12/7/19 Remington Park Primetime Pick Four - Preview

A programming note: next Sunday, December 15, in addition to being closing day for the 2019 meet, is Springboard Mile Day at Remington Park.  Good Lord willing, that will be the card that I will be playing next weekend.  So there will be no new post on this site next Saturday, December 14; but hopefully there will be a Pick Four play here on Sunday, December 15.  So, with that out of the way, let's get to it, as I take another run at The Primetime Pick Four at Remington Park.

RACE 5 - Clm $20k - Six Furlongs Dirt

A’s

# 4 Holt County (Morning Line 5-1)

B’s

# 3 Galactica (ML 3-1)

C's

# 1 Texas Long Bow (ML 15-1)
# 2 Aboout Our Time (ML 7-2)
# 5 Rise Up (ML 20-1)
# 7 Imma Wild Bling (ML 8-1)

Scratch # 6 Eurobond (ML 8-5)

As per usual, Oklahoma breds cost more; $5k more, to be exact.  But with the scratch of Eurobond, there are no Oklahoma breds in the field; so all runners are for sale for $20k.

Holt County could be quickest here.  Holt County also does quite well at today's distance, with five Wins in eight tries, as well as two Place finishes.

Galactica missed victory by just a neck at this class level last time out, albeit over an off track.  The backup "C" Selections are the rest of the field.

RACE 6 - (F) Clm $5k - Eight Furlongs Dirt

A’s

# 3 A J's Grand (ML 7-5)

B’s

# 1 Desert Madam (ML 15-1)
# 4 Eye On Harper (ML 6-1)
# 6 Miss Wekati (ML 2-1)

C's

# 2 Starship Impulse (ML 6-1)
# 5 River Deputy (ML 12-1)
# 7 Toskiko (ML 30-1)

As per usual, Oklahoma breds are more expensive; so if you want to claim River Deputy or Toskiko, it'll cost you an extra $1.25k.

A J's Grand goes first off the claim for Trainer Steve Asmussen.  Desert Madam could improve with the cutback in distance.  Eye On Harper fits well with the contenders.

Miss Wekati, making her first start outside the state of Louisiana, could move up with the drop in class.  The backup "C" Selections are everyone else.

RACE 7 - (F) [S] Md $20k - Six Furlongs Dirt

A’s

# 8 Tomey's Lexus (ML 9-5)

B's

# 3 First After Klaria (ML 20-1)
# 9 Flat Out Phat (ML 8-5)

C's

# 1 Seeing Double (ML 8-1)
# 2 Real Rhythm (ML 15-1)

# 4 Oneida Won (ML 10-1)
# 5 River Liberty (ML 15-1)

# 6 Dede's Trick (ML 12-1)
# 7 River Wild (ML 20-1)


For those who note such things, connections had the option to shed three pounds off their juvenile filly's back in exchange for running for $15k instead of $20k.  None in this field chose that option.

Tomey's Lexus took the Place at this class level last time out; albeit a well beaten Place.  First After Klaria is a debut runner who hasn't shown much in the morning; but, then again, she's not facing much in this field, so why not.  Flat Out Phat is running for the first time with a price tag on her head.  The backup "C" Selections are the rest of the field.

RACE 8 - (F) Clm $7.5k N2L - Six and a Half Furlongs Dirt

A’s

# 8 Tayla (ML 8-1)

B’s

# 1 Natalie's Toccet (ML 7-2)
# 3 Fox Alert (ML 5-2)
# 9 Franki D Oro (ML 3-1)

C's

# 2 Communicado (ML 20-1)
# 5 Rose Larue (ML 5-1)
# 6 Louisiana Lily (ML 30-1)
# 7 All the Juice (ML 12-1)
# 10 Temple Tower  (ML 15-1)
# 11 Kiss Me Lily (ML 50-1)


Scratch # 4 I'm a Okie Lady (ML 20-1)

As you've come to expect, Oklahoma breds have a surcharge at the claiming box; so if you want to purchase Natalie's Toccet or Kiss Me Lily, it'll cost you and extra $2.5k.

Tayla took the Place at this class level last time out.  Natalie's Toccet gets her fifth rail draw in her seven most recent starts; too bad she's not quicker.  Anyway, Natalie'd Toccet looks to be the one running best late, provided she doesn't get stuck in traffic.

Fox Alert is in for a tag for the first time in her career.  Franki D Oro is getting some much needed class relief.  The backup "C" Selections are everyone else.

OK, that's the analysis.  Playing my tickets in modified Crist fashion, I get:

All A Entries

$1.00 P4: 4 with 3 with 8 with 8 $1.00

All A Entries with All B Entries

$0.50 P4: 3,4 with 1,3,4,6 with 3,8,9 with 1,3,8,9 $48.00

A's with One C

$0.50 P4: 1,2,5,7 with 3 with 8 with 8 $2.00
$0.50 P4: 4 with 2,5,7 with 8 with 8 $1.50
$0.50 P4: 4 with 3 with 1,2,4,5,6,7 with 8 $3.00
$0.50 P4: 4 with 3 with 8 with 2,5,6,7,10,11 $3.00

Total: $58.50

Post Time for Race 5 is 9:59 EST / 6:59 PST.  Good luck to all.

Peace and Love,

Jimbo
