Del Mar
A persevering horse
At 9h00, on August 8, 2018 • By Christian Gendron
On August 8th at Del Mar in the 7th race (1 Mile | Dirt), a Win and placed bet of $ 20 on No 6 Show me Da Lute (6/1) and an Exacta at $ 3 on 6 with 1,5 , a $ 1 Exacta on horses Nos 1,5 with 6 and a $ 2 Trifecta on 6 with 1,5 with all, a Trifecta on 1,5 with 6 with all and a Trifecta Key on 6 with all. This race is very well balanced, No 1 Canadian Game should appreciate the curves more courteous in Del mar than those of Los Alamitos which are very severe. No 4 Super Duper Cooper has just won in this distance but is riding a lot of class and will need to improve his time, which is normally difficult to do when climbing a few classes. No 3 Divisor and 5 River Echo beat my choice today in their last race and River Echo was very impressive. No 6 Da Lute was in his first start of the season. He tried to place himself in the leader group from ninth position, he crossed the first ¼ mile in the seventh path because all the horses inside had the same strategy and he passed the majority of the race in the third and fourth paths and despite everything, he finished a few lengths of the leaders.
