A calculated risk

At 9h00, on July 31, 2018 By Christian Gendron

On July 31st at Parx in the 7th race (6 Furlongs | Main) bet on No 5 Saratoga Wildcat (6/1). No 1 Hey Jabber Jaw seems to be the horse to beat but since he was claimed on April 12th ($ 40,000), he has been listed five times but retired for various reasons four times. Today, he will be claiming for $ 16,000 so although he seems the fastest in the group, this horse must not be healthy and the red flag is needed. No 6 Ruble shows us two consecutive victories, the last by half a length against my choice of today No 5 Saratoga Wildcat who in this defeat was on his first start in two months. He should be more alert for this second start in fifteen days.

Jockey: Ruben Silvera 12 % — Coach: Joseph Taylor 19 %

Proposed bet: July 31st, Parx, race 7

Win Placed: $ 10 on horse No 5

(Win: the horse chosen must finish first at the finish line)

(Placed: the chosen horse must finish among the first two at the finish line)

Exacta: Exacta at $ 3 on horses 5 with 1,4,6 and at 1 $ 1,4,6 with 5

(Exacta: Choose two horses that must finish first and second, in the chosen order)

Trifecta: Trifecta at $ 1 on the No.5 with 1,3,4,6, 1 $ on the 5 with 1,4,6 with 1,3,4,6,7 and 1 $ on the 1,4, 6 with 5 with 1,3,4,6,7

(Trifecta: Choose the three horses that will finish in order at the finish line)
