Let’s get to the pick of the day!

Race-time: 6:37 pm est.

Oak Tree (Santa Anita) - - Race 6

Optional Claimer

$62,500 n1x

1 1/16th miles on turf

Street Match - - 6/1 online betting odds

This daughter of Street Cry will be trying turf for the first time. That’s not the only reason to like her. First, she gets Joel Rosario who just knows how to ride horses. Then, she gets a nice inside post from where Joel can save ground around both turns. Finally, she comes out of a Danzig mare which means she should relish the turf. 2 wins and 2 thirds out of 6 lifetime races means she deserves top billing in this affair.

Eclatante - - 10/1 online betting odds

There isn’t a whole lot of speed in this race which means this daughter of In Excess could pop at a nice price. She should get an easy lead, is switching to a turf trainer and jockey, and will get lost in the online betting since she gets into this after running at Emerald Downs. She could lead this field a long way.

Silver Swallow - - 5/2 online betting odds

She will be facing a much easier group than she has in her last five or six races. But the fact that she has never raced on the grass should be a concern. I expect her online odds to drop as she finished third to Zenyatta two races back. Nobody else comes close to anything like that in this race.

Wagering Strategy

Street Match should hold her online wagering odds which means an online bet to win and place are in order. I will also put into an exacta and trifecta box with Eclatante and Silver Swallow.

Good Luck!
