May as well add this here. Quick analysis of race 8 today at Hollywood.
Horse 1 - Twirling Candy is the clear favorite. Won 7 out of last 9 races.
Horse 2 - Miss Match has no shot.
Horse 3 - Setsuko is a horse that loves to finish 2nd, and did so in 5 of his last 8 races. He'll fight for it too. Just doesn't get the concept of winning.
Horse 4 - Game On Dude will run for this jockey (Sutherland). He won for her by a nose the only time they paired up, and ran his best speed number. In the mix.
Horse 5 - Awesome Gem meets a fading condition for me. Out.
Horse 6 - Soul Candy. Outside shot
Horse 7 - First Dude has changed running style under Baffert, and won his last two races. Outside shot.
Horse 8 - Dark Cover. Dark indeed.
Not much value here with the favorite. Picks: 1, 3, 4.
