Wednesday Del Mar Recap – August 29
Polytrack played fair with two sprint wire jobs. Patient types best on turf (rail at 14 feet).
Rafael Bejarano, Garrett Gomez, and Edwin Maldonado each booted home a pair.
On the ticket front I tabbed three Primary (Ukraine James, You’re Joking, Tilde) winners and one Secondary (Huntsville) winner. I finished 2nd with a pair of Primary (Princess Ash, Mary Helen’s Storm) contenders in the two races I missed…gave it a run. Carryover into Aug 30.
Thursday’s Pick 6 ($93,491 carryover)
Degree of Difficulty: Competitive (7/10)
Possible Singles: Lucky Primo (8th race), Bud’s Pal (9th race)
Best Bet: This Means War (5th race)
Live Longshot: Silver Lightning (6th race)

Thursday Pick 6 Tickets
Note that the Standard Ticket shows how much it would cost if you used all of the contenders on one ticket. The multiple Primary/Secondary ticket strategy saves money and allows you to put your strong handicapping opinions to the test.


Pretty big fields in the sequence today. I think I’ll pass and play the double carryover tomorrow.
It is another competitive sequence with decent field sizes. Tough opening leg getting ready to go now.
You were wise to skip today’s pick 6, KRO. Nice call on the double carryover – $432,260!
