
Maidens, Three Years Old and Upward
#9 Play Maker (6-1)
This field is made up of a few droppers who today are running for career low price tags. I'm going to stick with a horse who ran at this level last time out and the looks like he is starting to figure out what the game is all about. This 4 year old gelding for the George Papaprodromou barn has recently been doing his best running late. Last time at Santa Anita, he closed over 3 lengths on the top two finishers in the lane which isn't an easy task over that surface. There isn't a ton of speed in here today, so it's quite possible that Jockey Alonso Quinonez will have this one placed closer to the pace like his start last March at Santa Anita. That day, he was sitting only a length or so off of pretty quick fractions and posted a career best beyer against a much saltier group. Looking for Alonso Q to get QRacing to the winner's circle in the second QRacing PLAY OF THE DAY.
Best of Luck and Enjoy the Races,
