Street Boss is poised for a chance at the Breeders Cup Sprint!

Street Boss is poised for a chance at the Breeders Cup Sprint!

I’d say my selections were pretty damn good Saturday. Commentator got home for me, and I gave out a $1 trifecta in that race worth $312. I also had the winner in the Vanderbilt, and I gave out the trifecta which was worth $67.50.  I hope you played it, because unfortunately I did not. Lets take a look at the races for Sunday and see if we can keep this momentum going.

Jim Dandy (Grade 2)

I don’t like morning line favorite Pyro in this spot. I don’t know if anyone has noticed, but he has NEVER won past a 1 1/16. I will look to Wood Memorial winner, Tale of Ekati to get the job done. He should lay close to the speed and make a move late at odds of 10-1. I also like Mint Lane to hold on for a piece.

1st- Tale of Ekati (10-1)
2nd- Mint Lane (5-2)
3rd- Macho Again (10-1)

WIN on TALE OF EKATI
$1 Trifecta (3,5/3,5,7/ALL)
$1 Superfecta (3,5/3,5/1,4,7,8/1,4,7,8)

Bing Crosby (Grade 1)

Its hard to go against morning line favorite Street Boss in this race. He has been bulletproof lately, and I believe he will be a top contender for the Breeders Cup Sprint. “The Boss” will roll late and flatten this field. In Summation should also be moving late. He is clearly the second best horse in the race on paper. Any number of horses could pick up third. Given the odds,  I wouldn’t stick too much money in your exotic wagers. I encourage you to bet Street Boss to win if you can get his morning line odds of 9/5.

1st- Street Boss (9/5)
2nd- In Summation (7/2)
3rd- Jungle Prince (15-1)

WIN on STREET BOSS
$1 Trifecta (1/4/2,3,5,7,9)
