11/28/20 Remington Park Primetime Pick Four - Preview

"Reflect upon your present blessings, of which every man has plenty; not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some." - Charles Dickens

As the holiday weekend continues on in the USA, hopefully all of you, wherever you may be, are continually finding things for which to be grateful.  So with that let's just get to it, as I take another run at The Primetime Pick Four at Remington Park.

RACE 6 - Clm $25k - Five and a Half Furlongs Dirt

A’s

# 5 Drc All Inclusive (Morning Line 2-1)

B’s

None

C's

# 1 J C's Nightcap (ML 10-1)
# 2 Daaher's Success (ML 5-1)
# 3 Bourbon Cowboy (ML 7-2)
# 4 He's Munnie (ML 6-1)
# 6 Game Loading (ML 8-1)
# 7 Trumpence (ML 8-1)

Note that the Claiming Price for Oklahoma breds in this contest is $30k; so if you want to purchase Daaher's Success at the claiming box, it'll cost you an extra five grand.

If you're going to single, might as well do it in the first leg and get it over with.  Drc All Inclusive took the Place at this class level two starts back over this main track.  Speaking of this main track, Drc All Inclusive has finished in the Trifecta fifteen of the the sixteen times that he has competed on the Remington Park dirt.  So it's Drc All Inclusive solo on the main ticket, with all others being used as backup "C" Selections.

RACE 7 - Clm $25k N3L - Five and a Half Furlongs Dirt

A’s

# 1 Sermon by the Sea (ML 5-2)

B’s

# 3 Oh What Luck (ML 2-1)

# 5 Good Scout (ML 15-1)

C's

# 2 Something Super (ML 3-1)

# 4 Word to the Wise (ML 10-1)

# 6 Heritage Park (ML 8-1)

Scratch # 7 Moro Said Ready (ML 20-1)

As in the prior event, Oklahoma breds will cost you $5k more; so if you want Oh What Luck or Word to the Wise, then they will cost you thirty thousand dollars each.

Sermon by the Sea took the Place at this class level last time out, while disappointing as the Post Time Favorite.  Good Scout is getting some class relief while going second off the claim for Trainer J. R. Caldwell, who tends to do well with such.

Oh What Luck is a perfect two-for-two in his racing career, and is returning to competition after an absence of over a year.  If Oh What Luck can return to the form that he showed in 2019, then Oh What Luck will win this one for fun.  On the other hand, if his connections thought that Oh What Luck could return to the form that he showed in 2019, then he probably wouldn't be up for sale here.  The backup "C" Selections are everyone else.

RACE 8 - (F) ALW N1X - Six Furlongs Dirt

A's

# 5 Staythirstymyamigo (ML 6-1)

B's

# 1 Nautical Gem (ML 7-5)

C's

# 2 Big Tiny (ML 3-1)

# 3 Bonnet (ML 5-2)
# 4 Tell Me U Love Me (ML 20-1)
# 6 Whew (ML 20-1)

Staythirstymyamigo was victorious last time out in her first try over this main track; and Staythirstymyamigo appears to be in sharp enough form to handle the rise in class.  Nautical Gem took the Show at this class level the last time that she competed on the main track.  The backup "C" Selections are the rest of the field.

RACE 9 - Clm $7.5k N3L - Eight Furlongs Dirt

A’s

# 8 Cairo King (ML 7-2)

B’s

# 2 C H Jay (ML 8-1)

# 4 Knowyouroptions (ML 2-1)

# 6 Staccato (ML 30-1)

# 9 Clifton Park (ML 5-1)

# 11 Port Hunter (ML 6-1)

C's

# 1 Nacogdoches (ML 10-1)

# 3 Charlie's Schiller (ML 15-1)

# 5 With the Band (ML 30-1)

# 7 Bell Ringer (ML 20-1)

# 10 Bernardian (ML 30-1)

The Claiming Price for Oklahoma breds in this contest is $10k; or, rather, it would be, were there any Oklahoma breds in this field.

Three starts back, Cairo King took the Place at this class level.  Two starts back, in his most recent dirt start, Cairo King crossed under the wire first at this class level, though he was disqualified and placed fourth.

Knowyouroptions and C H Jay filled out the bottom two rungs of the Trifecta at this class level last time out.  Staccato goes first time for the barn of Trainer Randy Oberlander, who tends to do well with such.

Clifton Park took the Show against more expensive stock last time out; and while that contest was on the turf, note that Clifton Park is a lifetime two-for-seven on a Fast dirt track.

Port Hunter showed little last time out; but if Port Hunter can rebound to the form that he showed two starts back, then Port Hunter can contend here.  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: 5 with 1 with 5 with 8 $1.00

All A Entries with All B Entries

$0.50 P4: 5 with 1,3,5 with 1,5 with 2,4,6,8,9,11 $18.00

A's with One C

$0.50 P4: 1,2,3,4,6,7 with 1 with 5 with 8 $3.00

$0.50 P4: 5 with 2,4,6 with 5 with 8 $1.50

$0.50 P4: 5 with 1 with 2,3,4,6 with 8 $2.00

$0.50 P4: 5 with 1 with 5 with 1,3,5,7,10 $2.50

Total: $28.00

Post Time for Race 6 is 10:27 EST / 7:27 PST.  Good luck to all.

Peace and Love,
