ELLIS PARK PICKS -- 7/16/22

A hot summer day in Henderson, KY for racing at Ellis Park. And tough-to-handicap, competitive fields, as well.in the "pea patch".  As I've tried to do, I stick with the Kentuckt tracks -- the racing is undoubtedly better at Saratoga today, but I'm not as comfortable handicapping the New York Jockey colony or trainers -- muxh less the horses. So, it's off to Ellis I go: 


RACE 6

10 -- LAVISH HABITS

6 -- AMARI'S IMAGE

7 -- FANCY MARTINI

2 -- MAMA RINA

(IF SCRATCHES OCCUR -- 8 -- LADY ARSINOE)


RACE 7 

2 -- LEGIONNAIRE

3 -- WHAT'S UP DOC

6 -- UNCLE BERLEY

9 -- KINGFISHER

(IF SCRATCHES OCCUR -- 8 -- BLOW TORCH)


RACE 8 

6 -- CURRENT

8 -- BAMA BREEZE

5 -- NEXT

2 -- INTRADAY

( IF SCRATCHES OCCUR -- 7 -- ATTORNEY TIM)


RACE 9 

1 -- STELLA TERESA

3 -- RATHER BE LUCKY

5 -- TWENTYTWENTYHOAX

10 -- GET BY

( IF SCRATCHES OCCUR -- 6 -- BALI GOWN)


Good luck today and I'll try to get back to the site and make any changes, if necessary.

ELLIS PARK PICKS 7/9/22

 The Kentucky horse racing circuit goes to Ellis Park for a couple of months now. It's not the greatest racing in the nation and the jockey colony isn't nearly as strong as it was at Keeneland or Churchill Downs, but the cards are full, they have turf racing and it's interesting handicapping. 

The exotics could pay a bunch today in this opening weekend. Since the best race of the day is arguably the fifth race, I've handicapped the final five races on the card. 


RACE 5 

1 -- SPEEDOMETER

3 -- DIVINE CHARGER

2 -- LITTLE MAMBO

4 -- BLAZING SUMMER

(IF SCRATCHES OCCUR -- 6-- MYSTIQUE SABOTEUR)


RACE 6

3 -- STAR POSE

10 -- SHE HAS THE LOOK

1 -- SICILIAN GRANDMA

4 -- LADY EVELYN CAN

(IF SCRATCHES OCCUR -- 9 -- BECKY THATCHER)


RACE 7 

7 -- REWARD NIGHT

10 -- COURAGEOUSLY

4 -- COOL RAGS

6 -- ELEVEN CONTROL

(IF SCRATCHES OCCUR -- 1 -- UNINVITED GUEST)


RACE 8 

2 -- QUEENS UP

4 -- REAGAN'S DECISION

9 -- CONSTITUTION LADY

1 -- TACHLIS

(IF SCRATCHES OCCUR -- 3 -- CHASING FIREFLIES)


RACE 9 

1 -- SHOGUN WARRIOR

9 -- HE'S AN ANGEL

2 -- OLD HICKORY

3 -- MY BROTHER CAM 

(IF SCRATCHES OCCUR -- 12 -- FIELD MARSHAL)



Good luck today and play 'em anyway you like !
