There is plenty of great horse racing action to look forward to across America on Sunday, including at Aqueduct and Santa Anita race tracks. We have been in fine form with our picks for a long time, up 255.45 units dating back to August 5.
Here are 4 runners we expect to perform well today. It’s time to dive in and discuss these potentially profitable plays.
2:18 pm Aqueduct (Race 4) – Morello 9/5
Life is Great has caught the eye in two recent starts, not just because of his name, but Morello is an exciting son of Classic Empire and looks set to upstage the favourite. He cost $250,000 as a juvenile and made a winning debut at Aqueduct over six furlongs in November. That form has been heavily boosted since, with the well-beaten second posting a big figure to graduate next time out. Steve Asmussen’s charge should relish an extra furlong and with any amount of improvement under the hood, he could be set for a very exciting campaign.
3:22 pm Aqueduct (Race 6) – Kept Waiting 4/1
4:25 pm Aqueduct (Race 8) – Shotgun Hottie 5/2
7:12 pm Santa Anita (Race 8) – Happy Jack 6/1
A son of Oxbow, he really caught the eye when scoring over six furlongs at Santa Anita in January. Totally unfancied in the market, he rallied strongly in the stretch and won with plenty in hand, despite clearly needing further. His pedigree backs up the theory that he’ll improve markedly for this stretch out in distance and given that he’s likely to be ridden patiently, plenty of scrimmaging for the early lead will help matters. At 6-1, he looks to have been totally overlooked.
