Here are some horses I’m taking a look at today at Oak Tree:
1 — Um Amor Impossivel — Gryder stays with him and he finished a decent third in a race whose winner came back to score in his next outing as well. A mile and a quarter can be a tricky distance, but this guy has a second in two tries going that long. Dust Cover also looks interestig, but he might need one more race.
2 — One Sock Wonder looks like a daily double and pick three single. He’s solid, but will go off too low for me to play separately.
5 — Khyber Pass has the speed to wire this field if he’s ready to fire following an eight-month layoff. Looking to make a big score in the tri or superfecta? Here are some possible long shots that deserve a look — Tricky Flash Flood, Witness This, Crosscut, Summer Guide and Mortal Rush.
7 — Let’s go grocery shopping and look at Sunset Place, Indian Weaver, General Celmar and R Striker. For those brave enough, throw in Daywood in a stab at the trifecta.
8 — My best bet of the day. Marked Warrior is a solid play with the underrated Michael Baze in the saddle.
10 — Like Running Water could go gate to wire and make it a very chalky late double.
