Tipsheet:  Florida 12\/22"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Nice race conditions continue to follow the Spotlight as it crosses from track to track.\u00a0 This time it makes a stop in Florida and fast conditions with overcast skies but no threat of foul weather.\u00a0 Here are my picks for each of the seven carded races:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Race 1\u00a0 Starter Allowance\u00a0 Race ID :\u00a0<b>1592454<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1-Dino Baggio\u00a0 9\/5-Won last two with latest at 10 furlongs.\u00a0 Only concern is shipping from overseas.<\/p>\n<p>8-Futzing Around\u00a0 9\/5-Nice 100 speed in last at 8.5 furlongs but can handle longer distance, a threat to top pick.<\/p>\n<p>3-Desert Stroll\u00a0 7\/2-A threat when in claiming level.\u00a0 Starter Allowance not much different then claim level, factor in this one.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Race 2 \u00a0 Claim \u00a0\u00a0Race ID :\u00a0<b>1593142<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>3- On The Improve\u00a0 3\/2-Has record of 3-3-2 over last eight starts.\u00a0\u00a0 Faces tough group here but she&#8217;s a toughy herself.<\/p>\n<p>1-Stratfordpalooza\u00a0 5\/2-Dips out of allowance into high end claimers.\u00a0 Resides at Florida race track and has 11 wins in 22 lifetime starts.\u00a0 Class drop could add boost.<\/p>\n<p>4-Big Band Era\u00a0 2\/1-Third with local breds in last with 99 speed.\u00a0\u00a0 Cannot rule out.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Race 3\u00a0 Allowance\u00a0\u00a0 Race ID :\u00a0<b>1593242<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>4-In The Sin Bin\u00a0 8\/5-Has won twice on poly surface in two starts and last charted 86 speed in April which fits well in this field, slight advantage.<\/p>\n<p>3-Achilles Punks\u00a0 4\/5-Long time poly surface runner has seen speeds drop over the year.\u00a0 Could pull things back together.<\/p>\n<p>5-Woop Another\u00a0 7\/1-Makes first poly start of career.\u00a0 Speeds over turf look better than remainder of field.\u00a0 Gets a piece of the purse.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Race 4\u00a0 Allowance\u00a0\u00a0 Race ID :\u00a0<b>1595388<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>5-Spring Hilled\u00a0 1\/5-Speeds of 99 and 100 over last two are tops in this field.\u00a0 Has been first or second in last 8 starts which include five wins.\u00a0 Best bet.<\/p>\n<p>4-Before Too Long\u00a0 3\/1-Drops out of route to 7.5f sprint.\u00a0 Front runner may benefit with shorter distance.<\/p>\n<p>6-FB Song\u00a0 11\/1-Speeds have moved upward from low 80&#8217;s to mid 80&#8217;s recently, could be blooming.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Race 5\u00a0 Claim\u00a0\u00a0 Race ID :\u00a0<b>1587017<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>8-Legal Critic\u00a0\u00a0 6\/1-Pair of 92 speeds in last two starts.\u00a0 Drops down claim ranks and offers some value here.<\/p>\n<p>11-Bonderaben\u00a0 5\/2-Speeds of 90+ in last five reflect a solid runner.\u00a0 A contender.<\/p>\n<p>2-Altar Bound\u00a0 5\/1-Can run better than last start which was first race back after 6-month layoff.\u00a0 Expecting bigger things this time out.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Race 6\u00a0 Claim\u00a0\u00a0 Race ID :\u00a0<b>1607528<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>8-Alex&#8217;s Notion\u00a0 9\/2-Top three finishes in six of last seven dirt appearances.\u00a0\u00a0 Pretty open race that several horses could nab, going with this one.<\/p>\n<p>3-McGilton\u00a0 9\/2-Flows out of allowance\/listed stakes races that he&#8217;s been competing in since the Spring this year, class change could be beneficial.<\/p>\n<p>9-Carletti\u00a0 13\/1-Has done well in claimers in the past, offers nice value.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Race 7\u00a0\u00a0 Claim\u00a0 Race ID :\u00a0<b>1590330<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1-Sloppy Ride\u00a0 3\/2-Going long 12 furlongs for first time but speed numbers have been fine an looking better than foes.\u00a0 Gets this if he doesn&#8217;t tire.<\/p>\n<p>7-Coosa River 22\/1-Won easily against older by two strides at 38\/1 and 11 furlongs in first career start.\u00a0 Could upset again.<\/p>\n<p>2-Noble Fever\u00a0 8\/5-Broke maiden in last going 11 furlongs but took 16 tries to do so.\u00a0 Speeds not inspiring but swaps over to turf for first time, may find a new preference.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nice race conditions continue to follow the Spotlight as it crosses from track to
