TRI’s Picks May 5 Balmoral


Balmoral Park Pick 4, Races 10-13, Saturday, May 5, 2012

After a week off, I am back and ready for the Balmoral Pick 4. Tonight’s ticket looks really good. We remember as usual to bet horses to win that are only 4-1 and up. Good luck!

$2 Play: 2,9/3,5/6/4 = $8

Analysis:

Race 10- (2) Fox Valley Yukon finally gets some post relief against the top group. He is very competitive against this group week to week and should be able to do better as he draws post 2. (9) So Be It looks to win his third Invitational in a row. He goes against a stronger field than last time and a weaker field than his first time out. He will have to charge out of the gate or be able to close really well from post 9.

Race 11- (3) Sports Fanatic was nipped at the wire last time he was in this class. That was from post 8 and he gets post 3 this week, so he’ll definitely be in the top 3. (5) Star City Hero gets post relief after a third place finish in this company from post 10. He does well in this company and should do even better when leaving the gate from the middle.

Race 12-
(6) My Dream Mara couldn’t handle post nine in the slop. Before that, she was a valiant third from post 10. She comes from post 6 this time and should be able to get the victory.
 
Race 13- (4) Major Worries returns to Balmoral after a great try at Maywood in this class. Although he did not do well in this class at Bamoral last time, he gets some post relief this time and should be able to improve.
