12/18/20 Remington Park All-Stakes Pick Four - Preview

"When you learn, teach. When you get, give." - Maya Angelou

It's Springboard Mile Day at Remington Park, and the fine folks in Oklahoma City have put together a wonderful program containing a half dozen stakes, featured among them the juvenile contest with Road to the Kentucky Derby points on the line.  So with that let's get to it, as I take a run at The Primetime All-Stakes Pick Four at Remington Park.

RACE 10 - (F) [S] The Useeit $70k - Eight Furlongs Dirt

A’s

# 7 She's All Wolfe (Morning Line 2-1)

B's

# 6 Jessie's Valentine (ML 12-1)

# 10 Tiztheboss (ML 5-1)

C's

# 1 Special Treasure (ML 12-1)

# 3 Polly Tiz (ML 12-1)
# 4 Love Ya Most (ML 10-1)
# 5 Kallie Sioux (ML 8-1)
# 8 Dipping In (ML 9-2)

# 9 The One for Fun (ML 15-1)

Scratch # 2 Juliard Honor (ML 20-1)

She's All Wolfe, winner of the Oklahoma Classics Distaff last time out, and the Oklahoma Stallion Fillies in her start before that, is undefeated in four tries over this main track.  Jessie's Valentine could improve with the stretch out.

Tiztheboss was quickest early last time out against open (non-State bred restricted) company.  The backup "C" Selections are the rest of the field.

RACE 11 - (F) The Trapeze $60k - Eight Furlongs Dirt

A’s

# 2 Oliviaofthedesert (ML 7-2)

B's

# 5 Silver Devil (ML 10-1)

# 7 Tiz Splendid News (ML 5-1)

# 10 Simply Sovereign (ML 6-1)

C's

# 3 Cecile's Chapter (ML 4-1)

# 4 Sorority Row (ML 20-1)

# 6 Paydiem (ML 12-1)
# 8 Fast N Fine Worker (ML 10-1)

# 9 Credit Enhancement (ML 10-1)

# 11 Run Slewpy Run (ML 20-1)

Scratch # 1 Miss Twenty (ML 10-1)

Oliviaofthedesert has been showing steady improvement in each of her six career starts.  Silver Devil, trained by Steve Asmussen, looked good in winning her debut at eight furlongs last time out.

Tiz Splendid News, reeled in by Oliviaofthedesert last time out, could show more stamina tonight getting Lasix for the first time.  Simply Sovereign, stablemate of Silver Devil in the barn of Trainer Steve Asmussen, is two-for-two over this main track; though victory number two did come via DQ.  The backup "C" Selections are everyone else.

RACE 12 - The Springboard Mile $400k - Eight Furlongs Dirt

A’s

# 10 Joe Frazier (ML 5-1)

B's

# 1 Senor Buscador (ML 15-1)

# 8 Cowan (ML 4-1)

# 9 Outadore (ML 3-1)

C's

# 2 Number One Dude (ML 6-1)

# 3 Vim and Vigor (ML 20-1)
# 4 Gushing Oil (ML 15-1)
# 5 Red N Wild (ML 12-1)

# 6 Game Day Play (ML 10-1)

# 7 Saffa's Day (ML 10-1)

# 11 Flash of Mischief (ML 15-1)

Joe Frazier, trained by Brad Cox, ran out of gas in the slop at Churchill Downs last time out and had to settle for the Show; perhaps getting Lasix for the first time will get Joe Frazier into the winner's circle.  Senor Buscador ran well in his debut last time out once he realized that there was a race going on and he was in it.

Cowan and Outadore, trained by Steve Asmussen and Wesley Ward, respectively, hit the board in separate Breeders' Cup turf contests last month, and therefore must be respected on class, despite the surface switch.  The backup "C" Selections are the rest of the field.

RACE 13 - The Jeffrey A. Hawk Memorial $60k - Eight and a Third Furlongs Dirt

A’s

# 2 Hunka Burning Love (ML 3-1)

B's

# 6 Plainsman (ML 9-2)

# 8 Popularity (ML 10-1)

# 10 Summer Revolution (ML 10-1)

C's

# 1 Vangilder (ML 5-1)

# 4 Fast Breakin Cash (ML 15-1)

# 5 Drifting West (ML 15-1)

# 9 Rotation (ML 15-1)

# 11 Box Seat (ML 15-1)

Scratch # 3 Quality Rocket (ML 20-1); # 7 American Dubai (ML 10-1); and # 12 Signalman (ML 6-1)

Hunka Burning Love, winner of the $100k Delta Mile last time out, has run well in the past over this main track.  Plainsman and Popularity are two that could improve going second off an extended layoff.

Summer Revolution was a clear winner last time out versus a next out victor, and appears to be in fine form.  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: 7 with 2 with 10 with 2 $1.00

All A Entries with All B Entries

$0.50 P4: 6,7,10 with 2,5,7,10 with 1,8,9,10 with 2,6,8,10 $96.00

A's with One C

$0.50 P4: 1,3,4,5,8,9 with 2 with 10 with 2 $3.00

$0.50 P4: 7 with 3,4,6,8,9,11 with 10 with 2 $3.00

$0.50 P4: 7 with 2 with 2,3,4,5,6,7,11 with 2 $3.50

$0.50 P4: 7 with 2 with 10 with 1,4,5,9,11 $2.50

Total: $109.00

Post Time for Race 10 is 10:25 EST / 7:25 PST.  Good luck to all.

Peace and Love,
