A lot of guts
At 9h00, on September 12, 2018 • By Christian Gendron
On September 12th in Thistledown in the 5th race (1 mile | Dirt), a Win and Placed bet on No 3 Tickety Boo (3/1), an Exacta on 3 with 1,4,5,6, an Exacta on 1,4,5,6 with 3 and a Key Trifecta on 3 with 1,4,5,6,7. In this group of seven horses, if we look only at their last start, they are all to be feared but if we look at their results over a longer period, this race should be a race for three. No 4 Tickle me Pink returns to the class in which he just follows the parade because the fractions always seem too fast for him. No 6 Nippy’s Venture (5/2) is the favorite. With two wins in a row, he likes to have the lead and manage the speed of the group but when they are some leaders, he does not like to be looked in the eye. In other words, if a horse goes up to his height and looks in the eye at the entrance of the right, he is inclined to let go. No 3 Tickety Boo shows us a lot of guts and wins this kind of battle no matter the fractions.
