SLEW'S FAST HORSES FOR WED. 07/17

Hello All! For Wednesday July 17th, welcome Del Mar!

Woodbine - 2,3
Del Mar - 1,2,4,6,7,9,10

Seven races to work with at Del Mar on opening day including 3 horses in the 2nd division of the Oceanside Stakes that will try and beat Mr. Bafferts entry of Den's Legacy (7-2 ML). And while the master trainer has been successful at amassing a bankroll for Den's account of 400K on only 2 wins, the horse is beaten over and over.

We'll attempt to get him with Rosengold (9-2 ML) who will try to wire the field and is fast enough to do it. 4 for 5 lifetime and running for the quietly winning at 24% Julio Canini, this grandson of Stormy Atlantic...I favor him greatly as a sire...will give this guy a run for his money. I am always ticked off when Baffert beats me out on the left coast because it often just seems futile to bet against him. I do it anyway.

The two others in this race on Slew's list are Gabriel Charles (5-1 ML) and Joelito (5-1 ML). I will use them along with Rosengold in a double with In a Wine Tizzy (9-2 ML) in the 10th. While this one is a chronic loser...and I usually ignore the chronic losers in maiden races...this drop from MSW to 20K claiming might be the tonic needed to get that first...and maybe only win.

That is, unless the AE Wildcat Candy gets in. Then...I'll think about it. You can grab the file off the site and look at all the horses listed...and decide for yourself. No serious plays for me these days...I'm saving them for the Spa.

Whatever and however you play, enjoy opening day at Del Mar. I'm happy to have the day off and will do the next best thing to being there.

Enjoy the Wednesday racing...good luck and good 'capping!
