FRIDAY, JANUARY 5
SPOT PLAYS
GULFSTREAM
Race 1
#6 Meant Tobe Mine
Plus play an exacta box w/#7 Mojo’s Queen
#6 Meant Tobe Mine is in good form with two recent wins and a third, including a win on this course two races ago, and looms the only true turf sprinter in this field with the correct front-running style in a race filled with mid-matched horses that will be too far back off the pace.
Play in exacta box w/ #7 Mojo’s Queen, who is the obvious exacta horse along with the top pick based on his better short turf sprint efforts from good pace stalking position. Got claimed out of her last race by Bob Dibona who has won with a big 5 of his last 10 horses first time out off the claim. Dibona teams up with Luis Saez, and the trainer/jockey combination has won three of their 4 races together her at Gulfstream Park.
Race 9
#4 Newmans Fast Girl
Tough z-pattern trip last time out in defeat has a bad field and the Wesley Ward first-time starter to beat, but if that horse was actually that good she would not be starting her career in a maiden claiming race like this. This horse showed potential at this level in the career debut with a second-place finish here, and she will be very difficult to beat versus these with anything close to a repeat of that effort.
