HANDICAPPING HEROES - 6/18/2016
It's night racing at Churchill tonight for Saturday's card...Stephen Foster Night...and our handicappers have been busy scouring the impressive card for winners. We have five races on the Churchill Downs card to present to you.
RACE 2 - Optional Claiming $55,000
Scott Harris liked this race a lot and provided us his selections.
(6) Ivy Bell is his top choice. Ricardo Santana Jr. rides for Steve Asmussen and finished a close second last time out at Churchill. Scott also likes (1) Game Time Decision, (4) Northern Michigan and (2) Laxfield Road.
RACE 6 - FLEUR DE LIS HANDICAP GR II $200,000
Archie Karel looked at this opener for the late Pick 4 and came up with these suggestions.
(1) Untapable is his top choice. The horse is 3 for 3 at Churchill and should be the favorite. Archie also rates (4) Ahh Chocolate having a chance here..two wins and a second at Churchill. He tosses (6) Brooklynsway in as a trifecta round out selection.
RACE 7 - WISE DAN GR 11 $200,000
Both our handicappers tackled this tough test over the turf at a 1 1/16 mile distance. Scott gives us (2) The Pizza Man, (1) Thatcher Street, (8) Pleuven and (4) Flatlined as his top four. Archie counters with (1) Thatcher Street, (2) The Pizza Man (9) Za Approval and (5) Conquest Typhoon as the superfecta selections.
RACE 8 - STEPHEN FOSTER HANDICAP. GR I $500,000
Archie and Scott looked at the feature race tonight and came up with these runners. Scott gives us (3) Effinex (7) Eagle (6) Are You Kidding Me and (2) Bradester. Archie nearly the same with (3) Effinex, (7) Eagle, (2) Bradester and (4) Majestic Harbor.
RACE 9 - REGRET. GR III $100,000
A tough one for the Fillies and Mares on the turf at 1 1/8 miles. Scott offers (1) Wessex as his top pick, followed by (1) Gone Away, (4) Family Meeting, (11) Auntie Joy and (8) Dothraki Queen. Archie sees it a bit differently, pointing to (11) Auntie Joy to hit the wire first, followed by (5) Noble Beauty, (6) Try Your Luck and (8) Dothraki Queen.
Good luck to our handicappers and you tonight in what looks to be a fantastic night of racing under the stars and lights on Central Avenue!
