Sunday is closing day, not just for Fresno, but for the entire 2017 California State Fair meet; and that means everything must go, including the Gold Rush Pick Six Jackpot (currently sitting at $19,985). So with a mandatory payout as incentive let's get to it, as I take another run at The Gold Rush Pick Six at The Big Fresno Fair.
RACE 3 - MSW - Six Furlongs Dirt
A’s
# 2 Awhitesportscoat (Morning Line 8-5)
B's
# 3 Seau (ML 9-5)
C's
# 1 Dark and Dandy (ML 8-1)
Awhitesportscoat took the Place last time out against non-claiming maidens on the synthetic main track at Golden Gate. Seau took the Show up at Emerald Downs while disappointing as the Post Time Favorite last time out. Dark and Dandy is a first time starter who had a nice five furlong work over at Golden Gate back in early September, and could be well meant here (else why not just save him a few days to run at Golden Gate?).
RACE 4 - (F) Clm $5k N2X - Five and a Half Furlongs Dirt
A’s
# 2 Bolt Up (ML 1-1)
B’s
None
C's
# 3 Cacica Dulima (ML 2-1)
Bolt Up, trained by Jonathan Wong, won by as many as she wanted to on Columbus Day, after having taken the Place at this class level two starts back. Cacica Dulima, the "other" Wong, could improve with the turn back in distance.
RACE 5 - (F) Clm $3.2k N2X - Five and a Half Furlongs Dirt
A’s
# 6 Two Steps of Glory (ML 7-2)
B’s
# 1 Misty Moni (ML 5-1)
# 2 Unwanted (ML 9-5)
# 4 Secret Agent Girl (ML 5-2)
C's
None
Two Steps of Glory took the Place at this class level last time out on Columbus Day. Misty Moni graduated last time out over this main track after shipping in from downstate. Misty Moni just might be the quickest in this field.
Unwanted has disappointed in each of her last two starts against more expensive stock, and could benefit from the class relief. Secret Agent Girl could move up with the change in barn.
RACE 6 - Md $5k - Five Furlongs Dirt
A’s
# 1 Ralph Jacobs (ML 7-5)
B's
None
C's
# 5 Colony's Pepper (ML 8-1)
# 6 Mister Charmer (ML 3-1)
Ralph Jacobs took the Show against more expensive stock downstate last time out. Ralph Jacobs will be going first time for Trainer John Martin, who tends to do well with such.
Colony's Pepper is a first time starter from a dam who has produced three winners from four starters. Mister Charmer took the Place at this class level last time out.
RACE 7 - The Bull Dog $50k - Nine Furlongs Dirt
A’s
# 5 G. G. Ryder (ML 3-1)
# 7 Force (Ire) (ML 5-2)
B's
# 2 Point Piper (ML 5-1)
# 4 Street Lad (ML 9-2)
# 6 Dixie Pistol (ML 8-1)
# 8 Seattle Serenade (ML 6-1)
C's
# 1 Pass Due Payment (ML 20-1)
# 3 Street Moxie (ML 12-1)
G. G. Ryder, a stakes winner on the Santa Rosa turf two starts back, tries real dirt for the first time for Trainer Jerry Hollendorfer, who tend to do well when moving his runners between the two surfaces. Force (Ire) won the Rolling Green on the Golden Gate turf last time out, over three lengths in front of G. G. Ryder.
Point Piper, Street Lad, and Seattle Serenade are the other three runners in this field trained by Jerry Hollendorfer. Dixie Pistol, stepping up in class, could be the speed of the speed. The "C" Selections are the rest of the field because, why not?
RACE 8 - Md $25k - Six Furlongs Dirt
A’s
# 1 Thrilling Ron (ML 12-1)
# 3 Hedoesitinstyle (ML 4-1)
# 4 Call the Boss (ML 9-5)
# 7 Stocked (ML 3-1)
B's
None
C's
None
Scratch # 6 Chief Barbara (ML 6-1)
Hedoesitinstyle took the Place against cheaper last time out, and should have enough early speed to handle the rise in class today. Call the Boss, trained by John Martin, runs with a price tag on his head for the first time in his career.
Stocked has taken the Place in each of his two prior career starts, and could improve with the change in surface. Thrilling Ron is a first time starter from a dam who has produced four runners from five starters.
OK, that's the analysis. As mentioned above, it's a mandatory payout day, so there are no worries about pressing up a potential single winning combination ticket. So, with all that, playing my tickets in Crist fashion, I get:
All A Entries
$1.00 P6: 2 with 2 with 6 with 1 with 5,7 with 1,3,4,7 $8.00
All A Entries with All B Entries
$0.20 P6: 2,3 with 2 with 1,2,4,6 with 1 with 2,4,5,6,7,8 with 1,3,4,7 $38.40
A's with One C
$0.20 P6: 1 with 2 with 6 with 1 with 5,7 with 1,3,4,7 $1.60
$0.20 P6: 2 with 3 with 6 with 1 with 5,7 with 1,3,4,7 $1.60
$0.20 P6: 2 with 2 with 6 with 5,6 with 5,7 with 1,3,4,7 $3.20
$0.20 P6: 2 with 2 with 6 with 1 with 1,3 with 1,3,4,7 $1.60
Total: $56.40
Post Time for Race 3 is 4:45 EDT / 1:45 PDT. Good luck to all.
Peace and Love,
Jimbo
