There is plenty of great horse racing action to look forward to across America on Monday, including at Parx race track. We have been in fine form with our picks, up 233.05 units dating back to Aug. 5. We wrapped up 2021 by picking 3 winners in 4 races on Friday, including 2 at +350 for a total profit of 11.6 units. On Sunday we went 2 for 3, including a winner with our 3-star best bet. Let’s keep the momentum going!
Here are three runners whom we expected to have a leg up on the rest of the competition. It’s time to dive in and discuss these potentially profitable plays.
1:58 pm Parx (Race 5) – Burano 5/2
Placed on all three previous starts the selection made the step up to state-bred stakes company when finishing runner-up, beaten five-and-three-quarter-lengths having raced from off the pace in the six furlong Shamrock Rose Stakes at Penn National in November. Shapes as if this step up in distance will suit and with a good jockey in Frankie Pennington booked to ride she is take to get off the mark at the fourth attempt following a 50.06 four furlong breeze here.
2:25 pm Parx (Race 6) – Big Beautiful Wall 5/2
Has looked to be on the downgrade in recent times but he has performed with credit in stronger races in his two most recent starts including when fifth in a $12,500 claiming contest over a mile-and-seventy-yards on his first start at this venue last month. Tackles a slightly shorter distance here and representing a leading stable looks capable of registering a first victory since November 2020 dropping to a $5,000 claiming contest with Wesley Torres in the saddle.
3:19 pm Parx (Race 8) – Pecan Pattie 3/1
Placed on all three starts since returning to this venue following a spell in New York that culminated in success in a $5,000 claiming contest over this distance at Monmouth Park at the start of September. Latest effort saw the daughter of Afleet Express debut for trainer Scott Lake with a two-and-a-quarter length second over this trip and tackling the same grade here she can register a seventh career success with a top jockey in Ruben Silvera up.
